Theatre of the Mind Podcast Episodes

This show features psychologist, and author Dr. Susan Campbell. Susan has worked as a professional coach for over 35 years. She is the author of The Couples Journey, Beyond the Power Struggle, and Getting Real.In her book, Saying What’s Real, Susan teaches us how to have more authentic communication, improve relationships, and being more fully in the present moment.

Dr. Campbell explains honest, authentic communication requires letting down guards and clearly expressing thoughts and feelings. The key is staying present in the moment. Dr. Campbell focuses on seven statements designed to enhance one’s capacity for love and trust by bringing their awareness into the spiritual practice of staying in the present moment. Learning to use such phrases as “Hearing you say that, I feel…” and “I hear you, and I have a different perspective” allows readers to clearly express themselves and remain present versus trying to control the future outcome. By relating more and controlling less, readers will see their communications take on a quality of caring, openness, and authenticity that naturally engenders respect and love from those they’re close to. After all, when communication skills grow healthier, healthier relationships can’t be far behind!
