Ep 133: The 4 Conversations You Aren't Having (But Need To)
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Are you living with a roommate or a soulmate? In this episode of Married and Connected, we dive deep into the "silent killers" of marriage—the four essential conversations most couples skip until it’s too late.
Drawing from the Gottman Method, Brené Brown’s research on vulnerability, and Dr. Andrea Vitz’s principles of Emotional Sobriety, I’m sharing tangible tools to help you move from "Roommate Syndrome" back to being best friends. We’ll discuss how to handle the "State of the Union," navigate the hidden meaning of money, bridge the intimacy gap, and build a shared vision for your future.
What You’ll Learn:
- How to use a "Softened Start-up" to avoid defensiveness.
- The secret to talking about sex without the shame.
- Why "Money Stories" matter more than your budget.
- Practical ways to take 100% responsibility for your emotional safety.
