On three evenings, we conducted short workshops on the topic of compassionate communication at the Agnus Dei Lutheran Church in Gig Harbor, WA. They exchanged their own experiences with family conflicts, looking at 4-sides of a message by Friedmann Schulz von Thun and talked about empathic and compassionate communication. The participants were enthusiastic and want to deepen the topics further. We were invited to return May 2020.
