In episode 43 of the Better Relationships Podcast, Dr. Dar Hawks, the relationship healer, delves into the common marriage problems and effective solutions to address them. Dr. Dar emphasizes the importance of becoming aware of problematic relationship behaviors and cultivating self-awareness to foster healthier interactions with your partner.

Dr. Dar discusses a range of destructive behaviors that compassionate women may unknowingly engage in, such as assuming what their partner thinks, interrupting, reacting defensively, and more. She provides practical strategies to replace these behaviors with healthier ones, such as identifying dissimilarities, focusing on self-improvement, healing negative communication, and learning compassionate communication skills.

Dr. Dar also explores various alternatives to traditional therapy, including experiential methods like marriage enrichment programs, holistic methods such as mindfulness and meditation, and creative approaches like relationship check-ins and date nights with a twist. She highlights the importance of support groups, online resources, and mentorship, cautioning listeners to choose facilitators who offer structured transformation and customized support.
