We Need To Talk is the answer to your fuck-filled, non-religious prayers
I’m your host, Iona!
My clients called me the Gentle Beast and I help women do ✸ Brave Things ✸ and live Brave Lives.
Look. I’m no natural when it comes to having hard conversations.
But when I turned 29, I noticed a pattern: all my friendships and relationships blew up, or ghosted, after 4 years.
Why? Because I was conflict-avoidant as f*ck, and had no idea how to tell people how I felt, what I needed, or when I was struggling, angry, or hurt by something.
The result: resentment.
(Maybe you can relate 💀)
Also, I was freaking out! Because my relationship with my now-husband was approaching the dreaded 4 year mark (SPOILER: I LEARNED HOW TO SAY HARD THINGS!)
I created We Need To Talk to walk you through EXACTLY how to say what you really mean to the people in your life who really need to hear it!
I hope you do the Brave Thing!
Iona
