What You'll Learn
The following topics and concepts are covered through the video lessons, resources, and additional reading:
Conflict isn't the problem
Discover why a marriage with no conflict isn't the healthy one, and why how you fight matters far more than whether you fight at all.
Why you fight the way you do
Understand the fight-or-flight response behind your worst arguments, and what happens when two fighters, two fleers, or a fighter and a fleer collide.
Five surprising benefits of conflict
Learn how disagreement, handled well, helps you understand your spouse and yourself, grow in maturity, build teamwork, and surface old wounds that need healing.
Eight boundaries for a fair fight
Master eight practical rules, like equal time, no "always" or "never," and one issue at a time, that keep an argument from going off the rails.
What to say when you're stuck
Get specific phrasing and four questions to ask when a conflict won't resolve, so you can step back, regroup, and return without doing damage.
And More...
You'll also follow the real story of Dave and Carolyn, learn the 15-minute rule, and see how conflict done well can draw the two of you closer.
This Course Is For You If:
You keep having the same argument over and over without ever resolving it
Each round leaves a little more unsaid, and the distance between you quietly grows.
One of you pushes to hash it out while the other shuts down and walks away
So the argument never really lands anywhere, and you both end up feeling unheard.
You've started to believe all this fighting means a broken marriage
What's missing isn't more love or willpower, but a few practical skills for fighting well.
