In this episode, we explore the power of “clean language” in improving communication and avoiding conflicts within families. Emily and Melissa provide practical tips and insights on how to intentionally use jargon-free, simple, and clear language to enhance communication between family members. By learning how to communicate effectively, and differentiate between observations and facts, you can build trust and create a more positive environment for complex decision-making. Join us on this journey to better communication and stronger family relationships.
