Description

We all have sore subjects in our marriages and topics where one partner gets defensive. Defensiveness is so common in any type of betrayal.

In this episode, I share 3 tools you can use right now to get past the defensiveness in these conversations.

If every single conversation feels difficult and leads to defensiveness, you are keeping your marriage in survival mode.

I want you to be able to have important conversations with your partner, without the defensiveness, so you can get through the tough stuff and start to rebuild the connection and intimacy.
