Difficult Conversations, with Kern Beare
Talking to people we disagree with can be fraught with fear and anxiety — triggering our fight or flight survival drive. We fight by arguing to win, or we flee by avoiding the conflict altogether. But to resolve our differences, we need to move beyond this ancient instinct and access our capacity for connection, creativity and compassion. Join Kern Beare, founder of the Difficult Conversations Project, as he explore how we can have conversations that can actually heal divides and change hearts and minds.
