Talk Kindly

A greener path for a hard conversation.

Talk Kindly was created because my husband and I wanted to communicate more successfully. Sometimes a few simple guidelines and a talking stick make conversations turn down a greener path.

To use the app, tap Start a talk. Choose how long you want to talk and how long each person gets per turn. You can choose simple or guided. Read and agree to the guidelines (they really are helpful). Then begin.

How a talk works

Sit with one phone between you. One phone is enough. A second phone in the same room can join and see the same timer. When the time you chose is up, each of you names three things you appreciate, then picks when to talk again. A turn can run long. Nothing cuts the speaker off. Nothing you say is typed in or saved.
