One of the biggest challenges we've faced as a couple has been learning how to openly communicate — especially when we don't agree.

Mike tends to raise his voice, criticize and make demands.  I tend to disconnect  and hold my tongue even when there's something I really should be communicating.   

We spent years stuck in painful cycles of conflict, misunderstanding and confusion.  Thankfully, healthy communication is a skill we have intentionally developed — and it's made a HUGE difference in our ability to resolve conflict and deeply connect.

In this week's episode we'll uncover the four common styles of communication and help you develop the skill of clear, honest and more assertive communication so you can speak your truth, truly be heard and connect more with your spouse. 

We also have a special gift for you that we'll share about in this — our 50th — episode!  Some couples will take the tips in this episode and make meaningful progress…but others might need some support in exactly how to break free from painful cycles of unresolved conflict and disconnection.  If that's you, we can help! 

You probably want to feel connected to your partner — even when there's conflict.  We can coach you how to develop effective communication -  and to celebrate our 50th episode, we're going to knock $100 off as a gift to you!
