Last week I was interviewed for a Podcast by Beth Martens – the author of the GREAT book ‘Journey‘ – which she calls ‘King Hero Interviews’.
It was great to be invited to the conversation and yes I also had to brush up on my King Hero persona beforehand.
I also did not get the topic of discussion ‘Navigating Complex Relationships‘ until about 18 hours before the call, of which were 8hrs of sleep.
So I was interested in where the conversation would go.
Beth was also quite vocal about her views over the last few years, so I knew she would be asking me some very specific questions about my thoughts around health measures, government over reach, suspect ‘science’, the state of the world, polarization and where I thought we were heading in the future.
In the end, complex relationships turned out to be a great topic to explore.
How do we manage complex relationships, when there may be (very) polarizing beliefs that challenge the fabric and durability of many relationships – intimate, familial, friends, and even work colleagues?
So we dived in (for almost 2hrs) and these are some of the key things that came to mind for me.
