The title of this show, Speak Up, might spark some funny reactions—some may assume it’s all about raising your voice on big issues. That’s not entirely off, but there's a right and a wrong way to talk about important, controversial, or shall we say, passionate topics.

In this episode, our host Craig O’Neill welcomes back a friend of the show and returning guest, Evan Wisner! Evan, a therapist and counselor, brings his expertise to guide us through the world of "controversial conversations."

This discussion stems from a recent exchange between Evan and Craig at a Toastmasters meeting, with the upcoming U.S. election serving as a timely backdrop.

Listeners will benefit from Evan's deep insights, offering practical advice for navigating difficult conversations—whether at work, in your personal life, or even in the shop.

Key topics include:

  • Expressing your perspective clearly
  • Responding thoughtfully to others
  • Defining what makes a conversation controversial
  • Non-violent versus violent communication

Most importantly, Evan offers invaluable advice on understanding the goal of tough conversations. If you can't avoid them, focus on listening to understand, not just to reply.

Evan’s wisdom and practical approach make him a welcome guest, and we know our listeners will take away meaningful insights from this, and future, conversations with him.
