Sinopsis

Hosted by Jodi Hildebrandt In this episode, Jodi explains how to confront and resolve conflicts with loved ones. Confrontation, when done appropriately, is extremely loving to others and to self. In every relationship, there will be conflict. Conflict is not a bad or scary or wrong thing; it is a human thing. In every conflict, there is some issue that needs to be confronted and addressed. We need to learn to address conflicts—or else the conflict will never go away; it will only be avoided or ignored or pushed down. When issues are addressed, they are truly dealt with and healed. If I avoid or ignore conflicts, I will inadvertently create conflict for the rest of my life, and I will automatically engage addictive behavior and/or substances, and as a result, I will create even more conflict! Although the situation of every conflict is different, it is not unique; all conflicts have similar components. Conflict is usually the result of fear, lack of education, and confusion.&
