Ep. 68 - Two Types of Conflict
Let us know how you enjoyed this episode!
Communication can be hard and conflict is not fun. To most of us, it feels like a waste of time, something we'd rather avoid having to experience because it doesn't feel good at all. It's emotionally draining, it's uncomfortable, and then you have to get over that awkward stage between not being ok as a couple and being ok again.
As a mom, it already seems like there isn't enough time in the day for just the normal day to day stuff so we definitely don't have the time to have arguments with our spouse. But when conflict is done the right way, it can actually save you time because it can prevent future arguments from happening. However, in order to do that you've got to know the two types of conflict there are and see which kind you're engaging in majority of the time so you can start fighting the right way - the way that benefits your relationship.
In this week's episode of The Marriage & Motherhood Podcast, I share:
- The two types of conflict
- How to tell which type you regularly experience with your spouse
