The Meaningful Life with Andrew G. Marshall

Jack Bohannan: Deal Better With Criticism


Listen Later

Can you criticise your partner without starting a flaming row, or causing them to retreat into a wounded silence? If not, you’re not alone. Many of us struggle for years to find a way to manage relationship conflict in an honest, constructive spirit. 

This week, Andrew discusses the secrets of better conflict with relationship coach JACK BOHANNON. Andrew and Jack cover:

  • Attachment theory and how it influences our capacity for constructive conflict. 
  • Better strategies for giving and receiving feedback.
  • The healing power of men’s work. 
  • AND, Andrew participates in a role play exercise designed by Jack. 
  • Jack Bohannan is a certified Somatica relationship coach. He helps clients overcome stuck relationship patterns, insecure attachment, and self-worth issues using somatic techniques. His work is experiential and involves role play, self-disclosure, and genuine conversation.
