How to respond empathetically to cues from others to foster a felt sense of safe and supportive connection
Many of us deeply desire meaningful connection, yet conversations often leave us feeling unheard, misunderstood, and further apart. We struggle to heal a rift with a beloved friend or family member. Despite careful preparation, we get nervous and overwhelmed during a difficult work discussion.

“Despite your best efforts,” explains trauma therapist Dr. Jeffrey Rutstein, “if you or the person you are trying to connect with engages from a place of nervous system dysregulation, your attempts at clear and compassionate communication will be greatly undermined.”
You’re invited to join Dr. Rutstein to discover a nervous system perspective on the factors that support healthy relationships—to help you transform your relational skills, communicate more effectively, and connect more authentically.
