Get to Know Intercultural Agility
Intercultural Agility (a close relative of Cultural Intelligence or CQ) is a robust framework for navigating relationships, particularly your most important one: your marriage. Together, we'll explore several powerful IA tools.
Challenge your Cultural Lens
Have you had a conflict with your spouse where you were confused as to why it became such a big deal? Yeah, us too. We'll look at cultural perceptions, and how our brain, while amazing, can fail us at times.
Learn the Three Colors of Worldview
Honor/Shame. Innocence/Guilt. Power/Fear. These are the three primary worldviews in our world, and each of us has a unique mix that incorporates all three based on where we grew up, how we were raised, and a wealth of other factors.
Explore the 12 Dimensions of Culture
Not only do we have our own unique view of the world, but we also have many preferences! By beginning to understand and value all of these cultural spectrums, we can embrace being a cultural learner in this diverse world.
