In this episode anger expert Alastair Duhs delves into the idea that the real danger in conflict isn't about winning the argument, but rather about losing connection with one's partner. Alastair emphasises that proving a point often comes at a high cost to trust and closeness.

Learn five strategies that encourage understanding and respect during conflicts, including highlighting the importance of listening and maintaining respectful dialogue. By focusing on understanding your partner rather than winning, relationships can grow stronger even through tough conversations.

key Takeaways:

  • In arguments, proving you're right can cost much more than you think.
  • The real danger in conflict is losing connection with your partner, not just the fight.
  • Shifting from winning to understanding can strengthen relationships during tough conversations.
  • Recognising your own anger signs is crucial for managing conflicts effectively.
  • Listening to understand, not just to respond, can lower tension and improve communication.
  • Setting ground rules for disagreements helps maintain respect and keeps conflicts constructive.
