Everything Our Parents Taught Us About Conflict

EPISODE 37 — 22 April 2023

But I think with our family itself, a lot of the time it’s like, “Let’s sweep it under the rug…let’s not talk about it” so that’s how I dealt with family conflict growing up.
— Wendy
 

ABOUT THE EP

Why do we sweep conflict under the rug in Asian households? Is conflict good or bad? What has saving 'face' got to do with it? We dive deep into Western vs Eastern styles of dealing with conflict, why they are often opposing, and how to manage conflict and bridge the cultural differences.
