About this listen

This week on The Three Mantras Podcast, I talk about something we’ve almost forgotten how to do in today’s world: loving confrontation.

Not shaming.

Not canceling.

Not silence.

But the kind of honest, compassionate truth-telling that actually helps people get better.

In an age where addiction, overdose, and quiet suffering are everywhere, avoiding hard conversations doesn’t protect anyone — it isolates them. Growth doesn’t happen without reflection, and reflection often requires someone who cares enough to speak up.

As I head to Boston during Christmas week, this episode feels especially timely. The holidays bring love, memory, grief, and truth to the surface. This is a reminder that accountability and compassion can — and must — coexist.

If we really love people, we don’t abandon them to comfort.

We stay present.

We tell the truth.

And we do it with love.
