Welcome to How Do You Talk to Someone When, our second series from Counsel Culture Podcasts. We will be navigating our way through each of these episodes, covering topics relevant to situations we all find ourselves in regularly. Some of these situations can be difficult to know how to handle, and we may struggle to know what to say. Perhaps you may have come away from conversations and wish you could take back something you said. Or perhaps you find yourself just avoiding the tougher topics ...

Do you ever come away from a conversation and wish you could take back what you said? Or perhaps you froze up or avoided a topic as it felt too risky or loaded? There are many misconceptions out there and sometimes we have good intentions but just miss the mark when we approach difficult topics with friends and family members. Anxiety, depression, grief, addictions…Throughout this new series, we’ll be doing our best to answer the question ‘How do you talk to someone when’, covering topics that are relevant to situations we can all find ourselves in on a daily basis. In each episode, we’ll talk to people who are living through challenges, their families and loved ones doing their best to support them, as well as experts within these fields, who offer advice and wisdom to us listening. Our hope is that you will come away with practical tips and useable information that will strengthen you in your desire to be better supporters to those we love and hold dear.
