In my fourth podcast, I’ll be answering a listener’s question on a topic that I think we all can relate to, decision making in relationships.  In her e-mail, Mary describes a situation where she has to choose between two people that she really cares about.  She wants to please both, but she can’t.   She doesn’t want to let either of them down, so what can she do?  I’ll discuss ways to approach this all too familiar situation.
