Calling All My Conflict Avoiders!

Whether you consider yourself a people pleaser or peacemaker or just can’t stomach the idea of a hard conversation - you might be a conflict avoider. Maybe you find yourself making jokes when difficult topics come up, maybe you’ve been holding onto a relationship for too long, maybe you bottle up how you really feel only to have a passive aggressive episode later… These might be signs that you are afraid of addressing conflict.
