Blueprint for conversations that matter

THE 3 RULES SOLUTION

David Mashburn Ph.D

3 RULES

In my 37 years as a Clinical Psychologist, I’ve identified 3 Rules that have the power to reshape both ourselves and the dynamics of crucial conversations in which we engage. These rules enlist the better parts of who we are and what we are trying to achieve together. They eliminate the confusion of a thousand bits of relationship skills, strategies, or advice and provide a go-to anchor for every conversation.
