Conflict Isn’t the Enemy: But Do You Know What Is?

Send us a text

Conflict doesn’t have to divide us; it can be the wrestle that leads to deeper understanding and stronger communities. In this episode of The Purple Zone, Alexis reflects on her experiences moderating at voucher town halls across Idaho, where dignity has proven essential for meaningful dialogue. (This isn't a convo about vouchers, it's the takeaway from interacting with communities all over Idaho).

Drawing from the Dignity Index, personal stories, and even her daughter’s raw reflections after the recent tragedy in Michigan, Alexis explores why conflict is not the problem...contempt is. She shares how offering dignity, even in disagreement, opens the door for learning and connection, whether in public policy debates like HB 93 or in everyday conversations, in person or on social media.

The Purple Zone isn’t about compromise. It’s about coming to the table with honesty, good intentions, and the courage to work through conflict together.
