How to Recognize and Manage Defensiveness in Conversations
L'essentiel
- Defensiveness in conversations often stems from a protective reflex to one's ego or sense of self, triggered by perceived threats.
- Recognizing physical sensations like a racing heart or tightness in the chest can serve as early warning signs.
- Pausing to understand what feels threatened and acknowledging the other person's perspective can help shift from defensiveness to curiosity, improving communication and relationships.
