10 Steps to Presenting Your Principles Persuasively

February 25, 2020

“If the conversation is worth having, it's worth doing right.” ~Audrey Rindlisbacher 

We LOVE principles! We know they matter and we desperately want to share them with those we love.
But... sharing principles can be tricky! When wanting to share the truths we've learned, we might be asking ourselves: How do I know I'm right? How much should I say? What if they won't listen? What if it hurts our relationship?
Yet, we should actually be asking ourselves: Is it my place to be talking to them? Are my motives pure or am I trying to "fix" them? Do we have the kind of relationship that makes it possible for them to hear and accept what I'm sharing?  Do I understand the principle and live it well enough? 
In this podcast, Audrey as she shares 10 Steps that will help you determine the what, when, where and how of sharing the principles you love with the people you love!
