Breaking the holiday mould 🎄✨ Every year, as the holidays roll around, many of us find ourselves in the familiar routine: watching the parade or football, peeling potatoes, and baking pies. While these traditions can be comforting, they often come with surface-level conversations—weather, school grades, and other safe topics to avoid heated debates on politics or religion. But what if we could use this time to foster deeper connections? 🤔 Enter Better Conversations Week, first celebrated in 2022 thanks to Loren Ekroth of Conversation Matters. This initiative is aimed at improving the quality of interactions during the holiday season, providing a week-long opportunity to enhance our conversational skills. By planning ahead with thought-provoking questions and becoming better listeners, we can transform our holiday gatherings from habitual to meaningful. Imagine engaging with family and friends in ways that nourish your relationships and create lasting memories. To get started, try asking open-ended questions that invite more than a yes or no response. Show genuine interest in the answers and practice active listening. By investing a bit more effort, we can turn this festive season into a time of genuine connection and understanding. Let's embrace the spirit of Better Conversations Week and elevate our holiday experience. 🎉 #BetterConversations #HolidayConnections #FamilyTime
