A Hard Conversation About Hard Conversations


Listen Later

Today on ShrinkChicks, Emmalee and Jen help us approach a topic many of us avoid: having hard conversations. Whether with a family member, partner, friend, or coworker, confrontation is challenging! Em and Jen discuss where to start when having these conversations (and their #1 tips in doing so), how each of them approaches hard conversations in their lives, and the importance of speaking up when something is bothering you. They then answer your questions like: how to find the right time, how to not avoid them, how to break up with your therapist, how to talk about the hesitancy of having children with your spouse, and how to be okay without an immediate resolution. Dear Em & Jen addresses a listener question about moving in with a partner and some hard conversations to have beforehand. Tune in to gain insight, awareness, and action!
