Core Values Index & Conflict Resolution

Living Wholehearted Podcast With Jeff and Terra

Episode • Nov 18, 2019 • 32m

Conflict is inevitable, but how we navigate it can transform our relationships, leadership, and personal growth. In this episode, we explore how the Core Values Index (CVI) reveals the underlying triggers behind conflict and provides practical strategies for shifting back to the best of who we are. From understanding anxiety cues in our bodies to identifying our core conflict strategies—whether manipulation, intimidation, interrogation, or aloof judgment—we unpack how self-awareness can help us lead with integrity. Join us as we dive into the neuroscience of conflict, the power of shifting perspectives, and how honoring our core values creates healthier, more connected relationships.

Takeaways

Conflict is a natural part of relationships and should not be avoided.

Anxiety often manifests physically in our bodies before it escalates into conflict.

Recognizing when our 'lid is flipped' helps us manage emotional responses.

Each core value has a corresponding conflict strategy that can be healthy or unhealthy.

Merchants may manipulate in conflict when their values are violated.
