Inevitably, you’re going to encounter people who simply don’t think the same way you do. Personally, it took me a long time to understand this. I always assumed that everyone problem-solved the same way, thought the same way, and came up with ideas in the same way. Like me, you might be surprised to learn that not everyone experiences inner dialogue in the same way or even at all! In fact, it’s estimated that 30 to 50% of people don’t have an “inner voice.”

Those without verbal thoughts may think abstractly or use visual imagery instead. It's important to note that there is no right or wrong way to think, and both styles have their pros and cons. Today, I’m joined by my husband Jared, who doesn’t have an inner monologue, to find out how he processes his thoughts and emotions without all the self-talk. We also explore how you can grow your relationship by learning about someone else’s communication methods, find opportunities for creativity with different thinking styles, and more!
