This month on Mercy Talk, we’ll be welcoming special guest Jenn Otero as we dive into our theme, “How to Deal”. In “How to Deal”, we’ll be looking at 5 difficult, yet common behaviors we often encounter in relationships and how to deal with them in healthier ways. In the first installment of this series, we’ll take a look at the “Friendly Sniper” and talk about creating safe boundaries with those who pick on others as a means of deflecting their own pain. Also, in this episode:  

• Why the overuse of sarcasm reveals more than it hides 
• How to have a vulnerable yet safe conversation with someone who continues to belittle you 
• How to be aware of the resentment and contempt in our own lives so as to avoid a critical spirit
