Listen "Episode #205. Shelley shares why uncomfortable conversations are so uncomfortable"
Episode Synopsis
Reflecting on numerous conversations with leaders this year, Shelley delves into the root of why uncomfortable conversations evoke feelings of nervousness, awkwardness and discomfort.
She questions whether these emotions stem from the reality of the situation or are more a product of our own thoughts, leading to avoidance, sabotage, or justification.
In this conversation, Shelley gives us some strategies to explore these feelings, to sit with them and gain clarity on whether a conversation is worth stepping into despite the discomfort or if it's one we can consciously choose to step back from.
