“The single greatest problem with communication is the illusion that it has taken place.”

- George Bernard Shaw

Communication is the key to healthy relationships. It is the key to getting what we want in life through setting healthy boundaries, expressing our inner thoughts and feelings, and having those meaningful intimate conversations that we are afraid to have. Leaning into life in this way creates extremely meaningful relationships where we can be authentic and fully seen and supported by other people. Expressing our "withholds" with those close to us in a healthy way is a key principle in creating fulfilling relationships.
