Mike Sedam interviews Nate Regier, the author of Beyond Drama: Transcending Energy Vampires, and Conflict without Casualties about how his company, www.next-element.com helps people deal with conflict in positive ways. His book is available on Amazon: https://amzn.to/2LlYrK4


Nate talks to us about conflict and how people can spend energy on drama or compassion. He explains the difference as: 


Drama is to struggle against.


Compassion is to struggle with.


People can do more together than they can apart.


Nate describes the 3 parts of the "Compassion Cycle"


1. Openness – safety and transparency


2. Resourcefulness - being curious and forward thinking while caring about what people have to say


3. Persistence – understanding boundaries and non-negotiables
