Truth vs. Harmony in Relationships: Choosing Honesty Even When It Hurts

We explore the complex balance between truth and harmony in relationships. While keeping the peace may feel safer, choosing harmony at the expense of honesty can lead to internal conflict and distance. We discuss the power of truth-telling—even when it risks hurting or disappointing our partners—as a path to deeper intimacy and authentic connection. When is it worth speaking your truth, and how do you approach it with care? Join us as we uncover the importance of owning our feelings and needs, and offer practical ways to create space for honest, sometimes difficult conversations. With personal stories and reflective questions, this episode invites you to rethink the role of honesty in building resilient and fulfilling relationships.
