Description

In this episode of Love Isn't Enough, we're diving deep into the final two of Gottman's Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse—contempt and stonewalling—and exploring why these are the most damaging dynamics in relationships. We break down what they look like, why they show up, and how they silently erode connection, intimacy, and trust over time.

 

If you've ever felt dismissed, shut out, belittled, or emotionally abandoned by your partner—or maybe you've done it yourself—this episode will help you recognize these harmful patterns and start shifting toward repair and reconnection.

 

Tune in to learn the antidotes to contempt and stonewalling, and take one step closer to building a relationship that can truly thrive
