Why We Talk Past Each Other: Breaking Hidden Barriers in Communication with Chaplain Felice

In this deeply moving episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik Chakraborty welcomes Chaplain Felice—Christian marriage coach and powerful communicator—to uncover why so many of us feel unheard, even when we're speaking. Drawing from his own story of devastating early loss, Felice explains how trauma fueled his lifelong obsession with communication. He breaks down the 20 hidden barriers that silently sabotage our relationships, especially pride, selfishness, and silence. From marriage to leadership, Felice shows us that poor communication is often a reflection of poor character—and that healing starts with humility, curiosity, and accountability.

About the Guest:
Chaplain Felice is a Christian marriage coach with a Master’s in Marriage and Family Therapy. After losing his entire immediate family by age 13, Felice turned his pain into purpose, dedicating his life to understanding how we connect—and why we often fail. Through his course on “20 Communication Barriers,” he helps couples, teams, and individuals build deeper, more honest relationships.

• Communication is a character mirror: Pride and selfishness aren't just traits—they're communication killers.

• Silence is not peace: Avoidance can slowly erode even the strongest bonds.

• Trauma can fuel purpose: Felice’s childhood loss led him to master the art of human connection.

• Listening is love in action: Curiosity and presence can re-open shut doors in relationships.
