About this listen

In this episode of The Good Life in Early Life, Emily is joined by returning guest and statewide Extension Educator Linda Reddish to explore how early childhood professionals can navigate conflict in the workplace with clarity, compassion, and confidence. Linda breaks down the four common types of conflict: task, process, interpersonal, and status. Then, she shares practical insights on why conflict arises, how our personal experiences shape our responses, and what it takes to approach difficult conversations effectively. Together, they discuss the importance of self-reflection, building strong professional relationships, and communicating with both accountability and kindness. Listeners will walk away with actionable strategies for engaging in healthier conversations that strengthen teamwork and promote positive work environments.
