This is really interesting and well written, Nataliya. It really chimes too. I recently had to have a very long, uncomfortable conversation with someone and, though it seemed hugely arduous at the time, it has already proved immensely (and unexpectedly) valuable.
Thanks for reading and for sharing, David. Coming from different perspectives, we usually tend to avoid friction (especially in person). But I've started to approach friction moments with curiosity and it is already changing the way I feel in a situation. It also helps me avoid falling into a "fiction" flow where I exist in my own reality. A healthy dose of challenge is good.
