Communication Mastery: Making New Connections

Recorded just before her Italy retreat, Kristine shares how to move beyond the surface and create genuine intimacy in new relationships. Drawing from her experience working with women in retreat settings, she explains how simple gestures—like a warm greeting, smiling, or gentle touch—can melt away superficial barriers and allow us to meet each other in our shared humanity.

In this episode, you’ll learn how to:

• Offer a warm greeting that immediately softens barriers
• Use smiling, touch, and presence to create safety and warmth
• Open your heart so others feel truly seen
• Meet someone beyond the surface, in their humanity

She also reflects on how our triggers can be powerful teachers, guiding us toward deeper compassion—and how each new connection is an opportunity to practice intimacy, presence, and love.
