{"product_id":"how-to-find-the-right-words","title":"How to Find the Right Words","description":"Life constantly requires us to give other people some hugely awkward messages: that we don't love them anymore; that we do love them (though we're not meant to); that they smell a bit; that they're fired; that we're furious with them (though we adore them) or that their music is too loud...\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOften, out of embarrassment, we just stay quiet. Occasionally we explode. And typically, we stumble about, looking for the right words - dreading that we didn't find them and thereby causing more hurt than we should.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis is a book to help us locate the best possible words to get across a range of life's most difficult messages. With twenty case studies drawn from relationships, friendships, work, our families and service situations, we are gently shown what we might - in an ideal world - find ourselves saying to make our intentions known while causing minimal harm. We are guided, among other topics, to how best to end a relationship, how to make it up with a child and how gently to let down a friend who wants more.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWe laugh, we recognise our troubles - and we're introduced to a range of deeply empathetic ways to navigate some of our most acute social dilemmas.","brand":"Affirm Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45313302069486,"sku":"9781912891511","price":16.48,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0630\/9612\/7726\/files\/9781912891511.jpg?v=1716307271","url":"https:\/\/bookland.com.au\/products\/how-to-find-the-right-words","provider":"Book Land AU","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
