Do “together” better.
Transform relational stalemates and navigate conversational minefields with ease.
“I don’t even know who she is anymore”
“Every conversation ends in a shouting match”
“There’s just too much water under the bridge”
“They’ll never change – it’s easier to avoid them altogether”
“Our family gathers once a year… but is it even worth it?”
Sound familiar? If so, you’re not alone. Many of us find family time challenging – impossible, even. And, with more issues than ever dividing us, it’s easy to wonder whether these relationships are worth all the frustration and stress.
Let me ask you this: what do you want your family time to look like? How do you want it to feel? The answer typically describes the best version of family: a safe space to be yourself, share ideas and feelings, and get meaningful life support.
Okay. So, how do you get here from there? Well, one step at a time – beginning with the ability to talk to each other without avoiding, ignoring, or boiling over. Impossible? You’d be surprised how fast a few simple word changes and quick tricks can transform a conversation.
