Death by 1000 Cuts: Why People Fight (And How to Stop It)


Listen Later

Cam and Elle discuss fights.


Are they a good sign? Are they necessary? How do we fight well? 👀


We go particularly hard about the role of growth vs fixed mindsets in romance… because The Growth Gap has ended many couples, usually years down the line.


Fun news: We're each launching communities for men and women to provide a lifeline to hope and good relationship advice. (Who knows, we may even matchmake some folks!) This is open to both single and taken friends, because we never stop dating our lover. We kick off in January 2025; sign ups found in the links below.
