Conflicts arise for many reasons in relationships, right? There are so many variables, and so many triggers, and so many different contexts that every single relationship can have a specific issue to work on. The good news is: there are solutions that can be applied for every kind of problem, most of them based on dialogue, active listening, awareness, and trying to understand the partner. Both sides need to be heard. In this episode of Hidden Potential Podcast, Sarah welcomes Dr. Eva Brown to explain what those solutions are, how conflicts can be solved with easy and simple techniques, and what kind of actions and behaviors we reproduce that might be ruining the intimacy. Dr. Eva also shares that it’s important not to think you’re entitled to treat your partner badly if you’re having an argument. Tune in to learn a lot more!

“If we only love our partners when they’re showing up in their best selves, that’s called conditional love. How can we be unconditional when our partner is triggered?” – Dr. Eva Brown
