Reflection prompt #15

Why do Recalibration Conversations feel so daunting, and what can we do about it?

---

I recently wrote about Recalibration Conversations, referring to them as the conversations that may need to occur before the problem-solving conversations when we’re experiencing conflict or tension in our vital work or personal relationships.

I’ve learned from many years of experience teaching and coaching Recalibration Conversations that there can be reluctance to broach these conversations. There may be a tendency to catastrophize, imagining all that can go wrong. They feel hard and even a bit dangerous.

I’ve also learned that the relationship payoff for these heart-to-hearts is quite profound for those who embark on them.
