Why do smart, self-aware people keep having the same argument with different partners?

On this week’s episode of The Conscious Rising, I sit down with Dr. Aria Campbell-Danesh - a clinical psychologist with over 15 years of experience at the intersection of high performance, mindfulness, and conscious relationships — to explore why old wounds resurface, how disconnection builds in silence, and what it really takes to rebuild intimacy with radical honesty.

He explains:

⬛ The difference between reactivity vs. responsibility (and how to shift in real time)

⬛ Why micro-hurts left unspoken become major blocks in connection

⬛ How to practice relational repair (and why it’s not about doing it alone)

⬛ Why love is unconditional but relationships aren’t - and how agreements create safety

⬛ How identity collapse can trigger growth if you stay honest

⬛ When silence equals disconnection - and how to speak before it’s too late
