Coping with Conflict: Moving Beyond Losing Strategies


Listen Later

Conflict is a natural outgrowth of two people trying to forge a life together and it presents a remarkable opportunity for growth if we allow it.

When we disagree with our spouse, we often go to behaviors that lead to hurt and frustration rather than making a concerted effort to engage often counter-intuitive, but more productive and collaborative responses.

In this episode, Dr. Finlayson-Fife joins relationship coach Anne Nelson to discuss how relationships can grow and flourish, even in the face of conflict and difference.

Listen to the episode to learn more about:

* The losing strategies we instinctively use in our relationships


* The growth opportunity provided through conflict in marriage

* How to handle differences with greater maturity and wisdom


This interview is also available on our YouTube channel HERE.

The principles in the course will help you address conflict more constructively and show you how to create a marriage where two people can thrive both together and independently.
