Today, we’re diving into a topic that we all tend to shy away from—HARD conversations. You know the ones I’m talking about! Those discussions that can make our palms sweat and our hearts race.
As a recovering people-pleaser who has felt like I’ve had to be a “good girl” and who has spent a good part of life avoiding having the tough talks--the thought of these hard conversations can make me twitch. Avoiding “the talk” or trying to protect ourselves if we do have them is the common approach.
But what if I told you that these tough talks are actually gateways to personal growth and deeper relationships that FREE us to find peace and live an uncommon life?
In this episode, I’ll share a relatable story about Marta and Mary Ann that perfectly illustrates the challenges we face when we avoid these conversations. Together, we’ll explore various "protection shields" that can sometimes hold us back, like the crying shield, deflection shield, victim-hood shield, and blame shield. But don’t worry—I’m not just here to point out the problems! I’ll introduce you to a powerful new perspective shield that can help you embrace these conversations with empathy and understanding.
I’ll also walk you through practical steps for preparing and engaging in courageous conversations. Trust me, you won’t want to miss these tips!
