Summary

Monika and I sit down for a deeply honest conversation about conflict, intimacy, nervous system regulation, heartbreak, truth-telling, and the strange ways relationships force us to confront ourselves. We explore why so many people avoid difficult conversations, how conflict can become a pathway to deeper connection, and why the life we want may exist on the other side of the conversations we are most afraid to have.
