On what happens when we stop defending ourselves and instead cross over to the other person. The method that runs through everything Eva teaches, explained from the ground up.
Tommy Ivarsson is the founder of Tillväxtakademin, co-founder of Jontefonden, and has been featured as both a Summer and Winter Host on Swedish Radio P1. In the film, he shares his experiences after taking our courses together with his wife, Gunilla.
Tommy and other guests are featured in our medium and large course packages, where their personal stories show how this knowledge can make a real difference in our lives, relationships, and communication.
We thrive when we feel seen. A kind word, a simple thank you, or a meaningful glance can make a bigger difference than we might think. Appreciation creates a sense of safety and makes us more open to connection, cooperation, and care. It begins between two people, but its impact can reach much further.
The world doesn’t just need more people who are right. It needs more people who make others feel valued. When we choose to see the good in one another, we create safety, hope, and connection. Change can begin with something as simple as appreciation.

Vi kan välja våra ord med omsorg och ändå bli missförstådda. För kommunikation handlar om så mycket mer än vad vi säger. Hur vi möter varandra kan vara avgörande för om vi skapar kontakt eller avstånd – hemma, på jobbet och i våra viktigaste relationer. Och det fina är att vi kan träna på att nå varandra bättre. Hurra!

När världen känns alltmer osäker är det naturligt att känna oro och rädsla. Men hur kan vi möta det som händer utan att låta oron ta över? Vi kan inte styra allt som sker omkring oss, men vi kan träna på att stå stadigare på insidan – och möta livet med större lugn, hopp och tilltro till vår egen förmåga.

När konflikterna blir många och känslorna svårare att hitta kan separation kännas som den enda vägen framåt. Ibland är den det. Men ibland behöver vi först förstå mer av det som har hänt – inom oss och mellan oss.

När vi inte hittar svaret är det lätt att tänka ännu mer, fråga fler och leta efter lösningar. Men ibland behöver vi göra tvärtom – skapa lite lugn, se den större bilden och våga vänta in våra egna svar.

We find it so easy to give other people both the credit and the blame for how we feel. But if the whole explanation lands outside us, we risk missing our own power to influence things.

Feeling nervous or anxious about performing doesn't necessarily mean something is wrong. Sometimes it simply means we are in the middle of something that matters to us.

We often live as if there will always be a better moment. And while we wait, life goes on.

People rarely grow from being corrected. But they grow from being seen. Appreciation costs nothing, yet it can change everything.
