Show Notes

In this episode of Behavior Gap Radio, Carl reflects on the challenge of communicating hard truths with people we care about. Inspired by a principle from Buddhism, he explores the delicate balance between saying what is kind, true, and necessary. Through personal stories and honest introspection—especially around parenting—Carl unpacks how even well-intentioned kindness can sometimes be a misapplied avoidance of discomfort. This episode is a thoughtful invitation to approach tough conversations with clarity, courage, and compassion.
