Married After Kids

Ep. 44: One MAJOR Marital Issue and How to Deal with It


Listen Later

The Military trains our service members to be defensive, so if you’re feeling trapped in not knowing HOW to make progress with your spouse in certain scenarios, THIS episode is for you. I want to help you diffuse the situation on both ends by teaching you my top tips and tools to handle it all. Whether you’re the one who gets defensive or your spouse is the defensive one, I will help you understand how to get to a healthy resolution faster while coming from a loving place. 

 

I’m exploring: 

  • Military 101: What the GI Bill is and how you can use it
  • How to NOT push back when you feel like you’re being criticized, blamed or threatened in some way
  • What the Gottman Institute identification of defensiveness is and how you can use it to your benefit
  • Top 3 tips for managing defensiveness in the most common military marriage scenarios 
  • The ‘burger’ technique that I teach my clients and how this can help YOUR marriage today
  • 3 Things to think about FIRST when a problem arises with your spouse
  • And so much more!
