Lucinda talks to Nick Rion, a personal and professional relationship coach. Nicholas specialises in helping individuals build strong, healthy, and sustainable relationships, particularly focusing on conflict resolution. The conversation delves into the definition of conflict and the different ways people perceive and handle it. Nick shares his personal journey of avoiding conflict and the negative impact it had on his mental health, and introduces his framework of the 10 habits of successful relationships, emphasising the importance of trust, mutual respect, emotional intelligence, and assertiveness.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Conflict in relationships becomes painful when it involves emotions and is not resolved, leading to anxiety and distress.
• Building strong, healthy, and sustainable relationships requires trust and mutual respect.
• Conflict can be healthy if the relationship is ready for it, meaning there is a foundation of trust and mutual respect.
• Developing emotional intelligence, vulnerability, transparency, curiosity, and a learning mindset are important habits for successful relationships.

BEST MOMENTS

"The amount of trust and mutual respect that you're gonna have in a relationship, the more you have, the higher the conflict you can have."

"The role of a manager is to coach people into being better leaders or better at what they do."

"You are not responsible for the other person's feelings. You're responsible for yours."

"The only problem that we have is we're not educated this way. No one told us, 'What are your needs? What are your feelings?'"
