The Courage to Communicate
Manage episode 486660617 series 3650601
In this final episode with my brother Elliott Bingham as cohost (cue the sibling send-off music), we’re wrapping things up with a real and honest conversation about the beauty—and the mess—of community. We talk about how our personal strengths and weaknesses show up in relationships, why conflict is unavoidable (and actually really important), and how grace, humor, and a willingness to see things from someone else’s perspective can change everything.
Elliott shares how fear of failure has shaped the way he connects with others, while I reflect on what it looks like to stop trying to be perfect and start leaning into growth. We also talk about how humor (a family specialty) can break tension, but how we also need to get comfortable with the hard stuff—like speaking up, listening well, and offering grace even when it’s not easy.
If you’ve ever avoided conflict like the plague, struggled to embrace your weaknesses, or wondered how to build community that actually lasts, this episode will feel like a deep breath and a gentle push forward.
