Episode Notes
- "Jackaling is using the language of blame as opposed to Nonviolent Communication which is known as Giraffe language, the giraffe is the symbol of NVC." (00:23.7)
- " Sometimes it's painful to be in jack mode, but I also want people to note that the jackal can be very productive... Can be actually very helpful. We should embrace our jackals." (03:32:7)
- "Can you just stay with that? The pain of it [your jackal]. The frustration with it. Can you meet that need? So to speak, not meeting it, by having it be handled in that moment, having it have expressed outwardly towards it, when I'm saying, meet your own need, you're meeting it fully embracing, oh, that's what all this energy is inside." (05:43:0)
- "I do think there is something to jackaling with awareness." It can be productive. (08:15:2)
- "Learn to love our jackals, love the jackal. Don't jackal to someone directly, jackal away, jackal fully have an awareness that you are jacking when you're jackaling." (10:31:0)
