Toward Equanimity

Virtual She’s Geeky — August 8, 2020

Session 2 / Space C

Convener: Shannon Casey https://shannoncasey.net/
Notes-taker(s): Shannon Casey

Tags for the session –

  • Perfectionism
  • Sense of urgency
  • Defensiveness
  • Quantity over quality
  • Only one right way
  • Either/or thinking
  • Power hoarding
  • Fear of open conflict

the link above is to an article I find really helpful in these conversations.

The article contains a definition and an antidote for each of the items I listed. 

Since this can be an overwhelming conversation for some folks, keeping to basics, having clear definitions and an antidote can support effective communication and next steps.
