The Soul Amplified Podcast
Soul Amplified is where you discover your soul and what has been holding you back from all your light. We explore the divine feminine, cyclical living, co-dependency, self improvement, and spirituality. Sometimes we toss in how all that impacts and mixes with business, reaching your goals, and your relationship with money. Your host, Vanessa Grace, is a life coach, a soul searcher, life long learner, reiki practitioner, tarot card reading, book loving, feminist and general bad ass. We like to have fun around here, learn a lot around here, and dig deep so we can grow big.

Making The "I" Message Work FOR You
Communication--ppfffft! It's so important and yet whhhhyyyyyyy is it so complicated to pull off? Today I dive into the famous "I" Message. There are so many ways to get it wrong, lets go over how to do it right!
The "I" Message (the extended version)
I feel _________ (emotion) when you __________ (factual observation) because _________ I (unfulfilled need, desire, hope, value, or expectation). I would like us to talk about this.
When to use it--When someone's actions have caused a reaction in you, and you would like to come together and clarify how to correct it.
Feelings--You're actually wanting to share an emotion, not just a feeling.
What the other person did--describe the behavior objectively, like a factual observation. Not with judgement words that are either insulting or diffuse what actually happened.
Why it bothered you--what value, hope, need, desire or expectation was not fulfilled by the other person's actions?
