Being in Relationship While Disagreeing

Episode 6 · Relationships · 16 min  ·  2025

Disagreement does not have to mean disconnection. Shannon and Conrad explore how to hold your own perspective while staying genuinely curious about another's -- and why that capacity is one of the most important things a leader can develop right now.
