Relationship Communication Breakdown

In this episode, I dissect real life disagreements from couples who graciously shared their arguments (via screenshots of their personal text messages). As we discover, communication breakdown — from one or both partners — is shown to be the root cause of strife in these relationships.

The good news? Communication is a skill and, hence, something we can all learn to be better at.

 

You’ll find out:

  • My preamble re: I’m not a licensed therapist / professional
  • How communication styles differ within relationships (taking on different roles)
  • Dozens of text message examples of arguments
  • Why so many partnerships fall into 2 categories: parent vs bad child
  • My advice for those who parent in a relationship
  • The importance of pausing before reacting
  • What we respond to that makes us feeling our best
  • Why communication issues often stem from intimacy
  • My definition of intimacy
  • How intimacy is a skill
  • How Bret and I each, individually, improved our ability to communicate over the years
