The Relationship Skills Most of Us Were Never Taught with Anne Sidebottom

Relationships can be one of our greatest sources of support, but few of us are ever taught how to build and maintain healthy ones. In this episode, Dr Jodi Richardson is joined by counsellor and relationship coach Anne Sidebottom for a thoughtful conversation about the relationship patterns we learn in childhood, how those patterns show up in adulthood, and what it takes to create healthier, more connected relationships. Anne shares her deeply personal story of navigating betrayal, separation and single parenthood, and how those experiences ultimately led her to a career helping individuals and couples strengthen their relationships. Together, Jodi and Anne discuss the power of counselling, the importance of understanding our family influences, and why seeking support is one of the bravest steps we can take. You'll also learn Anne's practical communication framework, the Feedback Wheel, a simple tool that can help couples navigate difficult conversations with greater understanding and less defensiveness. Whether you're navigating relationship challenges, healing from the past, or simply wanting to connect more deeply with the people you love, this episode offers wisdom, hope and practical takeaways.
