Summary
This week, Kat is helping us differentiate between having a heated debate and having a respectful conversation. Every human is going to find themselves in a conversation where they do not agree with some of the other parties involved. While that may not be fun or ideal— it doesn’t mean you have to fight them! In this episode you will learn how reframing the goals of your “disagreements” allows you to understand your peers, friends, and partners better and vice versa.

| 0:19.9 | If we don't know something about ourselves |

| 0:43.0 | I don't know. Man, I'm like, I feel like everything is hard. |
| 0:50.0 | Hey, y'all. My name is Kat. I'm a human first and a licensed therapist second. And right now, |
| 0:56.1 | I'm inviting you into conversations that I hope encourage you to become more curious and less judgmental about yourself, others, and the world around you. Welcome to You Need Therapy. |

| 1:18.3 | serve as a replacement or a substitute for any actual mental health services. However, we always |
| 1:23.6 | hope that these episodes help the people that are listening in some way at some point |
| 1:28.6 | in their lives. Let's get into what we are here to talk about today. So it's all about how to |
