Conflict is not inherently bad. Let's do it better. Conflict is prolific, but in truth, conflict isn't bad, it's simply an exchange of information. Of course, sometimes we "exchange" in harmful ways, but ideally conflict is inherently neutral.    Lena Morgan is sharing how understanding the 5 Fight Languages can make conflict more productive for everyone involved, and leave each party feeling more understood.   This episode is a must-listen for anyone looking to improve their conflict resolution skills and gain a deeper understanding of themselves. In this episode: ·      What are the the 5 Fight Languages?  ·      Understanding the 5 types' "protective" AND "productive" reactions in a fight ·      What are "core wounds" and how do they impact the way we operate in conflict? ·      What to do if you shut down in conflict? If your partner does? ·      The power of awareness in changing behavior ·      When to decline an invitation to conflict ·      Why it's helpful to understand your fight language when "fighting with yourself"   The 5 Fight Languages: Ignitor - Lights the match that can burn an argument down Amplifier - Let's their emotions get louder until they feel seen Negotiator - Elevates self into role of parent / teacher / counselor Analyzer - Looks for logic, reason, and facts in an argument Extinguisher - Escapes, refuses to participate  Which one are you?
