Listen: How to Embrace the Difficult Conversations Life Throws at You

After a discussion with her husband over politics turned intense, coupled with the unexpected passing of her mother, Jen found herself trying to navigate some of life’s most difficult conversations. She isn’t alone. In fact, recent research shows one in four people have been putting off an uncomfortable conversation for at least six months, and one in 10 people have been staying silent on an awkward issue for more than two years. In Listen: How to Embrace the Difficult Conversations Life Throws at You, Jen Dalton shares intimate interviews and opens a window into different difficult conversations. She shows how the more people practice, the easier conversations can become, or at least the better people will be at controlling their own reactions in them.
