Quick Hits are 10-minute conversations designed to exercise your brain by letting you listen in on an unscripted conversation to hear other people‘s thoughts on a variety of subjects. In February of 2021 I and the members of my mastermind group thought other people might enjoy listening in on some of the lively conversations we were having. But we realized that no one was going spend 90-minutes listening to us going on about anything and sometimes nothing. Instead, we decided to pick one topic and have a short conversation to share. I took the reigns because facilitating those types of conversations sounded like fun. Over the course of a few months it grew from just members of our mastermind group to four (sometimes three if schedules go sideways) people from various parts of the world and from ”short” to exactly 10-minutes. Thus was born ”Quick Hits” hosted by me, Dr Robyn. I hope to get caught up with posting them here on PodBean at some point. As of this writing, I have over 100 ”episodes.” If you‘d like to see the videos of these conversations, they are available on my YouTube channel: https://bit.ly/DrRobynQuickHits If you have a topic you‘d like to hear discussed, I encouraged you to use the contact page of my website: https://drrobynodegaard.com/ to let me know.

What is the difference between a difficult conversation and a fight?

The answer isn’t clear logically, but we can tell emotionally. There can be a physical shift when a tough conversation becomes a fight.
Your body might start to get tense, as if it has become aware that there is now a battle and the focus becomes winning rather than understanding.
That’s when it is time to call time out. At that point, nothing productive will come out of the conversation because it’s no longer about the issue at hand. It’s about protecting the ego.
How can we recognize this shift when a difficult conversation becomes a fight and how can we prevent it from happening?
I put this question to my guests on this edition of Quick Hits — Jim Tam of Keystone Partners, performance consultant Dr. Jenna Ross and Amorpha CEO Simon Coles.
We also talked about the best way to respond to someone who no longer wants to talk and is just interested in cutting us down.
Our conversation was not difficult, but it was certainly interesting.
How do you know when a conversation as become a fight?
