Communication Is Not a Competition

Communication skills, emotional intelligence, and conflict resolution—made practical.

Are your conversations stuck in conflict instead of connection? In Communication Is Not a Competition, Jermaine A. Pusey blends real stories with step-by-step scripts to help you be heard without fighting to be right. Use it to strengthen relationship communication at home and workplace communication on the job.

You’ll learn how to:

• Spot and defuse emotional triggers before they hijack the moment

• Listen actively so people feel safe, seen, and understood

• Respond without defensiveness—even when you feel attacked

• Set healthy boundaries that open connection instead of shutting it down

• Turn “talking in circles” into real progress you can feel

Who it’s for: couples, parents, friends, leaders, managers, coaches, therapists, teachers, and anyone ready to replace power struggles with trust and clarity. Whether you’re navigating marriage communication, dating friction, family conflict, or team tension, you’ll get proven tools: active-listening exercises, de-escalation language, boundary scripts, repair questions, and simple frameworks you can use today.

Warm, actionable, and jargon-free, this audiobook is your roadmap to better conversations and stronger relationships—at home, at work, and everywhere you speak.
