Few things affect the quality of our lives than the quality of our relationships. All of us attended a "school of relationships" where we learned certain relationships skills and patterns. If those serve us well, our relationships will benefit. If they don't, the good news is we can always learn new relationships skills if we are humble and open to learning and willing to put the work in to create new patterns. In this episode, Scott and Holly teach one specific relationship skill known as "the soft start-up." This is in contrast to "the harsh start-up" and the kind of start-up we use to start a conversation will highly affect how that conversation unfolds. Once again, they offer three "Making It Personal" questions/prompts to help you put into practice what you have learned from this episode.
