Political differences are straining friendships, families, and communities. Many people feel caught between wanting to speak their truth and wanting to preserve important relationships.
In this episode of Boomer Banter, Wendy Green talks with Dr. Philip Wilder, educator and facilitator of Nonviolent Communication, about how we can disagree respectfully without losing connection.
Together they explore:
- Why many relationships break down over political disagreements
- How anger often reflects deeper unmet needs
- When it may be wise to pause rather than argue
- How empathy and curiosity can keep conversations constructive
- Practical ways to stay grounded during difficult discussions
The conversation offers a powerful reminder: meaningful change and healing begin one relationship at a time.
