Have you ever said, 'Oh, you must have...been so scared...felt awful...' or 'That must be so frustrating....hard...' or all the versions of what you say to someone (often well-meaning) after hearing something bad. Or did you hear something and had no idea what to say?

Listen to this episode if you're ready to know what's helps to say and not helpful to say...for both of you. Listen to this episode if you're ready to really hold space and not make it about you (because it is for and it totally isn't for them).

Clear as mud?

Listen loosely, laugh at what I learned not to do when you have false teeth and take what you learn into your day from there (I mean the language strategy, not the false teeth learning).
