communication has the power to break or make a relationship 

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.amR9rVLg
The value of going into every conversation with open mindedness and respect 

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.amR9rVLg
Not imposing my own beliefs or judgement onto others

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.amR9rVLg
Being there for them. Ensure they feel heard, valued and respecting the choices they make. 

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.RlXeolKo
the ability to have opposing opinions of certain values 

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.amR9rVLg
i always remind myself that people are being brought up by different experiences and how it shapes them so i should not judge them based on one interaction or instance

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.RlXeolKo
Fear of speaking up against unacceptable behaviours because of our apprehension against conflict and confrontation.

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.amR9rVLg
One thing I commit to do as a peer supporter is to have the courage to speak up against unacceptable behaviours for the betterment of my peers and myself.

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.RlXeolKo
Not being able to put yourself in a different perspective & insisting on your own perspectives/ideas 

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.amR9rVLg
To listen with open-mindedness & empathy and put myself into their shoes & perspective. 

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.amR9rVLg
Be a good listener and be attentive to the needs of others, which exemplifies my value of accommodation. 

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.amR9rVLg
As a peer supporter, I hope to exemplify respect through certain gestures such as active listening, thanking them for their time, etc. which can make participants of events feel respected and comfortable. 

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.amR9rVLg
work on my active listening skills to hear someone out better, yet at the same time have an open conversation on what can be talked about or not

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.RlXeolKo
not knowing how to say no and knowingly people-pleasing despite feeling uncomfortable 

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.amR9rVLg
i treasure the value of respect and as a peer supporter i extend it this to others by listening to their experiences in a non-judgemental experience.

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.RlXeolKo
A good relationship has to build trust and avoid being dishonest in order for it to grow and thrive positively!

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.amR9rVLg
I personally treasure being patient with someone, and someone being patient with me. As a peer supporter, I wish to extend this value to peers who needs someone to listen and be there with them no matter how long it takes to overcome their challenge or difficulty. 

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.RlXeolKo
The unwillingness to listen to other people’s view point and assuming that this is who they are

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.amR9rVLg
Always set boundaries regarding my responsibilities and commitment towards other people + learning to give and receive (learning to say no) 

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.RlXeolKo
A lack of communication and unresolved feelings blocks good relationships. 

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.amR9rVLg
I think just being there for someone when they need someone to listen holds a lot of power. 

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.RlXeolKo
despite knowing each other’s boundaries and proceeding to test or overstep them

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.amR9rVLg
lend a listening ear and learn more about the different types of boundaries that others have. as I gain more knowledge about the different types of boundaries, I will be more careful when peer supporting so as to not overstep common boundaries

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.RlXeolKo
I think the lack of communication when our boundaries are crossed blocks good relationships as these negative feelings and emotions would pile up leading to someone lashing out and people getting hurt.

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.amR9rVLg
I want to be more understanding to see other's perspectives, acknowledging that their emotions are valid and that communication is key.

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.RlXeolKo
our own understanding of what is socially acceptable 

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.amR9rVLg
empathy and respect — in hearing about others experiences and how it has shaped them as a person, and withholding personal judgement. being a peer supporter means creating a safe space for purposeful expression of emotions, while actively hearing them share their emotions and offering support through listening & being present. 

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.amR9rVLg
i aim to continue to be open and respectful and to be a good listening ear 

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.RlXeolKo
Judgement/first impressions, it's how we appear to the other party.

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.amR9rVLg
Spread positivity and a healthy mindset so others don't always feel down.

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.RlXeolKo
Judgements/Assumptions or pre-conceived notions of the other party.

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.amR9rVLg
A value that i treasure is respect and i am committed to respecting my peer’s boundaries/comfort levels and giving them the space to share and be heard.

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.RlXeolKo
Being disrespectful (not giving time for ppl to share/consolidate their thoughts) 

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.amR9rVLg
Being non-judgmental and allow people to have time to get comfortable in sharing their thoughts :) 

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.RlXeolKo
doubt/lack of trust towards the other person can affecting building good relationships.

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.amR9rVLg

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.amR9rVLg
To be a listening ear and have empathy towards the people im supporting

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.RlXeolKo
Not knowing verbal boundaries and not paying attention to the words of others!

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.amR9rVLg
I commit my time to listen 👂whenever someone needs it!! And having patience for that person as well

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.amR9rVLg
I aim to continue to be non-judgemental and respectful to people's views and beliefs even if I might not agree. Respect boundaries just like how I want my boundaries to be respected.

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.RlXeolKo
listening to respond rather than understand blocks good relationships 

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.amR9rVLg
Be an active listener, ask with curiosity and genuinity and being understanding 

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.amR9rVLg
i commit to having an open mind and listening to what others have to share even though i may nor agree with it

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.RlXeolKo
our own internal beliefs that are not explicitly displayed but play a part in our interactions (e.g. disagreeing with someone's perspective but choosing not to communicate it = bottling up negative emotions towards that person that never gets addressed). but everyone in the group was very respectful and mindful of each other's differences so all good!

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.amR9rVLg
being open to hearing perspectives that are conflicting with or challenges my own beliefs but still being respectful and acknowledge that we can all agree to disagree. always engage in curiosity before judgement!

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.RlXeolKo
talking behind people's backs/siding with one group member

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.amR9rVLg
I commit to holding a safe space for anyone regardless of their different identities (age/race/religion). I will also uphold both empathy and integrity in my communication with others to ensure they feel heard and valued.

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.RlXeolKo
- lack of active listening/uninterested, i believe showing up and being there genuinely matters a lot and this is important to me in developing closer relationships because then, i (& the other party) can better feel heard and seen. also providing time for others to process and think is sooo important because everyone takes different time to process things, so having that space to reflect at my own pace is crucial for me, and i had that, so thank you!

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.amR9rVLg
i believe in the importance of creating a safe space for all and that includes different values. personally i hope to be non-judgemental and respect others’ sharing, given that they took the time, vulnerability and effort to be willingly open with me, i appreciate having this space to be there with them so yess!! non-judgement and knowing everyone has different experiences and perspectives is important to me.

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.amR9rVLg
to be present so that the other party will feel heard and seen 

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.amR9rVLg
always listen without judgement , respect and be there for them 

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.amR9rVLg
Practise non-judgmentality in the conversations I have with others

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.amR9rVLg
To stay curious, respectful and open to different perspectives. 

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.RlXeolKo
Judging someone because of the issues they have shared

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.amR9rVLg
Always to look at the person for who they are presently and not judge them based on the things they have shared

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.amR9rVLg
To be like a curious learning about someone and eventually having them to realize themselves what they hope to achieve as their desired goal. 

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.amR9rVLg
Listen attentively and remain open minded 

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.amR9rVLg
To always listen to problems with an open mind and heart 

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.RlXeolKo
i think something that is unspoken that blocks good relationships is the expectations people have one one another. this can surface differences as some might feel ‘unjust’

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.amR9rVLg
as i peer supporter, i commit to being non-judgmental and accepting. this is as since the pre has taken the time and effort to voice out, i feel it is only fair that i give them the respect and dignity they deserve

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.RlXeolKo
cutting someone off as they speak, passing judgemental comments, not being present in the moment 

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.amR9rVLg
respecting different perspectives, attentively listen, creating a supportive environment 

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.RlXeolKo
Lack of reciprocation and effort in the relationship can be a barrier if there is lack of open communication about it - as the other party might not know how I am feeling about it. Also not being genuine and actively listening (to show interest and care) is another barrier! This would affect how much one is willing to open up

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.amR9rVLg
Creating safe spaces is something I always hope for and find importance in. I feel being there genuinely and wanting to listen with interest matters a lot and it’s not always about the words we say that can have an impact on others but also our non-verbals.

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.RlXeolKo
Different members that place very varying value on the importance of communication - even if sometimes i reach out to want to talk about the situation, they may be of an avoidant type and may not respond to my initiative well

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.amR9rVLg
I want to be able to show genuine interest when others are sharing with me something they face and to be able to ask relevant and thoughtful follow up qns that can both allow me to show active listening while allowing them to better process their experience, thots and feelings 💜

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.RlXeolKo
poor communication, mismatch of attachment styles (eg anxious and avoidant), trauma carried over from bad experiences in previous relationships

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.RlXeolKo
Lack of trust, if one does not trust the other party and open up, it is hard for anyone to get into any sort of good relationship with them. A lack of trust in others can also habour negative feelings and doubt, possibly leading to the distruction of the relationship. 

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.amR9rVLg
Always listen and dont judge, I never know what the other person went through, and even if i had similar experiences, it is never the same. So creating a comfortable space for them to open talk about things is what as a peer supporter is what i aim to do.
