020- Agree to Disagree: How "Being Right" Is Ruining Your Relationships
Jan 02, 2024 Episode 20
Samantha Charles

Host Sam and co-host Anthony talk about wanting to be right in a relationship. Typically, when feelings are hurt, people in relationships want their voice to be heard and end up making sure their partner knows it. But, what does it look like for couples to get to a point where they are heard without needing to "prove" that what happened in their mind was absolutely right? 

In this episode, you'll learn tangible ways to engage in relationship disagreements that don't leave either of you having to feel "right"... and everyone gets to be seen and heard. This relationship-changing tool will keep you happier, healthier, and having more fun. And it's not limited to couples; you can use this communication tool with anyone: friends, bosses, family, you name it. In the end, you get to share what happened from your perspective, they get to share what happened from theirs, and everyone gets to be "right".
