041: Bringing Care and Consciousness to Relationship Conflict with Bryan Reeves

We love inviting aligned male energy into the Desire on Fire orbit!     Bryan Reeves is a former US Air Force Captain — a man's man in the eyes of the world who grew up with all the emotion-denying messages that young American boys and men grow up with.    After a debilitating heartbreak in his late 20s, he finally decided to undertake the huge journey back to himself. He learned how to break free from the damaging social conditioning that was keeping him from experiencing real love and intimacy, and today he is a globally-renowned relationship coach and author.    We discuss some of the major struggles men and women face today in relationships, including how to have authentic, skillful communication and how to navigate conflict in a way that preserves deep respect, love, and connection. Ladies, this is the perfect episode to listen to with your partner!    In this episode, we explore:   How healthy relationships can help balance and soothe our nervous systems   A game-changing way to approach honesty (we're often missing a secret ingredient) Why "controlling" your emotions isn't the answer — and what you actually need for better wellbeing and life-giving relationships     Connect with Bryan: https://bryanreeves.com/ https://www.instagram.com/bryanreevesinsight/ http://www.youtube.com/c/BryanReevesOfficial   "The Boundaries Program: Relationships Suck Without Boundaries!" is on sale at https://bryanreeves.com/Boundaries/  Join us (and 300+ women!) in-person at the Desire on Fire Experience event, October 1-2 in Southern California! www.desireonfirelive.com Code: DESIRE for $500 off the regular ticket price!   Explore our website: https://www.desireonfire.com/ Come and join our FB community: https://www.facebook.com/groups/DesireOnFire/ And connect with us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/desireonfire/   Connect with Aimee: https://www.instagram.com/aimeebatuski/   Connect with Ellie: https://www.instagram.com/elliemontgomerie
