In this episode of Our Friendly World with Fawn and Matt, Fawn opens up about the emotional toll of being ignored and misunderstood, exploring how silence can sometimes feel like a weapon rather than a peaceful act. Together, she and Matt unpack how overwhelm, emotional triggers, and the need for connection shape our reactions to conflict. They examine stoicism, the illusion of control, and the surprising ways people seek connection—even through confrontation. Matt shares a Zen parable about anger and personal responsibility, while Fawn reflects on the volcanic nature of repressed emotion. This raw, honest conversation challenges listeners to question where their reactions come from and how to find peace in the chaos of modern relationships.
