How often do you finally realize what you want to say hours, days, months, or even years after a misunderstanding or disagreement? Some people need time to process, but it's easy to think you've missed your chance once the moment has passed. Learning how to have hard conversations has changed my life more than almost anything else, and I've noticed a rule many of us follow without ever questioning it: after enough time passes, you're no longer allowed to bring something up. In this episode, I'm unpacking where that rule came from, who it benefits, and the rule I've replaced it with so more women can stop carrying unresolved hurt alone and start saying what they need to say. Here's what I cover:

• How so many of the rules we live by were just made up and never questioned
• What I call a “crockpot brain” and why some people need more time to respond
• Two questions to help you decide if something still needs to be addressed
• The steps to starting a hard conversation, no matter how much time has passed
• A conversation that allowed me to resolve my hurt after carrying it for four years
