Don’t Avoid Difficult Conversations In R...

MATTHEW HUSSEY
About this episode

Sometimes we avoid speaking up about what we really want with a person because we're afraid we will "make waves" in the relationship. We come from a place of fear and anxiety. "What if me telling him I want something to be different makes him walk away altogether?" we think to ourselves. So we ignore the conversation and silently suffer. But then nothing gets better. We just put off the conversation for another day while time keeps moving on. If this is you, this episode is for you.
