Saying “I’m sorry” isn’t always enough. In fact, the wrong kind of apology can make things worse and leave both people feeling even more disconnected. In this episode of Relating with Jen Funk, I talk about what makes a real apology different from a fake one, and why learning this skill can transform your relationship.
You’ll hear why so many couples stay stuck in cycles of hurt, what often goes wrong when we try to apologize, and a simple framework for saying sorry in a way that actually heals. A genuine apology doesn’t just end a fight - it builds trust, restores connection, and deepens intimacy.
If you’ve ever felt like “sorry” just isn’t enough or wished your partner understood what you really needed after a conflict, this episode will give you practical tools and fresh hope for your marriage or relationship.
