From the bestselling author of With the End in Mind, this is a book about the conversations that matter and how to have them better – more honestly, more confidently and without regret.

A child coming out to their parent. A family losing someone to terminal illness. A friend noticing the first signs of someone’s dementia. A careers advisor and a teenager with radically different perspectives.

There are moments when we must talk, listen and be there for one another. Why do we so often come away from those times feeling like we could have done more, or should have been braver in the face of discomfort? Why do we skirt the conversations that might matter most?

By bringing together stories with a lifetime’s experience working in medicine and the newest psychology, Mannix offers lessons for how we can better speak our mind and help when others need to.

Citazioni

I've been using the word 'tender' to describe sensitive conversations for several years now. Initially, it was a spontaneous counter-response to the vocabulary of fear: 'courageous conversations', 'challenging conversations', 'difficulty conversations' all evoke a self-defence response that is the very opposite of the 'I'm here for you' mindset that these conversations require. Tenderness seemed to me to conjure the disposition most helpful for discussions that are painful for one or both parties. It acknowledges the presence of pain not as something to be overcome, but as an experience to be held with sensitivity and respect. Instead of holding myself back, I give myself. It's not about difficulty, courage or challenge. It's simply about being intentionally, fully present.
