Why Smart Founders Avoid Difficult Conversations

What this episode covers

Every agency owner has lived through it - knowing a difficult conversation needs to happen and finding every reason not to have it. Not because you don't know what to say. Because something underneath the conversation feels genuinely threatening. In this episode, Natasha shares the client who threatened her team, absorbed her revenue, and kept her in dread every morning for months - and why she never had the conversation that needed to happen. The reason had nothing to do with communication skills. It had everything to do with a pattern she'd been carrying since childhood, running silently in the background of every difficult client interaction she'd ever had.conflict avoidance, female founders, agency owner, fawn response, difficult conversations, nervous system, trauma-informed, leadership, women entrepreneurs, inner work
