In today's conversation with Julie Rose, we delved into her journey as a radio journalist and podcast host, discussing how she tackles challenging topics and leans into uncomfortable conversations. Julie shared valuable strategies on how to approach discussions around contentious issues with curiosity and empathy, rather than resorting to debates or trying to persuade.

We explored the importance of setting intentions, maintaining emotional awareness, and focusing on understanding the person rather than winning an argument. Julie also provided practical tips for initiating and navigating these conversations in a way that builds deeper relationships and mutual understanding. This episode is packed with actionable advice for anyone looking to improve their communication skills, especially in difficult or sensitive conversations.
