Did you ever have a SLAM book growing up? I remember making one with my friends when I was in Junior High. (Yes, I’m old enough to have gone to junior high and not middle school). My friends and I recorded everything it the book-Our favorite bands, books, and movie lines. I’m sure we wrote […]
Digging a Little Deeper: September Sequencing

BUILDING effective communicators: The one who gives a monologue
The one who gives a monologue: This client has the opposite problem of the one who needs to be interrogated. If I ask anything about their weekend they start at 4 pm on Friday and give me a blow by blow account of every single thing they did. “I got on the bus and […]
BUILDING effective Communicators: Personal Narratives and the one who needs to be interrogated
One of the things that many of my clients struggle with is being able to share a simple story or information about what they have done during their day. If I ask them what they did or what they ate for lunch, they simply shrug and say, “I don’t know.” These same clients struggle […]
