I was stuck trying to figure out why I had amazing parents, and our relationship seemed fine, yet I felt like we weren't really connected ... like things between us were superficial.

I wanted a relationship with each of my parents like those from 90s sitcoms. So one day, I was über frustrated and decided to do something about it. I wrote down my feelings, had a super awkward talk with my parents, and set out trying out different things to see what connected us further.

Funny (and most unexpectedly) enough was the fact that I had to learn more about myself in order to be better in my relationship with my mom and dad. That's why I understanding yourself is the foundation to everything!

What's more is, I'm constantly asking, "Can you be more specific?"

I gain confidence when things are super clear. That's why when I was writing The Daring Dragonfly Method (TDDM for short) the goal was clarity in the quickest way possible because when I was attempting to figure this out on my own a few years ago, guessing at what to try next was incredibly frustrating.

And I decided, why not take what I learned and simplify that for application with other types of relationships and interactions ... hence, Conversations Made Effortless Through Awareness.

We all strive for connection, and what better way to make that a bit easier than by learning new skills and a few things about yourself too!
