Say What You Mean (and Mean It Kindly)

We all think we’re good at communication… until someone says,
“That’s not what I said,” and suddenly we’re replaying the conversation like a courtroom drama.

In this episode, we’re talking about communication — the art of saying what we mean without burning the house down. From “motivational” phrases that land worse than we intend, we’ll explore how to listen better, speak gentler, and laugh at the times we’ve all gotten it wrong.

Because connection doesn’t come from perfect phrasing — it comes from curiosity, compassion, and the courage to stay in the conversation, even when it’s awkward.

Pull up a chair, Take a deep breath, and join me by the fire as we learn how to mean it kindly. 💛

If this spoke to you, share it with someone walking their own kind of fire.
