  • Your presence is a present!
    Aug 22 2023
    Woweee! So many things are trying to grab our attention all the time, right? Technology, the latest TV show, that conversation happening on the other side of the room when you're already in a conversation where you're standing...and sometimes, it's hard to realise how this can be damaging. This week on the poddy, we're talking about the importance of presence, what takes us away from the present moment (see previous suggestions...) and what we can do to put ourselves back in the driver's seat and claim back our energy and focus (and reap the benefits). You're joined as always by teachers and facilitators Amanda and Skye, and a big shout out as always to the second love of our lives (after our doggos of course), our producer Liam. Wherever you're listening, this is The Back Row. OH! And before I forget, the app we mentioned in today's episode is called 'one sec' - described in the app store as a 'Screen Time Impulse Blocker'... sounds pretty useful to us!

  • How to have a difficult conversation!
    Aug 15 2023
    Another banger this week as we delve into the world of difficult conversations. We've all been there! It's never easy; it's much easier to ignore the elephant in the room and keep the peace... right? Wrong! When we choose to suppress instead of express how we're feeling, it can lead to things like resentment and feeling disconnected from the people we care about most. So jump on in and learn how to tackle that conversation you know you should have - it will strengthen your friendships and relationships and keep them that way. The acronym we refer to in this podcast comes from a book titled 'Nonviolent Communication' by Marshall B. Rosenberg and it is OFNR (Observations, Feelings, Needs, Request). Thanks as always to our legend of a producer, Liam - for keeping us humble! If you enjoyed this episode, we would love for you to help us get the word out there, share it on your socials and let us know your thoughts! You can find us at @thebackrowaus
