S3E10 - S03E010: Fierce Intimacy — Why We Argue the Way We Do I

from Hey Other Parents: An Honest Podcast About Raising Kids

HEY OTHER PARENTS – S03E010: Fierce Intimacy (Part 1): Why We Argue the Way We Do 📅 End of Season 3 This is our Season 3 finale! We’re taking a short break and will be back with Season 4 on December 12th. Thanks for spending another season with us — we seriously love hanging out with you every week. 🎙️ In This Episode: We’re kicking off our Fierce Intimacy book club with the first half of Terry Real’s relationship guide — the one that makes you stop mid-argument and go, “Oh… that’s me, isn’t it?” We dig into the big ideas from Sessions 1–3, like why we slip into shame or grandiosity during conflict, how our old “adaptive child” reactions still show up as adults, and the five losing strategies that keep couples stuck in the same fight on loop. We talk about the parts we had to reread (because ouch), what clicked instantly, and what it actually looks like to step away responsibly without storming off or shutting down. It’s honest, humbling, and very us — messy, real, and full of those moments where you realize you’re not the only one trying to repair on the fly while raising kids. ❓ Question of the Week What was your biggest takeaway from the first half of Fierce Intimacy? 📞 Call/Text: 559-LES-KIDS (559-537-5437) 📩 Email: [email protected] 📱 Instagram: @HeyOtherParents 📚 Book Club Reminder We’re reading Fierce Intimacy by Terry Real for the Hey Other Parents Book Club!
