What do you do when someone stands you up? Do you address it? Or... Don’t rock the boat. Don’t make waves. Don’t bring up something that might be awkward for both people and could go horribly wrong. Do these seem like familiar strategies? Unfortunately, staying silent can harm the relationship. In this episode, Adam Lewis Walker and I talk about a real life tough conversation I decided to have with him, and what it was like for him to be on the other side of it.
