Marianna Clemens, a relationship strategist who is transitioning into high conflict mediation, discusses the importance of responding rather than reacting in difficult situations.\n\nThe conversation highlights the following key points:\n\nPeople often get stuck in loops of reliving past hurts and traumas, hindering progress.\nThe goal is to move forward, even if it means accepting that some relationships cannot be mended.\nResponding allows for a more grounded and productive approach to navigating conflict.\nSelf-awareness is crucial. People sometimes become “high conflict” out of a need to be heard or a history of being unheard.\nIt's important to take responsibility for oneself and stop trying to “fix” others.\nThe episode concludes  with the idea that true growth comes from self-awareness and taking responsibility for our own well-being."}
