Do you long for a more peaceful, compassionate world?
Hello! I’m Siân Goodspeed.
I’m a mother, teacher, coach, business owner…and I’m sick and tired of all the division and conflict in the world.
On a global scale, within nations, in communities, in our homes (and don’t get me started on the internet!) people are arguing, judging, blaming, fighting and going to war.
But all is not lost! I believe we’re at the cusp of a shift towards a kinder, more harmonious world - and we all have a part to play in that shift.
Whether you’re dreaming of a world that’s safer for your children; craving a deeper connection with family and friends or striving for more collaboration and kindness in the workplace…you have the power within you to bring about change.
I do. And I know I’m not alone.
Imagine a world where we all view each other through the lens of compassion rather than judgement… and imagine viewing yourself through that same lens…That’s the world I want to live in.
I believe that the key to a peaceful world is compassionate connection…and this starts with how we communicate.
The first step is awareness. Of how we communicate - with others and ourselves - and the impact that has on those around us.
Because most of us have been trained to speak the language of ‘Jackal’: to judge, blame, criticise and demand. - It’s so deeply embedded into our society that we’re often unaware we’re speaking it.
The problem with Jackal language is that it breeds misunderstanding, frustration, shame and anger. It causes division between humans, leading to arguments, conflict and war.
The good news is, once we’re aware of our Jackal ways, we can choose a more connected, compassionate way of communicating: we can learn the language of ‘Giraffe’.
Through our words, body language…and emojis, our communication is constantly affecting others and therefore the world around us.
Would you like more peace and harmony in your own life?
Whether you’re sick of nagging and shouting at your kids or partner; fed up of toxic language in the workplace or on a mission to bring about change in the world, communication is key.
Because, as we transform how we communicate with those around us, we will foster more harmonious, connected relationships.
And, as more of us make this transformation in our own lives, we will send out ripples of compassion into the world - and collectively tip the balance into a new paradigm of big-hearted living.
