As women, we're taught to soften our speech and tone down our boldness. Unfortunately, that often undermines our message and contributes to marital strife. Come learn tips to empower your voice!
Women tend to speak in ways that communicate less confidence, while men tend to communicate confidence in what they are saying and their right to say it. This difference too often creates misunderstanding between loving partners, with each blaming the other unnecessarily for the problems that result.
For this topic, I provide:
specific gender differences in communication;
problems that can result for women, men, and couples due to these differences,
opportunities to practice minor changes that will empower the participant's voice and message.
Scripture used for this topic is: "We will speak the truth in love." (Ephesians 4:15).
