Have you ever known you needed to have a difficult conversation—but avoided it because you didn’t want to hurt the relationship or make things worse?

In this solo episode of Good Talk with Tiffany Santana, Tiffany shares her 5P Difficult Conversation Framework—a practical, faith-forward approach to handling hard conversations with clarity, confidence, and compassion.

This framework isn’t about winning conversations. It’s about stewarding relationships well.

Whether the conversation is personal, professional, or somewhere in between, the 5P Framework will help you prepare before emotions take over.
