If you ever feel like a completely different version of yourself when you're under stress—snappy, shut down, or just plain tapped out—you're not alone. Stress doesn't just impact how you feel in your body. It can totally hijack how you show up in your relationships… especially your marriage.In this episode, I'm joined by licensed marriage and family therapist Elizabeth Earnshaw, and we're unpacking how unprocessed stress silently fuels miscommunication, emotional disconnection, resentment, and repeated blow-ups in partnership—even when you love each other deeply.You'll learn how stress physically rewires the way you interact, and why you keep reacting in ways that don't reflect who you really are.We're diving into: ✔️ The two types of stress that show up in marriage—and how to tell the difference ✔️ Why your brain shuts down communication and turns conflict into a battlefield ✔️ How to recognize when you're about to "pop" and how to stop the spiralIf you've ever walked away from a conversation thinking, “Why did I say that?” or “Why do we keep having the same fight?”—this episode is a must-listen.

In this 32-minute episode, I reconnect with Elizabeth Earnshaw, also known as Liz Listens on Instagram, returning to the podcast after five years. Elizabeth, a couples therapist and author of I Want This to Work and Till Stress Do Us Part, shares her personal and professional journey into understanding how invisible external stressors impact relationships.We explore the concept of mental load disparities, varied stress responses, like the venomous king cobra, fearful deer, and playing dead opossum, and how these dynamics play out in partnerships under pressure. Elizabeth breaks down the importance of emotional attunement during life's transitions, the delicate balance between our emotional and wise minds, and how couples can set compassionate boundaries or repair relationship ruptures when they arise.This episode offers invaluable, practical tools and insights into navigating real-world stress together with empathy and collaboration, reminding us that dropping entitlement and accepting life's challenges as a team strengthens our most important bonds.To connect with Elizabeth and learn more: https://elizabethearnshaw.comFollow her on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lizlistens/ To purchase: 'Till Stress Do Us Part - click here To purchase: I Want This To Work" - click here♾ In a fast-paced world like the one we live in, time is one of our most important assets.

Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and author of "Till Stress Do Us Part" Elizabeth Earnshaw @lizlistens deeply understands the unique challenges couples are facing at this time and how our nervous systems and unconscious are running the show. This episode will create so many lightbulb moments for you-- especially regarding how we can upwardly edit the stress in our lives, the ways we lie to ourselves about the stress that we can remove, the unique stress of the Gentle Parenting movement on our marriages, the Legacy dreams that we're unconsciously keeping (causing us disconnection and resentment with our partners and dissatisfaction in our lives), and at the core of this conversation, we can't stress (see what I did there?

We all know that when we're stressed, we're not our best selves. But what happens when this stress threatens to erode our most important relationships, and we feel powerless to change the dynamic? Returning guest Elizabeth Earnshaw joins Dr. Solomon to address this pressing yet common issue. Liz is a licensed family and marriage therapist, Certified Gottman Therapist, AAMFT Approved Supervisor, and founder of A Better Life Therapy. She's known for her popular Instagram account @lizlistens, is the author of I Want This to Work, and has been featured in the New York Times, USA Today, The Washington Post, and more. Her newest book, ‘Til Stress Do Us Part: How to Heal the #1 Issue in Our Relationships, is an empowering guide to stress-proofing your relationship.While we may initially believe it's our relationships that are the cause of our stress, Liz says that it's often the other way around: that “the unprecedented collective stress we all face today is the cause of many relationship challenges couples are experiencing.” In this episodes, you'll hear Liz's deeply empathetic re-frame of this issue. Liz and Dr. Alexandra discuss why our partner often gets the “worst” version of us, how we can understand different types or “buckets” of stressors, and the small but mighty changes we can make that will serve our relationships for the long haul. They also focus on the pressures of parenthood and what makes this moment particularly challenging for parents. Finally, they answer a question from a listener in Idaho named Amber about how to move forward after a rift in a friendship. Relevant Links:Liz's book: 'Til Stress Do Us Part: How to Heal the #1 Issue in Our RelationshipsLiz's website and InstagramParents Under Pressure: The U.S. Surgeon General Advisory on the Mental Health and Well-Being of Parents (2024)Surgeon General Dr. Vivek Murthy's essay in The New York Times Opinion section, August 2024: Surgeon General: Parents Are at Their Wits' End.

They discuss the importance of communication, the evolution of relationships over time, and the necessity of commitment in overcoming challenges. The conversation highlights that while initial feelings of infatuation may fade, a deeper, more mature love can grow through intentional actions and mutual effort.Linkshttps://www.breakfromthegrind.com/Visit our Stores: https://www.redbubble.com/people/bftg/shophttps://www.teepublic.com/stores/lowtreestudiosVideo https://rumble.com/c/c-6686850https://www.youtube.com/@breakfromthegrindhttps://www.youtube.com/@BFTG-Inspiration DetailsAccording to an article in women's health magazine, the number 2 reason that marriages end is due to falling out of love: The article states that “Nearly half of recently divorced respondents cited a lack of love or intimacy as the reason for their separation. Instead of one big betrayal, sometimes just growing apart and losing your romantic feelings can end a marriage. “There's this overarching feeling of distance that happens over time,” states clinical psychologist Elizabeth Cohen, PhD,I believe love is a choice and it is one that you make everyday.What are your thoughts about falling out of love?Why is love a choice?Love is a choice and a decision because your actions determine if it lives on or ends. You are in control of how you act in your relationships and how much you push past conflict and challenges.When you decide to work on communication, trust, intimacy, or emotional security, you're choosing love.What about hormones? If love is driven in part by biology, it may seem like something beyond your control that will continue indefinitely.But, while hormones can sweep you up in the early days of love, Elizabeth Earnshaw, a licensed marriage and family therapist from Philadelphia, explains that lasting love requires conscious decision-making.Hormones may continue making you feel sexually attracted to your partner, for example, but that's different than love.“As your relationship grows, your hormones will no longer be the driver of the feelings,” she says. “This means you need to be the driver of the feelings. You do this by actively choosing to be a loving partner.”

It's Friday. You made it. But before you get into weekend mode, check out these key insights from Elizabeth Earnshaw, author of the new book 'Til Stress Do Us Part: How to Heal the #1 Issue in Our Relationships. She says stress is often at the root of relationship problems, but lucky for us, she has advice for how to cope with it.

What if the problem in your relationship isn't you or your partner but the mountain of stress you're both dealing with? It's a no-brainer to say that too much stress kills intimacy, but what do we really mean when we say “stress”? And what can we actually do about it? In this podcast, Tami Simon speaks with couples therapist and author Elizabeth Earnshaw about her new book, 'Til Stress Do Us Part: How to Heal the #1 Issue in Our Relationships.  Give a listen for a wealth of actionable insights and wise approaches to navigate and manage the stressors in your relationship, including how to comfort a partner under stress; the art of nervous system co-regulation; awareness: the prerequisite for change; learning the signs of dysregulation and how to self-soothe; Gottman's “Four Horsemen”: criticism, defensiveness, stonewalling, and contempt; stress as a physiological cycle; step one: identify your own stressors; the narrative of a gap between who you are and who you want to be; intentional sacrifice; making structural changes that make life less stressful; discernment around what we can and cannot control; and more.

Pick It Apart [2:33] Elizabeth shares why she decided to start her Instagram page and its aim of introducing therapy to people who might not realize what it is or how it can help. [8:05] Elizabeth and Christie discuss how Instagram has changed, along with how (and why) Elizabeth continues to use the platform in ways that align with her values. [18:24] Christie has an AHA moment, realizing that Instagram began to lose its appeal for her when it became something she “should” do. [25:45] Christie asks Elizabeth her thoughts on the pressure put on creators with large platforms to take a stance on every issue in the world. [32:55] Elizabeth explains how taking public stances as a therapist can limit what her clients feel comfortable sharing. [40:51] Elizabeth speaks about taking care of herself and her nervous system responses to negative comments on social media by setting boundaries. [41:33] Christie asks Tomi about how she responds to current events with her audience. Christie Rocha's and Elizabeth Earnshaw's Ah-Ha Moments “For years, I have always enjoyed [Instagram]. I've always liked it. And I think when it shifted to a ‘you should do this' is when it starts feeling like ‘ugh'.” – Christie Rocha “Once it became the obligation to say things a specific way…that obligation took the joy away…I'm only going to [post] now when I feel like it's something I really want to say or I feel confident about it, and it's aligned with what feels good. And I'm really trying not to look at metrics.” – Elizabeth Earnshaw   “[As a therapist], any [public] stance that you take can be read by your client…and that can limit the way they talk to you.” – Elizabeth Earnshaw   “It's much more powerful to talk about what you believe instead of what you don't believe.” – Elizabeth Earnshaw More About Elizabeth Earnshaw Elizabeth Earnshaw is a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist, Certified Gottman Therapist, Clinical Fellow of the AAMFT, and the author of I Want This To Work: An Inclusive Guide to Navigating the Most Difficult Relationship Issues We Face in The Modern Age".

Valentine's Day is just around the corner, so we're bringing you a special episode about money and relationships. Specifically, we're tackling how and why couples argue about money. Couples therapist Elizabeth Earnshaw stops by to give us her insight on how couples can talk through conflicts and achieve their financial milestones together. In Mailbag, we answer questions about separate versus joint financial accounts in a relationship, and how couples can get on the same page about retirement. In Thrive, the best budgeting tips for your 30s.

Today, Liz discusses the impact of stress on our relationships and what we can do to maintain a calm body when others share their stress with us. First, let's define what we mean by stress. Stress is defined as a state of mental or emotional strain or tension resulting from adverse or demanding circumstances. In relationships, stress can manifest in various ways such as communication breakdown, lack of intimacy, and increased conflict. According to the Gottman Institute, "Stress and conflict are inevitable in any relationship, but how couples respond to stress and conflict is what makes the difference between a healthy or unhealthy relationship." This means that it's not necessarily the stress itself that causes problems in a relationship, but rather how we handle it. One way to maintain a calm body when others share their stress with us is to practice mindfulness. Mindfulness is the practice of being present and fully engaged in the current moment. By being mindful, we can avoid getting caught up in our own thoughts and reactions, and instead focus on listening and understanding the other person's perspective. Another tip for maintaining a calm body is to practice self-care. Self-care includes activities that promote physical, emotional, and mental well-being. This can include things like exercise, meditation, or simply taking a break when you need it. In addition, it's important to set boundaries in relationships. This means being honest with yourself and others about what you can and cannot handle. It's important to remember that you are responsible for your own well-being and it's okay to say no to things that are not good for you. Finally, it's important to remember that communication is key in any relationship. According to the Gottman Institute, "The most successful couples are those who communicate openly and effectively with one another." This means being willing to share your thoughts and feelings, and actively listening to the other person's perspective. In conclusion, stress is a natural part of any relationship, but it's important to remember that how we handle it is what makes the difference. By practicing mindfulness, self-care, setting boundaries, and communicating openly, we can maintain a calm body and build stronger, healthier relationships. Good Risings is a mindset.

In this episode of The Good Risings podcast, Liz explore's the psychology behind the process of change. Liz discusses the various stages that individuals go through as they work to change their behaviors and habits, and how understanding these stages can help us better support ourselves and others as we work towards our goals. First, we delve into the concept of precontemplation, or the stage in which an individual is not yet aware that they have a problem or are resistant to change. During this stage, it's important to educate and inform the individual about the benefits of making a change, and to provide resources and support to help them move forward. Next, we discuss the stage of contemplation, in which the individual begins to recognize the need for change but is still uncertain about whether or not to take action. This is a crucial stage in which the individual is weighing the pros and cons of making a change, and it's important to offer encouragement and support as they make this decision. After contemplation comes the stage of preparation, in which the individual starts to make concrete plans for change and takes small steps towards their goal. At this stage, it's important to provide support and accountability to help them stay on track and build momentum. The fourth stage is action, in which the individual actively works to implement the changes they have planned. This can be a challenging stage, and it's important to continue offering support and encouragement to help them stay motivated and on track. Finally, we discuss the stage of maintenance, in which the individual works to maintain the changes they have made and prevent any backsliding. This stage requires ongoing effort and support to help the individual stay committed to their new behaviors and habits. Overall, understanding the stages of change can help us better support ourselves and others as we work towards our goals, and can provide a roadmap for navigating the often challenging process of making positive changes in our lives.
