Nate Guadagni welcomes special guest Jim Manske, author of Pathways to Nonviolent Communication, co-creator of PeaceWorks and an expert in Nonviolent Communication (NVC).

Together, they delve into the transformative power of NVC and explore the Pathways to Liberation Matrix, a tool designed to assess and enhance one's proficiency in NVC skills. Jim shares the story behind the creation of the matrix, emphasizing its focus on self-assessment and personal growth rather than judgment.

Through insightful anecdotes and practical examples, they illustrate how NVC fosters deeper connections, resolves conflicts, and cultivates empathy. Whether you're new to NVC or seeking to deepen your practice, this episode offers illuminating perspectives and practical guidance for living a more compassionate and fulfilling life.
