We cannot have true safety, intimacy, and depth without hard conversations.
Yet many of us struggle to know how to have a hard conversation and, when we try, it just seems to make things worse rather than better.
So what's the point then?
The point is this: “The quality of your relationships determines the quality of your life.” - Esther Perel
The quality of how you communicate determines the quality of your relationships.
If your relationship is not where you want it to be, there is a high chance some issues are being swept under the rug in favour of "peace."
It's time to learn how to have hard conversations so that you can not only cultivate a deeper sense of safety and stability within your relationship, but also within yourself.
Not coincidentally, this is a big component of healing from chronic skin picking, hair pulling, and nail biting too!

🌟The 3 styles of couples when it comes to conflict
