👋Hello again!
It's been a while. I'm back with another episode. This week I'm tackling a topic that I think a lot of us struggle with - having difficult conversations. You know those times when you really need to have a talk with someone but have been putting it off because it's not going to be easy?
I've got this thought from the movie that highlighted all the unsaid conversations two people had - The Marriage Story. How many things went unaddressed that likely could have changed the course of their relationship? It got me thinking about all the opportunities we miss out on in life when we avoid difficult discussions. Then I explored what even makes a conversation difficult and different scenarios where they're more or less probable.
I shared some of my own experiences needing to discuss hard things with friends, family members and coworkers over the years. And I shared a tip or two for preparing for and having those important yet uncomfortable talks.
