In this episode of In Pursuit, Joseph breaks down one of the most overlooked forms of discipline: the courage to have hard conversations.

Whether it’s in business, relationships, or leadership - too many people avoid tough chats out of fear, ego, or the desire to be liked. But dodging those moments comes at a cost: wasted time, eroded trust, built-up resentment, and a slow decline in self-respect.

Joseph explores why people shy away from uncomfortable conversations, the damage it causes long-term, and how to approach them with clarity, confidence, and intent.

It’s raw, practical, and packed with real strategies you can apply today. Because when it comes to the hard stuff - clear is kind, and unclear is unkind.
