"Should I Bring This Up Now?" Picking the Right Time For Important Conversations: Episode 159

Is this something you have ever said to yourself "should I bring this conversation up to my partner right now?" We know the answer is almost certainly YES, we all have thought this. Most of the time it's when we have an important topic that we want to talk about, or we think it will potentially cause a conflict.

HOWEVER conflicts are not always from the subject of a conversation, but how and when it is brought up. It can turn out to be a conversation that you were excited to have, and all of a sudden it turns into a disagreement. How can this be?

Today we talk about just that! In this episode you will hear 3 parts to a conversation that you must add, so that conversations can be had at the right time… for both of you!
