Having hard conversations with Ella & Mariana

We know, having hard conversations can be scary and emotionally draining.

As much as we might try to avoid them - and we do! - there will inevitably be times in life when we will find ourselves drawn into difficult conversations or when we will have to take the bull by the horns… and do our best not to freak out.

It’s therefore with a lot of love and a healthy dose of vulnerability that Ella from Bravely Coaching and I tackle this complex topic in conversation together.

By sharing the pain, joy and lessons that we’ve learned from having hard conversations in our own lives, we hope to shed a new perspective on how we can show up differently in times of conflict, so that you too can feel more empowered and equipped to have brave conversations in your own lives!
