In today’s episode, we’re jumping into three real listener questions and each one hits a core part of what this podcast is all about: conversation, courage, and growth.
We talk about:
“Do people actually change their minds?”
I break down why yes, minds can change but not through debate, dunking, or proving someone wrong. Minds change through relationship, respect, and the slow work of understanding.
“Why am I so scared to share what I really think?”
We go deep into the fear of judgment and how cancel-culture thinking makes honest conversation feel dangerous. I share practical steps to speak with courage while still protecting your peace.
“How do I rebuild after a massive failure?”
This one gets personal. We talk about confidence after collapse, the difference between shame and reflection, and what starting over actually looks like financially and emotionally.
Why this episode matters
Because these questions are the everyday struggles that shape how we treat people, how we talk to each other, and how we grow. If you’ve ever wanted better conversations, less fear, or a clearer path forward after messing up this episode is for you.

- How to talk to people you disagree with
