Accommodate, Ghost, or Get Uncomfortable

Description

The primary way that we deepen our relationships is through communication. But as any human knows, communication isn’t always easy — even with the people we love the most! Even in the most respectful and healthy relationships, we will sometimes encounter situations that involve friction. Sometimes, this can take the form of requests or expectations that feel out of alignment with our beliefs or boundaries. Sometimes, it can take the form of conflicting values or opinions. And sometimes, it can involve a serious disagreement about something important. When these situations come up, you have a few choices.

Sometimes, “going along to get along” is the right choice. Often, these situations require difficult conversations in order to heal. Addressing the elephant in the room can feel uncomfortable… or even scary! We will often avoid it, but this only allows the issue to fester and the wound to deepen, which can weaken the relationship. At other times, it’s okay to just ignore the topic and move on. And occasionally, the relationship may just have run its course… and it’s time to let go.

In this episode of Soul Guide Radio, I explore the right way to approach communication with the people in your inner circle, in a way that honors your own needs and boundaries!
