SURVIVING THE WOUND OF RELATIONSHIPS
CRASH, BURN, RECOVER...
COLLISIONS
BY DR. JOE DEANGELIS
THE DRIVERS THAT CAUSE INTERPERSONAL FRICTION IN THE FIRST PLACE.
Collisions delves into the heart of interpersonal conflicts—those inevitable moments when our desires, expectations, and motivations crash into others’—and reveals the only-of-its-kind framework for understanding what happens beneath the surface of these encounters. Drawing inspiration from the metaphor of "The Wizard behind the Curtain," this book makes a critical distinction that sets it apart: while most conflict resolution books focus on behavior management, Collisions examines the often-hidden motivational drivers that cause interpersonal friction in the first place.
You know those moments that make your blood boil and your heart pound? Maybe it’s a coworker taking credit for your idea, maybe it’s your daughter rolling her eyes at you, maybe it’s your friend cancelling plans last-minute again. These aren’t just “communication breakdowns” or “misunderstandings.” They’re predictable crashes between people, like cars slamming into each other on the highway. Welcome to the reality of interpersonal collisions. Join Dr. Joseph DeAngelis as he not only gives actionable solutions to conflict resolution but gives you the tools to examine the motivational drivers behind every-day behavior so you can keep your minor emotional fender benders from devolving into full-on train wrecks.
