ERP 339: How Relationships Dissolve & What You Can Do About it — An Interview With Susan Scott

Keeping your emotions at bay to maintain the harmony in your relationship may seem like a better option than engaging in a conversation that might result in an argument. On the other hand, suppressing your feelings can eventually do serious damage to your relationship. When you spend a lot of time with someone, you may begin to believe that you know everything about them. Starting a conversation may feel terrifying because you anticipate your partner's response and how the conversation will go, but you may or may not be right. In this episode, Susan Scott discusses the causes of relationship plateaus, common misconceptions about love, the effects of poor communication or lack thereof, and the characteristics of a fierce conversation. You'd be surprised at how refreshing that would be if you knew how to approach these conversations in a courageous, loving, and skillful way. Susan Scott is a bestselling author and leadership development architect who has enabled top executives worldwide to engage in vibrant dialogue with one another, with their employees, and with their customers for two decades. In her latest book, "Fierce Love – Creating a Love that Lasts, One Conversation at a Time," Susan Scott guides couples through eight must-have conversations to create a fierce love that stands the test of time and grows stronger over the years. Check out the transcript of this episode on Dr. Jessica Higgin's website. In this episode 6:19 Gradually and then suddenly: Understanding how lack of communication can ruin a relationship. 16:53 Post-romance stage: Recognizing the causes of a relationship plateau. 23:07 What a fierce conversation looks like. 33:21 Susan's own description of what she considers to be a safe place for meaningful conversations. 40:00 Myths about love that can destroy you and your relationship.

ERP 335: Understanding How Fear Is Expressed During Conflict — An Interview With Tami Kiekhaefer

There is no such thing as a perfect relationship. No matter how great your relationship with your partner is, conflicts are inevitable, and that is not always a bad thing. Depending on how well you manage them, they can either weaken or strengthen your relationship. Most people don't even realize that they are responding to conflicts out of fear. When a problem arises, they automatically arm up to protect themselves, which leaves it unresolved and eventually breeds resentment. In this episode, Tami Kiekhaefer discusses how fear manifests itself in conflict situations through physical cues and an illustration. Most importantly, she explains how you can apply this knowledge to resolve conflicts in a constructive manner. Tamara Kiekhaefer, LCSW, has operated her psychotherapy practice since 2002. She provides individual, family, and couple therapy around anxiety, depression, domestic violence, trauma, relationships, and empowerment. Tami is a certified yoga instructor and weaves concepts of holistic therapy into her clinical work. Her first book provides hands-on tools required to work through the past, stabilize the present, and prepare for a loving relationship. Check out the transcript of this episode on Dr. Jessica Higgin's website. In this episode 4:56 How her divorce equipped Tami help other people even more. 9:40 How she confronted the criticism about her failed relationship while working as a couple's therapist. 14:34 How fear manifest itself during conflict. 18:29 Physical signs of fear. 24:38 The roots of anxiety. 29:00 The Cone of Fear—a visual representation of the fear of rejection and fear of abandonment. 38:58 How to overcome the fear of rejection and abandonment. 42:33 An overview of her book, Preparing for the Jungle: Avoiding Snakes and Pitfalls on the Path to Healthy Love. 46:56 Learn more about the services she is offering.

Every one of us struggles with something that impacts our relationships. We were raised to believe that whatever we struggle with—be it self-worth, emotions, or body image—is a flaw.

In this episode, Dr. Jennifer Gunsaullus discusses how to recognize our thoughts, beliefs, and emotions as well as how to practice being mindful of them. She urges everyone to venture a little further outside of their comfort zones and develop their mental and emotional fortitude so they can begin to make decisions they never had before. Jennifer Gunsaullus, PhD, is a sociologist, international intimacy speaker, and relationship and communication coach, and the author of From Madness to Mindfulness: Reinventing Sex for Women.

ERP 333: How To Weather A Storm (like an illness) Together In Relationship — An Interview Dr. George and Vanessa Naum

Marriage entails a commitment to support one another through both good and bad times. The traditional vow goes along the lines of, "For better or for worse, in sickness and in health, until death do us part," which means the couple stays together no matter what. The truth is that most couples hope for a bright future and a long-lasting romantic relationship, but they don't expect or prepare to go through the worse and sickness parts. In reality, it's not always convenient and easy. The hormones and attraction wear off, and other problems arise. In this episode, Dr. George and Vanessa Naum sit down and talk about some significant topics that every couple should consider before getting married; how health issues can affect the relationship; and some doable steps couples can take to strengthen their relationship. Best Friends Again is a physician marriage coaching company helping physicians and healthcare professionals reignite their marriage through a customized approach based on the unique needs of physician and healthcare professional families.

They believe that you really can have it all. Check out the transcript of this episode on Dr. Jessica Higgin's website.

ERP 331: How To Move Out Of Power Struggles Into Working Together In Relationship — An Interview With Nate and Kaley Klemp

It is incredible and worth celebrating that this generation is actually the first in all of human history to make an attempt to establish equality in marriage. However, we simply lacked the skills necessary to successfully navigate the terrain of long-lasting intimacy, which led to fights over fairness. While the traditional marriage was wildly unfair, it is worth recognizing that couples were more in partnership, working toward a shared goal. In this episode, Nate and Kaley Klemp share their insights on various marriage structures and introduce the 80/80 model, a brand-new marriage framework designed to support radical generosity in relationships. Check out the transcript of this episode on Dr. Jessica Higgin's website. In this episode 3:49 Nate and Kaley's conflict over fairness and the larger sociological point of our generation to establish equality in marriage. 6:22 Recognizing the value of the conventional marriage structure. 11:19 How your mindset and expectations greatly affect our decision-making or how we perceive the other. 14:00 The three components of mindset. 18:35 The 50/50 model and why it is unsustainable. 29:05 How the 80/80 model was developed and how it changed Nate and Kaley's marriage. 37:51 Easing into radical generosity while minimizing discomfort.
