Talk To Connect

In the premiere episode of Talk To Connect, host Michell Franklin invites listeners into a transformative conversation about communication—especially the kind we tend to avoid. Whether you’re a parent navigating tension with your teen, a partner trying to reconnect, or a leader facing difficult team dynamics, this episode offers a powerful framework for approaching hard conversations with courage, clarity, and compassion.Michell introduces her original H.A.R.D. model, a four-part approach that reframes what it means to speak up when it matters most. H.A.R.D. stands for Heart, Appreciation, being Real, and Direct—four pillars that guide listeners toward more authentic and effective communication.If this episode resonates for you, please follow the podcast.Questions or stories?
