Show Notes

In this powerful continuation, Dr. Jodi Richardson and conflict resolution expert Dr. Ashleigh Moreland tackle the conversations we all dread but desperately need to have.

Dr. Moreland breaks down her game-changing "Observe, Think, Feel, Need, Request" framework for navigating workplace tensions—from addressing poor performance to calling out passive-aggressive behaviour. Learn why most of us get these conversations wrong and how to create the psychological safety needed for real change.

Key Topics Covered:

  • How to stop people-pleasing and over-apologising (and why women especially struggle with this)
  • The surprising truth about when NOT to have a difficult conversation
  • Navigating unsolicited family advice about parenting, career moves, and life choices
  • Face-to-face vs. text: choosing the right medium for tough talks
  • Managing your emotional reactions in the moment
  • Recognising when it's time to walk away from toxic relationships

Dr. Moreland shares real-world scenarios and actionable strategies you can use immediately, whether you're dealing with a difficult colleague, setting boundaries with family, or finally having that conversation you've been avoiding.
