This week on Aging in Portland, I interviewed Carolyn Miller Parr, retired judge and author of the blog ToughConversations.net. We discussed her book, Grandma's Secrets: Peace around the Christmas Tree.

As everyone knows, we live in an increasingly divided nation. Extended families are divided along political lines, and even being politically correct can become controversial. As a result, conversations during the holidays can be tricky. Carolyn Miller Parr, retired Judge, mediator, and author, shares her secrets for how to have constructive, loving conversations during the holidays, even among those who disagree throughout the year. And as a bonus, Carolyn also describes the best thing about growing old. Don’t miss this timely show!
