Episode 12: Navigating Hard Topics
Life Renovation Podcast
<p>Have you ever fallen into a conversation about life, choice or abortion and found that it left a bad taste in your mouth? Maybe you exited that conversation frustrated or just shut it down altogether because you didn't know what to say? In this episode, Glendie & Elizabeth tackle navigating hard conversations using abortion as their topic. Through the tools taught in the Unexamined Life Workshop, our hosts will help you discover that it IS possible to not only survive these conversations, but navigate them with civility and accuracy.</p>
