Our fave guest ever to be on the show is back! We’re so pumped to present this special episode with the Fish, James Fish Gill. Resident conflict and communication specialist, Fish appeared on episodes 62 and 69, so go and listen to those if you haven’t yet!

Fish is a heart coach, giving couples communication tools to transform relationship conflict. He is a yoga teacher as well, and runs retreats for individuals and couples which we’re sure are beautiful experiences.

We get deep into conflict communication on this episode, as always using some recent examples from our relationship to get an insight into the work. As always, we’re blown away with the tools Fish shares, this really resonated with us.

He talked about the concept of no-one being wrong and no-one being right and conflict and how if we can get our heads around this, conflict won’t get to the crisis stage. Fish spoke about honouring the other party’s pain, as well as understanding that they never set out with an intention to hurt you, even if it feels like it.

This really hit with us, especially the part about holding your own pain as well as opening to the other party’s intention. Woah. This is something we will be focusing on in our interactions. Wouldn’t you just love a Fish in your back pocket?!

We hope to collaborate with Fish in the near future, however in the meantime, seek him out for wisdom and guidance around conflict in your relationships - @james_fish_gill on Insta and leadbyheart.com
