Most people treat conflict as something to avoid, tolerate, or "fix" as fast as possible. But handled well, conflict can deepen trust, sharpen ideas, and move you forward faster.

In this episode of Built to Grow, we break down what conflict really is, the most common types you’ll face, and how power dynamics shape every difficult conversation.

You’ll learn the difference between conflict resolution and conflict management, the main conflict styles (and how to use them on purpose), what it means to hit an impasse, and practical ways to move through it.

By the end, you’ll have simple tools you can use in your next tough conversation—at work or at home—to turn tension into a productive path forward.
