You may find you and your partner fighting about the
dishwasher, kids, money or sex. But what are you really fighting about? That's
what experts answer on this episode as they highlight the emotional cycle,
the sexual cycle and the impact of both. Couples are really set up to miss each
other and argue. It's an unfair reality that so many of us know. Some of us
need verbal communication and a strong emotional connection to feel close and
others need physical touch to create safety and connection. And when these
things conflict we experience misattunement. Join our hosts today as they talk
through a role play conversation highlighting this dilemma and the best ways to
repair it. The ability to repair is what makes couples great and able to handle
whatever conflict is thrown their way. Next time you find yourself arguing over
the dishes, maybe it's time to explore the cycles and if they are colliding.
