Fierce Conversations

In my relational leadership class at the UW, we are reading a book called "Fierce Conversations." Over the past seven years, I have been learning, practicing, and sometimes failing at having fierce conversations with people in my life, especially family. I found my voice in Africa and have wanted to build new behaviors around the way that I communicate with others. This past year has been full of conversations that have left me challenged, hurt, humbled, and wishing I had kept my big mouth shut! I guess the point is that I want meaningful relationships in my life and I'm not willing to keep my mouth shut anymore. Oy veh.
