Starting today and for the next few weeks, communication is your ally at home or with chosen kin. If someone’s neglecting the chore roster, or your roommate is ferreting chocolate from your stash, start a conversation. Naming your irritation helps you diffuse it, and you have extra ability now to state your case. Just remember to zoom out and consider the wider perspective. Your cohabitors will be more ready to listen if they feel witnessed and respected too.
