from Badass Confidence Coach | Your Personal Trainer for Your Mind · host Anna Marcolin

Send us Fan MailYou've already had this argument. In the shower, in the car, at 2 am when you can't sleep. You've explained your side perfectly, anticipated every comeback, and won every round. The only problem is the other person was never actually in the room.Join Anna and Tim as they talk about why most people don't avoid hard conversations because of the actual issue. It's because you can't control what happens once you say it out loud. They get into the slow retreat that happens instead: the distance, the sarcasm, the twelve smaller arguments instead of the one real one, and what it actually takes to finally have the conversation you've been avoiding.This Episode Covers:Why the argument you've perfected in your head never goes the way you planned it.The moment avoidance stops being peacekeeping and starts being resentment.What happens in a relationship when one person pushes, and the other shuts down.Why waiting six months to say something changes nothing except how it lands.The difference between wanting someone to understand you and needing them to.What it actually means to own your part without taking the blame for everything.The line between someone needing a minute and someone punishing you for talking.Why confidence has nothing to do with controlling how the other person reacts.Until next time, here's to deeper connections and personal growth.Mad love!Book a Discovery Call for Coaching/Therapy: https://calendly.com/badassconfidencecoach/coachingThe podcast is now on YouTube!
