CONFLICT HAPPENS, IT'S WHAT YOU DO NEXT THAT MATTERS
Welcome to Let's Talk Mediation, a podcast by Atkinson Resolution. Joy Atkinson, an experienced…
Attorney and Mediator, takes you inside the mediation room to show you how everyday conflicts get resolved before they turn into lawsuits, ruined partnerships, and silent family feuds.
Every episode breaks down a relatable scenario, a practical framework and word-for-word scripts you can use the same day, whether the conflict is with your partner, your boss, your business partner, or your in-laws.
And because no two people argue, apologize, or make peace the same way, we also explore what most conflict advice ignores: culture. Why does silence mean respect in one family and disrespect in another? Why does the same sentence land as an olive branch in one place and an insult in another?
Learn how background, language, and upbringing shape conflict, and how to talk across those differences instead of past them.
Everyday conflicts. Practical tools. Real cultural insight. Words you can actually use.
New episodes every Monday. Let's do this!
