Episode Summary:
In today’s episode of Pivot to Prosper, Keith dives into a tricky but vital topic: negotiating with your relationship partner or spouse when you’re not on the same page about a life pivot. Whether it’s a career change, a move, or a new adventure, disagreements during transitions are common—but they don’t have to derail your relationship.

Keith shares two practical strategies to help you navigate these challenging conversations:

  1. Seek to Understand, Not to Win – Learn how listening with empathy can help lower defensiveness and build trust.
  2. Find a Middle Ground Through Compromise – Discover how to balance your needs with your partner’s concerns by testing solutions together.

By the end of this episode, you’ll have tools to approach disagreements with confidence, empathy, and a collaborative mindset.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

  • Why listening is more powerful than arguing in a disagreement.
  • How to frame compromises as trials to build trust.
  • Practical steps to turn conflict into connection during pivotal moments.
