Ep 4: Why we avoid hard conversations
from Breathe & Unpack · host Mya
Some conversations feel heavier than others. We play them over in our heads, imagining the reaction before we even say a word. For me, it’s not about being afraid to speak up it’s about how my words land. I’ve been told I can sound harsh even when I don’t mean to, so sometimes I hold back, thinking about how the other person might take it. In this episode of Breathe & Unpack, I’m opening up about why we avoid hard conversations, how I’ve learned to pause before speaking, and why it’s still a work in progress. From family to friends to relationships, avoiding the talk doesn’t always mean we’re weak sometimes it means we care. Let’s unpack it together.
