The Secret to Getting Along (and Why It's Easier Than You Think): 3 Steps to Life-Changing Conflict Resolution

Conflict is everywhere—in our homes, at work, in our social media feeds. But conflict isn’t inherently bad... in fact, it’s a normal and healthy part of human relationships. Mediation expert Gabrielle Hartley argues that we’ve forgotten that disagreement is normal and even necessary in our relationships; instead, we’ve normalized a zero-sum approach to interpersonal conflict and prioritized “winning” at all costs.

• Create better outcomes even in your most difficult relationships
