Talking with siblings about parent’s finances or asking a grandparent if it may be time for them to stop driving can be a challenge. Knowing when to bring up uncomfortable topics — and how to express thoughts and feelings — will be addressed in an interactive workshop facilitated by Elizabeth Kent from 8:30 a.m.-12:30 p.m. tomorrow at Mana Christian Ohana.

Attendees will learn useful communication tools to enable them to share concerns so people will hear them, including how to have a productive conversation; explore the other person’s readiness and willingness to listen; plan logistics and approach; and have the conversation using powerful and effective “I” statements.

A suggested contribution is $20 to attend. To register, contact Gina Tumasone at 885-5525 or gtumasone@whmediation.org.
