 Nonviolent Communication (NVC) is about empathy - about connecting from the heart.  NVC is helping people all over the world to transform their relationships and communication. 

NVC is sometimes referred to as "giraffe speech" or "giraffe language" because the giraffe has the largest heart of any land animal, and is always willing to stick its neck out.   A growing number of schools in the U.S. operate along the lines of giraffe speech. 

If you would like to learn more about NVC and empathy, I recommend you watch these six short films by Marshall Rosenberg. 

Plus The Listening Hour is held online every week.  Go here for more information and to book.  They also hold monthly face-to-face meetings in London.

I feel like the world is going crazy at the moment.  We have violence on the local, macro and global scales. 

In this most recent edition of my Success Strategies radio show, we talked about recent horrific incidents which took place in South London in the past few weeks. 

My guests were were Dr. Lynne Muhammad, founder of the STREAM Labs, and Pastor Charetta Hodge, who is on the ministerial staff of Christhood International Ministries of St. Louis.  Both of my guests attended the recent HWPL Peace Summit in South Korea, as did my Executive Producer Naimah Latif, an they share some of their experiences.
