High-Conflict Negotiation Coach Shares Communication Strategies During TalkingParents Expert Week

Mia Madafferi

Mia Madafferi, lawyer, high-conflict negotiation coach, and founder of Grey Rock Consulting, is joining TalkingParents, a trusted leader in co-parenting communication, for its next Instagram Expert Week from March 23—27.

Throughout the week, viewers will get exclusive content from Mia as she shares insights and practical strategies to help co-parents better understand and communicate with narcissistic or high-conflict personalities.

Her daily topics will include:

  • Best practices for co-parenting with a narcissist
  • How to decode high-conflict personalities
  • The goals for communicating with a high-conflict co-parent
  • What the Yellow Rock & Grey Rock methods are, and how to apply them to co-parenting communication
  • How to spot a narcissist and communicate with them after

Mia brings nearly 20 years of litigation experience and is the first person in Australia to be certified by negotiation expert Rebecca Zung as a Master High Conflict Negotiation Coach. Through her work with Grey Rock Consulting, she helps individuals develop communication frameworks designed to reduce escalation, protect boundaries, and foster more strategic interactions during separation and co-parenting disputes.

We know first-hand how overwhelming, unrelenting, and time-consuming the communications from controlling, narcissistic, or high-conflict personalities can be. When communicating with a narcissist, it’s essential to understand that they thrive on attention and validation—and they starve without it! So, guess what the key is to taking control of the conversation? Stop feeding the beast!
