338. How to Have a Difficult Conversation: An Interview with Sara Fisk

Have you ever noticed how grief changes the conversations you want to have? Maybe it's with a family member who's disappointed you since your loss. Maybe it's with a friend whose surface-level check-ins no longer feel like enough. Or maybe it's with yourself - about what you really want now that everything has changed.

This week, I sit down with my dear friend and coach Sara Fisk to talk about something that affects all of us: difficult conversations. She discovered that for widows, difficult conversations aren't just hard. They’re uniquely tender, filled with grief and the desire for authentic connection.

Listen in as Sara and I explore how to have a difficult conversation. We talk about what makes conversations feel hard, especially in grief, and Sara shares tangible tools to approach your next difficult conversation with more confidence and compassion.
