LTAC Season 3 Episode 2 – It’s the Little Things
Welcome back to the podcast Let's Talk About Conflict, where we explore the essential skills for navigating challenging conversations and managing ourselves during difficult moments. This podcast is designed to help our listeners build skills allowing them to feel more capable of managing themselves within a conflict—and maybe others!I'm your host, Lynne Nash, and today we're exploring how the little things in our relationships can slowly accumulate. Much like the story Robert Earl Keen tells in his song "It's The Little Things" it rarely is a large thing that causes the conflict—but rather the little things that just add up over time. Those small irritations - a forgotten task, an interrupted conversation, a dismissive tone - might seem insignificant in the moment, but day after day, week after week, they can stack up like tiny pebbles until they become a mountain of resentment.We'll discuss how these minor friction points or sometimes what feels like a million little cuts, when left unaddressed, can create deep rifts in our relationships, and more importantly, how to recognize and address them before they become major conflicts.Song link: Robert Earl Keen’s ‘It’s the Little Things
