Podcasts about couples

this episode centers on two relationship emails, one about a woman wondering if she's missed her chance at love after years of bullying and self-doubt, and another about financial incompatibility, boundaries, and whether a relationship can survive when two people have completely different visions for the future. Throughout the conversation, Chris and Peaches explore self-worth, dating after trauma, people-pleasing, accountability, childhood conditioning, financial values, communication, and why compatibility matters more than chemistry. If you've ever wondered why dating feels so difficult, struggled with low self-esteem after rejection, questioned whether you're settling in a relationship, or felt stuck between love and incompatibility, this episode is for you. Expect honest opinions, practical relationship advice, real-world communication strategies, and conversations about boundaries, emotional healing, dating standards, financial compatibility, and building healthier relationships. Whether you're single, dating, or in a long-term partnership, you'll walk away with a better understanding of what creates lasting connection, and what quietly destroys itBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/2-be-better--5828421/support.

From "snuggle muffin" to "baby bear," they explore the emotional reactions these nicknames provoke—both positive and negative. The duo also examines whether using pet names actually deepens emotional intimacy or creates a barrier of artificial closeness.

Why are the very people we long to be closest to also the ones who hurt us the most? The paradox of intimacy is that our yearning for closeness often puts us at risk of pain, creating a delicate dance between connection and self-protection. As we draw near to those we love, our natural defenses can surface—sometimes in ways that inadvertently push each other away, leaving us feeling misunderstood or isolated even in our most important relationships. In this episode, the conversation dives into this very dilemma, exploring how our protective instincts can unintentionally create distance within our most cherished bonds. Listeners will discover why vulnerability feels so risky, how to recognize when their own "bodyguards" are at play, and practical paths to move from defensiveness back toward genuine connection. Through relatable stories and actionable guidance, the episode offers tools to nurture intimacy, strengthen repair, and foster lasting emotional safety in partnership. Dr. James Cordova, Professor of Psychology at Clark University, is the developer of The Relationship Checkup, a relationship healthcare intervention designed to be the relationship health equivalent of an annual physical checkup. Dr. Cordova is the founder and president of Arammu Inc., a university-based relationship healthcare company created to disseminate The Relationship Checkup and evidence-based relationship healthcare throughout both military and civilian populations. He is also the author of the recently published book, The Mindful Path to Intimacy.   Episode Highlights 04:08 Porcupine nature and need to snuggle. 08:12 Learning to stay vulnerable and mitigate defenses. 10:05 Fight, flight, and the challenge of staying connected. 16:10 Finding humor and forgiveness in everyday annoyances. 17:09 Little hurts, unspoken needs, and the risk of disconnection. 23:39 Curiosity and compassion for your partner's inner world. 30:43 Understanding personal defense mechanisms. 31:29 Choosing vulnerability over protection. 37:14 The high cost of disconnection and misinterpretation. 38:52 Making relationship health proactive, not reactive. 43:55 Annual relationship checkups for lasting connection.   Your Checklist of Actions to Take Identify Your Bodyguards: Become aware of your instinctive protective responses in relationship conflicts so you can notice when they're taking over. Acknowledge Vulnerability: Accept that vulnerability will always feel risky, but that authentic connection requires it. Communicate Softly When Hurt: When you feel hurt, express it in a clear and vulnerable way instead of becoming reactive or defensive. Seek Repair Quickly: If a rupture occurs, prioritize reaching out for repair—apologize, listen, and reconnect as soon as possible. Stay Curious About Your Partner: Practice ongoing curiosity and seek to understand your partner's experience and changing needs. Offer and Receive Forgiveness: When mistakes happen, forgive yourself and your partner, recognizing the common humanity in imperfection. Practice Regular Relationship Checkups: Engage in annual or periodic relationship assessments to stay proactive about relational health. Value Connection Over Pride: Make a conscious choice to value closeness and repair more than being "right" or protecting your ego.   Mentioned The Mindful Path to Intimacy (*Amazon Affiliate link) (book) Marriage, Divorce, and the Immune System (*PubMed Central) (article) Janice Kiecolt-Glaser 12 Relationship Principles to Strengthen Your Love (free relationship guide)   Connect with Dr. James Cordova Website: arammu.com Facebook: facebook.com/RelationshipCheckup Instagram: instagram.com/relationshipcheckup LinkedIn: linkedin.com/company/arammu  

Guest: Clarissa CappellettiCompany: WeRoadEpisode Focus: Solo travel, destinations, travel confidence, safety, age, and finding connection on the road In This Episode What happens when someone who has visited 58 countries gives us the real talk on solo travel? We sit down with Clarissa Cappelletti, Regional Manager for English-speaking travel coordinators at WeRoad, to talk about where solo travelers should go, where they might want to wait, and why you shouldn't let fear — or a destination's reputation — decide your next adventure. Clarissa shares how she went from growing up in a tiny Swiss village to living in four countries and traveling the world, why she didn't start solo traveling until her late 20s, and how becoming the only single person in her friend group helped push her into traveling on her own. We Talk About: Growing up in an 87-person Swiss village How Clarissa caught the travel bug during a California road trip with her dad Living in Switzerland, Italy, the United States, and the UK Why London surprised her the most Traveling to 58 countries Why Colombia exceeded her expectations The Lost City Trek Why Nepal is one of her favorite destinations Italy's incredible history The best destinations for active travelers Why South Africa is underrated for adventure travel Switzerland vs. Latin America for travel costs The destination that challenged Clarissa the most: Japan Her favorite countries for food Why she could happily return to Colombia and Nepal Why "hidden gems" don't stay hidden for long How social media is changing tourism Her definition of solo travel: "Discovery" Why solo travel isn't necessarily lonely The importance of human connection while traveling How media can influence perceptions of travel safety Whether you're ever "too old" for solo travel The biggest solo-travel mistake people make Why first-time solo travelers should start small Why the Maldives isn't just for couples How language barriers can affect your first solo trip Why travelers shouldn't automatically write off Latin America Mongolia, Central Asia, Canada and New Zealand on Clarissa's bucket list And, of course… the infamous Jordan canyoning wig story! Clarissa's Travel Picks Unexpected favorites: Colombia & Nepal Best for history: Italy Best for mountain adventures: Nepal & Switzerland Underrated for active travel: South Africa Food favorites: Italy, Mexico, Peru, South Africa & Southeast Asia Places she'd happily revisit: Colombia & Nepal Top wishlist destinations: Central Asia, Mongolia, Canada, New Zealand & Patagonia Solo Travel Takeaways Start small. Your first solo trip doesn't have to be two weeks on another continent. Don't overthink it. There is no single perfect destination. Do your safety research. Know the areas, activities, and situations that require extra awareness. Don't let fear make the decision for you. Language matters. If you're new to solo travel, going somewhere where you can communicate easily may make your first trip less stressful. Don't assume a destination isn't for you. Couples' destination? Family destination? Bachelorette destination? Who cares. Go anyway. And most importantly: JUST TRIP IT. Favorite Quote From Clarissa "Solo travel in one word: discovery." And honestly, we couldn't have said it better. A Question For Our Travel Brats Would you take your first solo trip tomorrow if you knew you couldn't talk yourself out of it? Tell us where you'd go!

Should married couples combine finances, or does keeping money separate offer more protection? Anthony sits down with Durelle and Samantha Bailey - Entrepreneurs, Content Creators, and Hosts of The Bailey Way, to discuss the trust, communication, and shared vision required to build wealth as a team.After nine years of marriage, Durelle and Samantha reveal why love alone is not enough, how they built six figures in savings and investments by age 31, and why almost every account they own is joint.

1 in 6 couples worldwide is now struggling to conceive — and in most cases, the real root causes never get tested. Dr. Josh Axe walks through the 6 functional and ancient medicine root causes driving the infertility epidemic, the suppressed Fauci texts on COVID vaccines and miscarriage risk, and the exact diet, supplement, and lifestyle plan that can shift your fertility in as little as 90 days. Food is medicine, and your body was designed to heal — this episode shows you how to work with it, not against it. **In this episode:** - The Fauci texts that went public: what he privately said about mRNA vaccines and miscarriage risk, and what two large-scale studies (200,000+ pregnancies) actually found - The #1 root cause Josh sees in clinical practice — and why fixing blood sugar alone has helped more women conceive than almost anything else - Why your TSH can look completely normal while thyroid antibodies are silently blocking ovulation and raising miscarriage risk - The 10-marker fertility blood panel Josh runs — the specific labs (free T3, ferritin, TPO antibodies, fasting insulin) that standard workups miss - What Chinese medicine calls "kidney yang deficiency" and "damp phlegm," what those patterns actually mean in functional terms, and the warming foods that address both - The 90-day fertility window: why eggs take 90 days and sperm 74 to mature, and how today's changes show up in 3 monthsDownload my FREE PDF "Fertility Foundations": https://bit.ly/draxefertilityfoundations Uncover what's really going on in your body with advanced biomarker testing for hormones, thyroid, and metabolism— plus a 1-hour consultation with a Senior Health Advisor! → http://mybloodwork.com *Disclaimer: The bloodwork our team runs at mybloodwork.com covers a handful of the biomarkers listed in the guide above — including critical thyroid and metabolic markers — plus a 1-hour consultation with a Senior Health Advisor, but does NOT cover all 25.

Sam set a trap for an AI chatbot: a series of wedding questions he already knew it would get wrong, just to see how wrong. The answers were bad enough to bring straight to the show.

On this episode of CFO at Home, Vince talks with David Kennington, an author with 30+ years experience working as a tradesman, about trades as a viable path to making and building wealth, David explains how credit cards and lifestyle creep can quickly push tradespeople beyond their means, and notes that trades and technical training often include little financial education, making discipline and understanding the psychological side of spending crucial. They also discuss emotional attachments that drive bad financial choices, the role of spouses and clear communication in correcting ·financial misbehavior,· and how overtime or higher-paying jobs can help pay down debt only if intentionally paired with a plan.

Your marriage doesn't need another temporary fix. It needs a reboot at the heart level, the kind that happens when we stop making excuses, step into God's light, and let His Word tell the truth about us. We talk candidly about how sin we don't deal with, pride we don't name, and lies we quietly believe can overload the “hard drive” of our souls until we're tired, reactive, and stuck straddling the fence.We walk through a simple three-step process you can use anytime: reassess, remember, and remain. Psalm 119 shows us how to come to God with real requests, real need, and real expectancy, while Romans 7 puts language to the ongoing battle between the flesh and the Spirit. Remembering the cross changes what we want, not just what we know. It reshapes how we speak to our spouse, how we respond under stress, and how we move from self-rule to humility.Then we get practical about remaining. John 15 is clear: we cannot be “half connected” and expect lasting fruit. We share an everyday picture of what happens to a branch that's barely hanging on, and we apply it to Christian marriage, spiritual renewal, and daily rhythms in God's Word. We end by praying with David for what so many of us need: “Give me an undivided heart.” If this encouraged you, subscribe, share it with a friend who needs hope, and leave a review so more couples can find biblical marriage help.Support the showFor episode transcripts, click HERE.For more marriage encouragement, visit: www.VowsToKeep.com | V2K Blog | Marriage Counseling | Insta | FBApple Podcast listener?

In this 23-minute episode, I explore what it really means to expect more from men;  not from a place of criticism or perfectionism, but from a belief in their capacity to grow.We talk about the difference between supporting our partners and becoming their therapists, mothers, or emotional managers; why we need to stop glorifying breadcrumbs and the bare minimum; and how overfunctioning can prevent the people we love from stepping up and taking responsibility for their own growth.I also explore the Kabbalistic concept of “earning the light,” why growth often requires choosing the uncomfortable path, and what Ted Lasso can teach us about a version of masculinity where pain, vulnerability, kindness, accountability, and strength can coexist.Ultimately, this episode is an invitation to raise our standards without trying to control another person and to remember that believing in someone's potential also means believing they're capable of doing their own work.♾ In a fast-paced world like the one we live in, time is one of our most important assets. For a few minutes every episode, I, Tannaz Hosseinpour, will be discussing topics that aim to enhance the quality of your life, by helping you feel empowered to take inspired action on your personal growth journey.Connect with me for daily insights:InstagramFacebookTikTokMore resources available on www.minutesongrowth.comThis podcast is for educational purposes only.

— Today's conversation is about a health issue that affects millions of families but is rarely talked about openly. While it primarily impacts men, it often becomes a shared experience for couples. If your partner is waking up several times a night to use the bathroom, struggling with urinary symptoms, or simply saying, "It's just part of getting older," this episode is for you. Benign prostatic hyperplasia, or BPH, is an incredibly common condition as men age, yet many delay seeking help—even though effective treatments are available. The result isn't just interrupted sleep for them; it can affect the well-being, rest, intimacy, and quality of life of both partners. Today, we'll explore what BPH really is, the signs to look for, how to start compassionate conversations with a loved one, and the treatment options that can help men regain comfort, confidence, and a better quality of life. Joining us today is urologist Dr. Sravan Panuganti, who specializes in men's urologic health and is passionate about helping patients find effective, personalized solutions so they can get back to living life more fullyValeria sits with Dr. Sravan Panuganti — He is a urologist with Carolina Urology Partners and an assistant professor in urology at the Virginia College of Osteopathic Medicine in Spartanburg, S.C.

Since 1973, Missouri has been among a handful of states where judges would not grant divorce if one of the spouses was pregnant. But as of today, that's no longer the case. We hear from the state representative who sponsored a new law that clarifies such proceedings, and we discuss what the change could mean for families, and for courts, with a St. Louis family law attorney.

With food prices sky high, food waste is an area of real concern - and potential savings. Clark breaks down the truth behind confusing expiration dates like "Best By" versus "Use By" as marketing tactics designed to get you to buy more often. Also, Clark tackles a critical and all too common relationship issue: one partner completely in the dark about household money. A household culture of "he handles it" or "she takes care of that"  is a pathway to financial stress, hidden debt, and complete chaos if the unexpected occurs. Clark discusses how couples can maintain financial independence without secrets, and outlines a simple seasonal document routine to ensure both partners always know where all accounts, debts, and assets are located.

What if the biggest threat to your marriage isn't infidelity, incompatibility, or a lack of love, but the slow loss of curiosity, trust, and attraction? In this episode of Thoughts From the Chair, Chris breaks down what happens when couples stop discovering each other and start operating from assumptions, outdated stories, resentment, and familiarity. You'll hear why you may know everything about your spouse's routine while knowing very little about who they're becoming, how confirmation bias can trap your partner inside an old version of themselves, and why continuing to court, communicate with, and stay curious about your spouse matters in a healthy long-term relationship.The conversation also dives into privacy vs. secrecy in marriage, phone passwords, location sharing, emotional affairs, boundaries, rebuilding trust after betrayal, and when transparency crosses the line into surveillance. Chris then tackles one of the harder conversations in marriage, whether attraction can survive familiarity, and the responsibility both partners have to remain physically, emotionally, and relationally attractive. If you're struggling with marriage communication, resentment, trust issues, intimacy, emotional connection, a sexless marriage, or feeling more like roommates than lovers, this episode will challenge you to stop asking whether your partner has changed and start asking whether you've continued paying attention.Disclaimer: We are not professionals.

Got some sh!t to say?In this ENCORE episode, Marko and Steve dive into the often-taboo topic of masturbation within committed relationships. They explore how self-pleasure can be a healthy, personal form of sexual expression, even when one has an available and willing partner. The conversation navigates questions like: Should your partner fulfill all your sexual needs? Or is it reasonable—and even beneficial—for individuals to maintain a solo sexual practice? They address common misconceptions, emotional impacts, and how open communication plays a key role in balancing intimacy with personal autonomy. To wrap things up, they tackle the week's Listener Sh!tuation, offering their thoughts and guidance on a real life dilemma from the audience.-Articles:Psych Central | Is It Typical to Masturbate When You're Married?Guy Stuff | Why Does My Husband Prefer His Hand Over Me?Support the showSh!t | Leave us a voicemail with your relationship sh!tuation at (903) POD- SHIT.  That's (903) 763-7448.  You can also fill out a Listener Sh!tuation on our website, podrelationshit.com, or email us at relationshitquestions@gmail.com.

Have you ever walked away from a conversation with your spouse thinking, "That's not what I meant at all"? Or wondered why you keep having the same argument over and over again? The truth is, most couples aren't struggling because they don't love each other, they're struggling because they communicate differently. In this episode, Dr. Kim is joined by licensed therapist and author Jason Van Ruler to unpack the five communication types and why understanding your spouse's communication style can completely change the way you approach conflict. They talk about why we so often take our differences personally, how stress affects the way we communicate, and why learning to truly listen may be the most powerful thing you can do for your marriage. If you've ever felt misunderstood or wished your spouse "just got you," this conversation will help you replace frustration with understanding and give you practical tools to communicate in a way that brings you closer instead of pushing you apart.   Episode Highlights: Why communication breaks down—and why it's probably not for the reason you think. Discover your communication type and learn how it shapes every conversation with your spouse. Simple shifts that will help you feel more seen, heard, and understood in your marriage. Stop taking communication differences personally and start using them to grow closer.   Quotes from This Episode: Jason VanRuler "We aren't very well versed in communicating for connection." "The more we feel we can't communicate, the more we believe the lie that our spouse must like it that way." "We're experts in what we meant, but we're not experts in what our spouse experienced." "Understanding your communication type takes the personal offense out of conflict and helps you ask, 'What did they mean?'" "A great communicator isn't someone who thinks they're communicating well—it's someone who understands how other people experience them." "When life gets hard, we all go back to our primary communication style. That's why understanding each other matters most in conflict." "From birth, we all want to feel seen, heard, and understood."   Dr. Kim Kimberling "Most couples don't know why they struggle to communicate—they just know it creates distance." "We're fighting our differences instead of embracing them and learning how they can strengthen our marriage." "Bad communication gets in the way of being a great team." "When I really learned to listen to Nancy, it changed our marriage." "Sometimes the simplest advice is the most powerful: let your spouse finish." "If you attack the problem, you can find a solution. If you dance around it, you'll never solve it." "The healthiest marriages keep working on communication because every season of life requires new ways of understanding each other."   Time to Talk About it: When do you feel the most heard and understood by me? Is there anything I could do differently to help you feel that way more often? Which communication style do you think describes each of us best, and how have our differences helped—or challenged—our marriage? What's one small change we could each make this week to communicate with more grace, patience, and understanding?   Mentioned in This Episode: You need to get your hand on Jason's new book: Discovering Your Communication Type: The 5 Paths To Deepen Connections and Stronger Relationships  Sign up for our daily One Thing email!

Zach steps out of the host chair for this one. In a swap with Heather Shannon of Sex for Couples, Zach is the guest, and the conversation goes straight at a question most couples never ask out loud: what is sex actually for, and does that answer change over the life of a marriage? Zach, who's been married almost thirty years, and Heather dig into why frequency becomes the default target when quality and clarity would serve couples better.The conversation moves through the different eras a long marriage passes through, the anthropological reasons couples tend to hit a reset every few years, and the idea that any long marriage is really four or five different marriages stitched together. Zach shares specific, practical scenes from his own relationship, including a three hour float down a river with his wife where they talked about sex without ever touching, and describes a couple in his practice who solved their standoff by simply negotiating who gets what on which night. Heather brings in patterns she sees in her own client work, particularly the tendency to take sexual disconnection personally and the exhausting decision fatigue around initiating. Together they name two questions Zach uses to open nearly every session on this topic: what's it for, and what counts.The takeaway isn't a technique. It's a shift in framing, from sex as an obligation or a performance with a pass or fail outcome, to sex as something couples can actually get better at on purpose, the same way they'd get better at any skill they cared about. For anyone who's felt the pressure of "we should be having more sex" without ever stopping to ask what sex is supposed to accomplish, this conversation gives language for that gap, and permission to define it differently.Key TakeawaysFrequency is the wrong target. The better question is whether the sex you're having is actually good, and whether you're willing to get better at it on purpose.Sex is a skill, not a talent you either have or don't. It can be learned, practiced, and improved the same way any hobby can.Ask "what counts?" Narrow definitions of sex (intercourse only, simultaneous orgasm only) create a lot of ways to fail and very few ways to succeed.Intimacy is broader than sex. Physical closeness that isn't sexual, and sexual conversation that isn't physical, both count and both matter.Spontaneity is a myth for anything you actually care about. Couples plan meals, workouts, and sleep. Sex deserves the same intentionality.When you don't want sex, get specific about what you don't want. It's rarely your partner. It's more often boredom, exhaustion, or feeling obligated.A long marriage isn't one marriage. It's several different eras, and checking in roughly every three years, with a therapist or a trusted person, helps couples pivot into the next one.The most durable relationship habit isn't avoiding conflict, it's getting good at repair, and doing more of what your partner likes while doing less of what they don't.Guest InfoThis episode centers on a conversation between Zach and Heather Shannon, LCPC, CST (she/her), an AASECT Certified Sex Therapist and host of the podcast Sex for Couples. Heather refers to working directly with clients around sex and communication in relationships throughout the conversation.Listen to Sex For Couples: podfollow.com/askasextherapistWebsite: HeatherShannon.coSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

What becomes possible when you're intentional with your money?In this co-hosted episode, Linzy & Diane dive into a conversation about money that's both philosophical and practical. Together, they explore the idea that money is essentially an inert tool — it doesn't have meaning until we determine its purpose and give it a job.Linzy and Diane talk about practical ways to give your dollars a clear function, and they reflect on what they've seen shift and change in their own lives as they've shown up in their businesses, made investments, and created meaning with their money.When you're intentional with your money, your dollars can become skills, systems, freedom, growth, and the building blocks for the business and life you want to create.Timestamps:01:29 - Why money needs purpose and direction03:22 - When money sits unused or moves without intention07:25 - Giving every dollar a specific job13:55 - Using money for buffers, taxes, and future goals19:14 - Investing extra business money in skills22:41 - Why investments must be followed by action26:20 - Choosing what to learn and who to learn from29:23 - Building courage, self-trust, and financial resilience34:09 - Money Skills for Group Practice Owners: the BC grant and the first in-person eventsMentioned in this Episode: Ed CoambsEp 170: Healing Financial Trauma with Ed CoambsEp 202: Shared Finances, Shared Growth: Tackling Financial Dynamics in Couples with Ed CoambsLindsay Bryan-PodvinEp 40: Managing Financial Anxiety and Preparing for a Recession with Lindsay Bryan-PodvinTiffany McLainEp 60: Raising Fees and Showing Up Differently with Tiffany McLainEp 216: Podcast Takeover: How to Build a Life First Fee Therapy Practice with Tiffany McLainWant to feel more calm and confident about your money?

Couples can spend years planning the wedding, yet barely consider the financial contract that begins the moment they say "I do." And here's the catch: there is no such thing as having no agreement. If you don't write your own, the state effectively writes one for you. In this episode of The Valley Current®, host Jack Russo explores the legal minefield of prenuptial agreements across 50 states, Washington, D.C., and Puerto Rico, where crossing a border can dramatically change the rules. Jack examines what can make these agreements hold up or fall apart, from financial disclosure and independent counsel to the hidden ERISA trap that can derail even a carefully drafted plan. A prenup isn't planning for divorce. It's insurance against letting geography, circumstance, and someone else's rules decide your financial future.

Free 10 Day Couples Challenge Try Relationship Academy Why do couples so often fall into standoffs where one partner needs emotional closeness to feel physical desire, while the other needs physical touch to feel emotionally open? In this episode, Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) trainer and author George Faller joins us to unpack how stress, polyvagal state shifts, and distinct attachment cycles govern relational dynamics. By learning to slow down protective reactions, partners can reframe relational friction into a doorway for true emotional and physical intimacy. Main Talking Points: Navigating High-Stress Trauma Polyvagal Brain States Intersecting Attachment Cycles Decoupling Relational Brakes The Crisscross Pattern Externalizing Negative Cycles Intimacy is not about eliminating relational friction, but about creating enough safety to reveal the deeper longings hidden beneath protective defenses. When partners slow down and face these cycles together, the body and heart naturally return to connection.

Have you ever found yourself having the exact same argument over and over again? One day it's about money, the next it's about chores, parenting, sex, or deployment communication. But even though the topic changes, the emotional pattern stays the same—with the exact same frustrations and the exact same painful ending. If you've ever wondered why solving the topic never seems to fix the issue, please know that you are not alone and you are not broken. The truth is, the content often isn't the real problem. Most couples aren't having dozens of different fights; they're having the same fight over and over, just wearing different clothes. In this episode of the Communicate & Connect Podcast, Dr. Elizabeth Polinsky breaks down the hidden patterns beneath conflict—like pursue-withdraw and criticize-defend—and explains why trying harder inside a pattern often makes the spiral worse. >>> Read the show notes for this episode here.   Are you having the same conversation over and over? Many couples assume they have a communication problem when they're actually stuck in a relationship pattern that keeps creating the same conflict. >>> Take the free Relationship Pattern Assessment to identify the pattern that may be keeping you disconnected and learn what to focus on next.
