There are certain conversations that many people dread: the ones in which we have to deliver bad news, discuss a sensitive subject, or talk about a relational dynamic gone wrong.
The mere thought of having these difficult conversations fills some people with anxiety while for others its seen as an effective time for clarity and growth. We get it, Sometimes difficult conversations are tough to have because nobody wants to play the bad guy, and or have the situation to blow up in their face. As much as it’s tempting, you don’t want to just avoid the whole mess, either.
Every relationship in life stands to call for a difficult conversation at some point or another.
In this episode, Joey and Sonja talk about the importance of having healthy and helpful and sometimes hard conversations.
