Are you struggling in a relationship right now? Navigating romantic relationships can be emotionally turbulent, but by recognizing early warning signs and managing physiological signals, you can maintain emotional balance and foster healthier interactions. This is what we explore in this episode of the Darin Olien Show with Neil Strauss. 

Throughout this episode, we share our thoughts on managing emotions in relationships, offering tips for recognizing, controlling, and improving emotional responses, breaking negative thought patterns and relationship patterns, embracing imperfections and using low self-esteem for personal growth, the importance of persistence and self-discipline for a fulfilling life, and so much more.
