From Conflict To Calm~ with Mediator Kate Russell

What if the conversations you fear most are actually the doorway to deeper connection?

In today's episode, I'm joined by Kate Russell -  a mediator with more than 20 years of experience helping people navigate the moments we tend to avoid: the hard talks, the simmering tension, the workplace or family conflict that keeps you awake at 2am replaying every word.

Kate believes conflict isn't a sign something is broken - it's a sign something matters. And in this conversation, she shares how to turn those uncomfortable moments into opportunities for clarity, confidence and stronger relationships. 

We dive into her journey into mediation, how she reframes conflict, and her practical tools for bringing up tricky conversations without triggering defensiveness.

Kate covers how to lower the temperature when things get heated, navigating conflict over text or email, and why curiosity is the most underrated relationship skill.

This episode is full of grounded, compassionate wisdom to help you communicate more openly, lead more strongly and stay connected even when things get uncomfortable.

If you've ever wished for better tools to navigate tricky conversations and conflict, this episode is for you!
