During this episode with Dr. Suzanne Lachmann, you and your partner will learn more about why many of the conflicts in your relationship are not getting resolved the way you would like. When repair and making amends seems to get more difficult over time, understanding the concepts and strategies Dr. Suzanne shares can be a game changer. The topics discussed include: Softening your perspective. Giving your partner the benefit of the doubt. Understanding flexibility can be scary. Being literal vs general. Words and promises have different meanings. Being clear and concise...words matter. Can you stop taking things personally? Creating less tension and more understanding. Moving from sacrifice to compromise. When intentions are different than impact. Trusting your partners intentions are genuine. Understanding how you each define different words. Working on trusting each other. Anger vs emphasis. Urgency may not be anger. Language may not hold as much meaning to one of you. Saying the right things, but not acting on them. How often are you disappointed? Different ways of understanding language, the world and yourself. Both partners need to work on compromising. There is no black and white in relationships. Recognizing how different your partner thinks can create more positive communication. Getting triggered and looking for your partner to make up for pain from the past. Emotional short-circuits.
