Imagine this: you’re in an argument with your spouse or significant other.
You’re steaming with rage… while your partner appears to be completely cool, calm, and collected.
If you’re anything like me… that would make me even more upset.
Why don’t they feel the same emotions that I do? Why isn’t this upsetting them as much as it’s hurt me?
Well, remember that age-old expression: don’t judge a book by its cover?
While it may be difficult, intense moments like this, it’s crucial to peel back the layers to be able to—literally and figuratively—peer inside how your partner may be actually feeling.
My guest today is Liz Earnshaw who is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapy & Certified Gottman Therapist. For over a decade, Liz has supported individuals and couples in developing happier and healthier relationships.
Elizabeth runs A Better Life Therapy, a therapy practice in Philadelphia, focused on building healthy relationships as well as Love Lessons 365, her online membership program, which encourages developing healthy skills to love.
Whether you’re looking for a better relationship with yourself or your partner or if you feel there’s been a huge communication breakdown in your relationship, this episode is for you.
