We fight about the same thing.

I need help bringing up hard topics.

My emotions take over during arguments.

When arguments turn into bigger fights I/my partner walks away.

After an argument it takes us days to recover.

We can relate to all of these.Now what?

You are not alone!

Perpetual Problems and Gridlock "Some problems get stuck, but they don't have to stay stuck."

The majority of relationship conflicts (69%) fall into the category of “perpetual.” So while that may seem disheartening to hear at first, the good news is that it’s normal to find yourselves in conflict about the same thing time after time. And perpetual problems don’t keep your relationship from thriving. What’s important is to keep these recurring issues from becoming what we call “gridlocked.”

In Dealing with Conflict, you will learn how to address recurring issues within your relationship. Learn more.

Hard conversations don't have to be so hard

"Start a constructive conversation about a specific complaint."

The antidote to Criticism is what we call the Softened Start-Up. Rather than attacking your partner’s character or making sweeping negative statements about them, the Softened Start-Up is a way of addressing a specific complaint in a gentle way. It leads to a constructive dialogue about what’s bothering you, rather than an argument that goes nowhere and creates defensiveness.

In Dealing with Conflict you will learn how to approach conflict conversations gently, in a way that addresses specific issues. Learn more.

Understand Your Emotions

"Understand how you learned to relate to emotions."

Everyone has emotions. But what do we do with them? Learn about two emotional styles: Emotion Dismissing and Emotion Accepting. Both have benefits. The more you understand your style and your partner's style the more you can understand each other during conflict.

In Dealing with Conflict you will learn which style you each have, and how to navigate your individual styles together. Learn more.

Flooding

Flooding is the name for “fight, flight, or freeze.”

What happens to you or your partner when you argue? Chances are you’ve experienced Flooding and not even been fully conscious of it happening. The good news is that once you’re able to identify Flooding, you can work to prevent it, manage it, and repair conversations once they’ve gone overboard.

In Making up after an Argument you will learn how to keep flooding from capsizing your conflict conversations. Learn more.

How to repair after an argument

Our relationships are never perfect. Sooner or later, we all have bad fights or regrettable incidents between us. Making up after an argument will focus on how to understand what went wrong during the incident and how to make things better next time.

In Making up after an Argument you will learn the importance of repair, plus how to notice and make repairs in conversation. Learn more.

Conflict is part of every relationship. But when you know how to fight the right way, you learn how to love better. And that changes everything. With the All About Conflict Bundle you will receive two courses to cover everything from perpetual problems to repair after a hard conversation.
