Most marriage conflict isn’t caused by bad intentions — it’s caused by bad translation.

In this episode of The High Ticket Woman, we explore why what you meant to say often sounds very different to your spouse — and how defensiveness, assumptions, and emotional filters quietly distort communication.

You’ll learn:
 • why miscommunication is so common in marriage
 • how defensiveness blocks understanding
 • the most common “translation errors” couples make
 • and practical tools for listening without spiraling

If you’ve ever thought, “That’s not what I meant at all,” this episode will help you slow down, clarify, and reconnect.

And if these patterns feel familiar, this is exactly the kind of work couples do inside Marriage in Bloom, where we help couples rebuild emotional safety and real understanding.
