KEY TAKEAWAYS
- It's essential to have the courage to confront the reality of a situation and not brush things under the carpet.
- Trust your gut feelings and instincts when it comes to knowing when a difficult conversation needs to happen.
- When having a challenging conversation, aim to engage productively and seek a resolution rather than getting into arguments.
- Be mindful of the emotional impact your words and actions may have on others during difficult conversations.
- Always aim to seek a resolution in difficult conversations, whether it leads to improvement, reconciliation, or closure.
BEST MOMENTS
"I am not a confrontational person. I personally struggle with some of this."
"Life is curly. It is not a straight line. So first of all, interrogate your reality."
"You're always looking to seek a resolution. And by having a resolution, try to avoid words like never, and always, because they're too black and white."
"Remember, no limits to your life, your business, your career, your personal relationships, whatever you're trying to achieve, you can absolutely achieve it all."
This is the perfect time to get focused on what YOU want to really achieve in your business, career, and life. It’s never too late to be BRAVE and BOLD and unlock your inner BRILLIANT.
