LINDA RYSENBRY, Director of NowRelate, is internationally accredited with the Centre of Nonviolent Communication founded by Dr. Marshall Rosenberg over 45 years ago. She has co-trained in New Zealand and studied intensively with Dr. Rosenberg in Switzerland and the US.
Linda combines over two decades of marriage, wide ranging corporate, medium and small business leadership and almost as many years of parenting and blended family experience, with seven years of practice of and service with Compassionate Communication and the healing arts.
She is recognised by her clients and peers for her capacity to open the way for radical honesty and empathy, from which new directions, connections and healing arise.
Linda is an educator, mediator and professional coach. It is her repeated experience that when we are able to listen deeply and express ourselves with naked honesty, responsibility and empathy (such as enabled by the model of Nonviolent Communication) we will reach a new place of peace and connection. Her vision is that people communicate daily with naked honesty, responsibility and empathy to create relationships, from which come effective decisions and actions that serve not only our children, clients and selves, but also the planet.
Linda lives with her partner and teenage family on the northern beaches in Sydney, Australia and works with private individuals, couples, families, business leaders and their organisations to create gentle paradigm shifts in their relationships.
