Episode notes
Ask God What And How To Speak
- Ask God both what to say and how to say it before speaking into a hard situation.
- Use Jesus's model to frame timing, words, and motive so your words become loving, not harmful.
Process Your Energy First
- Lower the energy inside you before initiating a hard conversation so your body doesn't betray you.
- Process feelings with God first to avoid coming across as an uncorked backlog of grievance.
Avoid Written Blasts For Hard Talks
- Do not deliver difficult feedback by text, email, or voice message; speak face-to-face or by video.
- If you must write first, wait 24 hours to let your energy and emotions settle before sending.
