The Conversation You Keep Avoiding
Avoiding a difficult conversation can make the uncertainty larger. Prepare the truth you need to say, keep it specific, and leave room to hear the other side.

A difficult conversation can occupy more space in your mind than the conversation itself will take. You rehearse possible arguments, imagine the worst response, and wait for a perfect moment that never arrives. Meanwhile the distance, confusion, or resentment keeps growing.
You do not need a flawless script. You need enough clarity to speak honestly without turning the conversation into a battle you must win.
