One of the frequently listed "secrets" of successful relationships is good communication. But what does that actually mean, how many of us would genuinely say they do it well (spoiler alert, not that many), and why is it so hard to do?
Lisa and Wyndham reflect on their relationships with partners, friends and family to try to figure out why we often feel defensive, how easy it is to misunderstand and misconstrue what people say, and critically, why we should be looking inwards at ourselves when we find ourselves reacting to what other people say and do!
Hopefully after this episode you'll have a better idea whether you are communicating or simply talking, and importantly, what to do about it.
