167. Delivering Bad or Sad News


Listen Later

Over the last 5 years, we've had a LOT of joy in our lives and we've also had a lot of bad news we've had to share with our children, family, and friends. Like, an overwhelming amount.

This most recent round, when our kid's beloved childhood dog, Sunny, passed away was tough because our daughters were out of town. It was hard enough not to be together in this moment, then compounded with they were with other people that would make it hard for them to process this loss.

It got me thinking about how we share bad news. In this episode, I talk about some of the factors I consider when something sad or bad needs to be communicated.

  • Time of day
  • Timing on sharing
  • Method of sharing (social media, texting, phone call)
  • There's a solid chance I've overthought this, HOWEVER, I believe there is something here, so wanted to be sure to share it with you!
