About
A conversation with host, Caylie Lane, about style and designing a thoughtful life. Style is more than what’s at the surface; it’s self-expression, creativity, and stepping into who you are.

Most conflict isn’t happening because you “can’t communicate.” It happens because your nervous system gets activated and you lose structure. You start proving, defending, mind-reading, or stacking old hurts, and suddenly the real issue disappears.
DEAR MAN is a simple framework you can memorize and lean on when you need to ask for something, set a boundary, or address a pattern, while still protecting the relationship.
