Having a difficult conversation with someone

We've all been there - where we need to have a difficult conversation with someone and it just feels overwhelming, daunting and frightening. It is often hard for us to figure out what we would like to say and for many of us, we skirt around the subject, doing many dances before we get to the point. This is in the hope we can make the conversation feel easier, that is if we ever have that conversation. The alternative is that we avoid the conversation entirely. Here we talk about how can we have a difficult conversation with someone to help us feel heard and have our point across, as well as maintaining emotional safety for both people involved. Listen and share!
