This week we chat through another of the Gottman Four Horsemen of Relationships- CONTEMPT. One of the biggest red flags of relationships. đŠ
Disrespect, mockery, sarcasm and name calling are a few of the ways couples might see this play out in their communication- but don't be fooled, contempt can be a subtle and trickly little beast, sneaking into relationships that you'd least expect.
We hope you're challenged, encouraged and uplifted by this raw chat all about Contempt.
We also share a really encouraging listener write-in that we hope brings a smile to your face!
Make sure to check out the Gottman Institute for further information.

This week we dive into the tricky world of INSECURITIES in Relationships đŹ
We're all familiar with that niggling little voice that sits in our heads and makes us doubt ourselves. Insecurities play out in so many ways, but within relationships they can be toxic. The incredible power you can gain from understanding your story and knowing where these insecurities stem from, is so empowering! But if they go unnoticed, ignored or even suppressed, the consequences can be huge.
Join as we dive into 3 Reddit stories, all touching on the topic of Insecurities! We explore the importance of curiosity and the need to continuously learn and grow together.
We even discover new tidbits about each other during this chat!

Today we run through Gary Chapman's "The Five Love Languages". You know the ones: words of affirmation, gifts, acts of service, physical touch and quality time.

Join us as we dive into some reddit stories all about STONEWALLING.
Stonewalling within relationships is one of the Gottman Institute's 4 Horsemen of Relationships, and refers to the 'refusal to communicate or cooperate' in conversation.

We've all heard that phrase- "To assume makes an donkey out of u and me", right? Or something along those lines, anyway đ Why, then, do we so often assume things within our relationships?
Skating along assuming your communicating love to your partner is just not going to cut it! When was the last time you checked in to make sure that what you're giving out is also being received?
Join us for this Chit-Chat through the times we've assumed we've been showing each other love, but have really been missing the mark. We challenge YOU to take an intentional moment this week to check in with your partner and make sure that you're really catering to their love needs.
