About this episode
Sometimes the most powerful thing you can say is nothing at all. Knowing when to use silence can completely transform difficult family conversations. While silence can feel uncomfortable at first—even like surrender—it actually demonstrates remarkable strength. If you're working to keep important relationship connections despite challenging differences, the use of silence might be the relationship-saving skill you've been searching for all along.
