The #1 Reason Why Relationships Don't Last
Show Notes

We've all heard that communication is key to all relationships. More precisely it takes effective communication, and one without any competition. 

Psychologist, author, and speaker Dr. Abby Medcalf shares interesting insight on the number one problem that's undermining communication in relationships, which she says is how we keep score with our partner that creates an unhealthy competitive mindset. This mindset creates the need to "win" vs. seeing the relationship as a collaboration and team. In her 30+ years of experience, she's discovered that our way of keeping score with our partner is the number one reason why relationships fail. 
 
Listen to the full episode to understand why we may find ourselves doing this in our relationships, even if we're not aware of it. You'll discover the fascinating reason why we are wired from a biological prespective to want to compete. And, you'll learn how to shift your perspective to forge a deeper connection in your relationship and be happier and more fulfilled, even if your partner isn't doing a thing! Yes, that's right.
