In this special coaching episode of Fierce Compassion, Roxy and Prabha reflect on the challenges of engaging in hard conversations with presence and care. They explore how recognizing emotional responses and making space for dialogue can foster deeper understanding. Together, they examine the importance of holding grief, pausing when needed, and navigating conflicting strategies with intention. Through their reflections, they offer insights into when to engage, when to interrupt, and when to step back for support. Join us for this thoughtful discussion on authentic connection, wise action, and finding common ground even in challenging moments.
Our guest in this coaching episode is Prabha, an Indian-Australian psychologist and public health professional, who has worked in the areas of trauma and human rights for over 30 years. Prabha has spent much of her life adapting to different cultures. In this coaching call with Roxy, Prabha seeks support with the challenge of having an honest, meaningful conversations with a longtime friend who reacts differently to the genocide in Gaza than her —while still maintaining some sense of connection.
