About This Course

Many of the most exhausting parts of practice—performance conversations, behaviour issues, delivering difficult feedback, and discussions about fees or restructurings—are draining not just because of the content, but because of our worries and anxieties about those moments. This session uses real‑world scenarios to help participants gain awareness about aversions to these conversations and introduces a simple, repeatable process to handle them with more clarity, calm, and effectiveness.
