What if the biggest problem in your high-conflict relationship isn't your ex—it's that you keep handing them your power?

In this conversation, Amy Armstrong breaks down why conflict is a skill deficit, not a character flaw, and how focusing on what you're willing to do (instead of what the other person is doing wrong) changes everything.

In this episode, we cover:

→ The critical difference between boundaries and requests (and why most people are just begging for change)

→ Why it only takes ONE person to end a conflict—and how to be that person without becoming a doormat

→ The uncomfortable truth about drama addiction and stress hormones (are you actually attached to the chaos?)

→ How to stop reading those texts that ruin your entire day (and why you keep opening them anyway)

→ The "of course" method for instant self-compassion when you're triggered

→ Why saying "no" keeps you stuck in resentment—and what to focus on instead

This episode is for you if:

• You're co-parenting with someone who pushes every button you have

• You feel like you're constantly defending yourself and still losing

• You're exhausted from trying to change someone who refuses to change

• You want your power back but don't know where to start

• You're ready to stop being a victim to someone else's bad behavior

Amy's approach: Practical, no-BS skills for handling high-conflict relationships without losing yourself in the process.
