Ever handled a situation with your wife so poorly that you wished you could rewind and do it all over again?

In this week's expert interview, Jim Ramos brings in expert Ron Deal for insight on how your brain's wiring can lead to assumptions or reactions that sabotage communication. You'll get four practical steps to stop your toxic cycles in their tracks, rebuild trust, and learn how to respond to your wife with wisdom instead of emotion in tough moments.
