Description

Today, we are exploring the art of honest communication, breaking down barriers, and building genuine connections.

I’m joined by Grace Gavin, co-founder of Know Honesty. Grace is a guide for those brave enough to face the truth within themselves and bold enough to listen to others without reservation. With a heartfelt approach and the ability to ask the right questions, Grace guides people towards becoming masterful communicators, fostering openness and honesty in every interaction.

In this conversation, Grace redefines what it means to be open and honest, sharing how honesty is about being true to yourself, while openness is about fully listening without reservation. We discuss the balance between self-centeredness and self-serving, the dangers of brutal honesty, and how subconscious “brick walls” block genuine communication. Grace also reveals how breaking autopilot conversations can unlock deeper connections and introduces her 6 Practices for Honesty and Openness to transform communication.

Topics We Explore:

• The true meaning of honesty and openness in communication
• Why we are often worse at being open than being honest
• The impact of brutal honesty and the subconscious “brick walls” it creates
• The 6 Practices for Honesty and Openness
• Creating clarity by understanding what you truly want and prioritizing it
