But most conflicts don’t come from bad intentions; they come from miscommunication. The good news? Strong communication skills can turn potential clashes into opportunities for collaboration and clarity.

I love the reminder of a windy day, not that we have too many here, but we did recently. Just standing outside, with the wind in my face, was magic.
