Switch your metaphors
Interpret. Use your words to reflect back what you heard the other say. More importantly use your frames, your angle of view. For example, if the other uses sports and war as their primary metaphor and this does not enliven you, look for a picture that sources from your core. Perhaps it is cooking and the warmth, flavors, and gathering that brings. Speak your heart. Switch metaphors. You may both learn. You may come closer together. Share metaphors.
