What do you do when you are asked to be a bridesmaid and you said yes but as the wedding approaches you start to realize that you can’t do it?

Today I explore the strategies for having uncomfortable conversations and highlight the importance of coming to the table with a genuine approach and treating the issue as something that you and your friend can tackle together.

I also caution that the other person may have a devastating reaction to the news, and it's important to offer empathy and space for them to process their emotions.

What you’ll learn from this episode:

Navigating uncomfortable conversations

Shifting the dynamic from opposition to problem-solving

Explaining without blaming

Being prepared for a negative reaction
