13) Navigating Conflict in Marriage
If you have a pulse, then you've probably been upset, disappointed, or angry about something before. What happens when your spouse triggers your frustration, or vice versa? In this episode, we discuss conflict resolution within marriage. At some point in time, you will disagree with your spouse, and that is okay. In many ways, the health of your marriage depends on how you prevent, navigate, and resolve tension. Throughout our conversation, we want you to consider a few things:
How have YOU historically navigated conflict in other areas of life?
When disagreeing with your spouse, do you just wanna be right or re-aligned?
Both you and your spouse should feel seen, heard, & understood by the end of conflict.
Arguing can be healthy, when done respectfully and aims to reach consensus.
