Women have a unique ability to sense and feel subtle changes and shifts. But this ability can trigger defensiveness and resistance in their male partners. This resistance can be harm the growth and evolution of the relationship, causing stagnation and even leading to dysfunctional dynamics.

As Lorin explores in this episode, the key lies in acknowledging and validating the woman's intuition and using it as a tool for growth and deeper connection. For men, this means recognising when they’re triggered, being honest about it, and thanking their partner for their insights. For women, it means not taking the resistance personally and reframing it as a reflection of the other’s inability to hold deep truths, rather than a judgment of their intuitive power.

If the woman feels invalidated and the man stays stuck in his defensiveness, this will harm a relationship in the long term. It can lead to resentment, and create a stalemate where neither party evolves or grows.

But understanding the power of a woman's intuition and how to work with it it can be a game-changer. We can start by sharing our feelings, expressing when we feel triggered, and practicing active listening to validate and honour each-other's experiences.
