Get ready for the holidays! Conversations with friends and family can be challenging because the emotional stakes are higher. Conversations are colored by long, deep personal histories and it can feel easier to “take the gloves off” and be unconstrained by the politeness usually offered acquaintances.
• How might we hold the tension of our differences while working to repair connection?
• How can we not further deepen division within our circle of friends and family?
• What do you wish or hope could happen in conversations with your friends and family about meaningful differences?
• How could you prepare yourself?
• When does love supersede politics (and when does it perhaps not)?
