Our candid conversation will guide you through the tricky landscape of when to extend grace and how to determine when "enough is enough".
Navigating the currents of human interaction is no easy feat, and this episode doesn't shy away from the gritty details. We tackle the challenge of holding onto grievances and the art of making amends, while also contemplating the subtle distinction between someone's inability and unwillingness to meet expectations.
