200 Episodes – looking back and looking forward

Just last week, I was in a conversation  about the key question for a would-be podcaster. Why do you want to do this? I had a clear answer to that question in 2018 during Seth Godin’s podcasting workshop (7 intensive weeks and 35 lessons) and my answer is the same in 2022, on Episode 200. But, I am not the same. I continue to learn from my experiences – and from my podcast guests. There is plenty more to explore in the podcast. I want to help people see a perspective on conflict that is practical and positive.  I wanted then and want today to push back against the idea that conflict is always negative. I want to help people see conflict differently – which is why I have had (and will continue to have) a wide range of guests who have insights to share.  I want to share ideas that I have learned through my own reading, speaking, study groups, and experiences with individuals and families. And I want to convince others of this deeply-held belief: we can all get better at handling conflict.A big thank you to my guests and to the Old Hands who offer encouragement, wisdom, and technical skills. And, most of all, thank you to all of you who listen. I wouldn’t do it without you.Do you have comments or suggestions about a topic or guest?
