Welcome to "From Drama Triangle to Circle of Empowerment" Episode #100 of Co-creating Peace.
I'm delighted to have Susan Partnow join me again. While discussing Compassionate Listening in Episodes #95 & #96, Susan briefly referenced the drama triangle. Then, in Episode #97, Fleet Maull mentioned the drama triangle as well. I realized that this is a phenomenon that is so often present in conflict dynamics and so often the cause of conflict, that I need to have an episode of this podcast that focuses on the Drama Triangle so we can learn more about it and how to work constructively with our tendency to engage at that level. Susan Partnow is well-versed on the drama triangle and how to transform it into a circle of empowerment, so I invited her to return to share more of her wisdom with us.
Highlights of our conversation include:
Susan’s 5-session “Intro to Compassionate Listening” class, which includes working with the Drama Triangle, begins Jan. 12th. Register at compassionatelistening.org.
