"Conflict isn't inherently bad. In fact, it can be a sign that you and your partner are invested in the relationship."
"Healthy conflict allows for both people to feel heard and understood, even when they don't agree."
"It's not about avoiding conflict, but about approaching it with respect, empathy, and an openness to understand."
