My approach

Creative & whimsy

I often uses metaphors to illustrate my points. Here are some examples of things you can expect to talk about.

Metaphors

The Boat

Imagine you're in a boat. Happiness cannot depend on the presence or absence of situations. In this way, the boat must be able to stay afloat through sunshine or stormy weather.

The Relationship Basket

Imagine a basket between you & the other person.

Every positive action will add points; conversely every negative action will spend points. Positive actions can include compliments, quality time - etc. Negative actions can include flaking on engagements, transgressing boundaries, lies, omissions, insults - etc.

The goal is to accumulate points not deficits.

This metaphor illustrates how relationships are built. The basket symolizes the strength of the relationship.
