What happens when I don’t agree?

Recently, my partner and I were confronted with a challenge that involved the family. My partner based his opinion on his experience and I based my opinion on mine. So, whose opinion is valid?

1 important question to keep you on track and that is “why is this important?”. Why takes us back to a common purpose in which we can then focus on a solution, without being stuck in the what and who.

So remember 3, 2, 1 lift off!!!
