We explore how to deal with difficult people in our lives through support program tools and resources. Taking our own inventory first and seeking to understand rather than be understood can transform our most challenging relationships and lead to personal growth.

• Take your own inventory first - have you wronged this person?
• Seek to forgive rather than be forgiven, understand rather than be understood
• Pay attention to internal promptings
• Steps 4-7 builds empathy and understanding 
• As we change ourselves through recovery, difficult people often become easier to interact with
• We cannot change others, but we can change our approach and responses
• The goal is to learn to love difficult people, not necessarily like them
