in their careers and their families to help them make sense of their parents' aging and their own aging.
Kari Berit creates a warm, safe, upbeat environment in which to deal with some of life's scariest questions using an "age-assertive" approach.

| "What Did You Say?" Learning more effective communication |
|
Communication is key at work and at home, but it's not a skill that comes
naturally. To become an effective communicator, we need to look at our own
communication style and how we interact with others. We also benefit from
learning assertive communication techniques, enabling us to avoid emotional
outbursts caused by defensive communication. Communicate in ways that make a
huge difference in your work and home life!
