“Most things that we want in life are on the other side of a difficult conversation.”
You want a more successful career, a more fulfilling relationship, a more meaningful life? What if all that’s standing in your way — are the conversations that you’re avoiding? In this Rethinks episode of Think Fast, Talk Smart, Jenn Wynn, a professor at NYU Stern School of Business and previously the director of education at the Obama Foundation, joins Matt Abrahams to discuss how to build the “hard but worth-it skills” necessary for difficult communication. Whether it's asking for a raise, setting boundaries, or addressing conflict, Wynn’s insights show that the conversations you’re avoiding aren’t just holding you back — they’re keeping you from the life you really want.
