Just last week, I was in a conversation  about the key question for a would-be podcaster. Why do you want to do this?

 I had a clear answer to that question in 2018 during Seth Godin’s podcasting workshop (7 intensive weeks and 35 lessons) and my answer is the same in 2022, on Episode 200. But, I am not the same. I continue to learn from my experiences – and from my podcast guests. There is plenty more to explore in the podcast.

 I want to help people see a perspective on conflict that is practical and positive.  I wanted then and want today to push back against the idea that conflict is always negative.

 I want to help people see conflict differently – which is why I have had (and will continue to have) a wide range of guests who have insights to share. 

 I want to share ideas that I have learned through my own reading, speaking, study groups, and experiences with individuals and families.

 And I want to convince others of this deeply-held belief: we can all get better at handling conflict.

A big thank you to my guests and to the Old Hands who offer encouragement, wisdom, and technical skills. And, most of all, thank you to all of you who listen. I wouldn’t do it without you.
