Navigating Conflicts with Chaotic Character Types: Bill Eddy’s Roadmap to Reclaiming Your Peace (Part II)

Bullying is rarely about you. It is often high-conflict individuals who project their internal traumas onto others. Whether the threats are physical or verbal, the goal is to create an environment of fear and intimidation. If you’ve been targeted, remember that you don't have to face it alone. There are effective ways to de-escalate these situations and professional resources available to help you. To explore how to respond to a high-conflict person, Harvesting Happiness Podcast Host Lisa Cypers Kamen continues her conversation with Billy Eddy, a licensed clinical social worker, attorney, author, and co-founder and Training Director of the High-Conflict Institute. As part of his series of de-escalation techniques for relationships, Bill Eddy shares successful strategies for setting limits with toxic people and navigating high-conflict personalities, as well as self-care methods from his book, SLIC Solutions for Conflict: Setting Limits and Imposing Consequences in 2½ Steps.
