Why Do I Keep Avoiding This Conversation?
from RiseUp - Live Joy Your Way Hosted by Kamini Wood
In this episode of RiseUp – Live Joy Your Way, Kamini Wood talks about the conversation you know you need to have, and why today never seems like the right day to have it. You've rehearsed it. You've rewritten the opening line in your notes app. And every time the moment comes, there's a very reasonable explanation for waiting. They're tired. You're tired. You don't want to ruin the weekend. Maybe it's not even that big a deal. Except you're still replaying it three days later. Kamini digs into the Disappearer, one of the four Pressure Patterns™, and why pulling back under pressure can look a lot like being easygoing. She explains the difference between keeping the peace and creating peace, and how a little discomfort now can save a lot of resentment later. You can view your Pressure Pattern here at my website.

Next time: you finally walk into the conversation, you know what you want to say, someone pushes back, and suddenly your mind goes completely blank. If you know that feeling, come back. Until next time, stay curious.
