How to Talk So Your Partner Will Listen
from Love Isn't Enough
Almost everyone we've ever worked with needs help learning how to communicate better with their partner. So why is this such a ubiquitous relationship challenge? There's lots of reasons: we often are not role modeled healthy or effective communication strategies, many times we don't know what we feel, need or want, or if we do, we don't always have the words to communicate it. And even if we were able to express ourselves clearly and kindly, our partner may not have the skills to receive it well. So what happens? Frustration and resignation take over, communication becomes limited to transactional conversations and couples are left feeling disconnected. We get it - we've been there. In this episode Joree & John not only talk broadly about communication challenges in relationships, but they share their own personal journey and how once they mastered some essential tools, their communication and relationship vastly improved. If you are stuck in communication patterns that are leaving you feeling unheard or defensive, then this episode is for you!
