Some conversations change the course of your life—and you don’t always see them coming. But when you do know in advance that a conversation could be high stakes, what do you do with that knowledge?
In this episode, Chris and Patrick introduce the CPR framework: a simple, powerful method for preparing to have high-stakes conversations with greater clarity, purpose, and respect. Whether you're navigating tough feedback, negotiating a relationship change, or facing a conflict that matters, this episode offers a roadmap for walking in ready—and walking out proud of how you showed up.
💡 What You’ll Learn:
1. Why preparation is the secret to high-quality dialogue
2. The 3-part CPR Framework:
- Context: What stance do I want to adopt for this interaction?
- Purpose: Why am I doing this?
- Results: What do I want to accomplish?
3. How just 20 minutes of prep can make the difference between a blow-up and a breakthrough Why CPR is more than a strategy—it’s a commitment to showing up effectively when it matters most.
