Episode 5: The conversations we avoid and why they matter

Today, we look at something most of us struggle with but rarely talk about: difficult conversations. The ones we rehearse in our heads. The ones we avoid for years. The ones that quietly shape our relationships, families, and sense of self.

Eve shares her background and the experiences that led her to this work, before introducing her powerful and practical framework: The Magic 3.

This simple but deeply effective process helps you:

• Clarify what’s really going on beneath the surface
• Communicate with honesty instead of fear
• Correct course when conversations go off track

Rather than reacting, over-explaining, or shutting down, The Magic 3 gives you a structure you can return to again and again, whether you’re navigating relationships, parenting, separation, or long-standing emotional patterns.

This episode isn’t about winning arguments.
It’s about speaking with intention, protecting emotional safety, and learning how to say what needs to be said, without causing more harm.

If you’ve ever thought “I don’t know how to start this conversation” or “I don’t want to make things worse”, this episode is for you.

In this episode:

• Why difficult conversations feel so hard and why avoiding them doesn’t protect us
• Eve’s personal journey into communication and emotional safety
• The Magic 3 process: Clarify. Communicate. Correct.
• How to start practising better conversations in real life, not just in theory.

Takeaway:
You don’t need the perfect words.
You need the right approach.

This episode invites you to stop staying silent and start speaking in a way that actually changes things.
