Why Do We Keep Having the Same Fight?
Manage episode 465066560 series 2870761
Did you know that most arguments in relationships aren’t really about what they seem? That fight about the trash? The dishes? Being late? It’s rarely about the actual issue—it’s about something deeper. Feeling unheard. Feeling unappreciated. Feeling disconnected.
In this Language of Love Session, we continue to follow Brian and Stacey as they navigate the challenges of trust, intimacy, and emotional connection. Brian feels like he’s doing everything right—planning dates, showing affection, making an effort—yet the intimacy still isn’t there. Stacey, meanwhile, struggles with past trauma and the weight of expectation, making it hard for her to fully engage. We confront the hidden emotions and unspoken fears that keep them stuck in the same frustrating cycle.
What’s inside this episode?
- How past traumas influence trust and intimacy in relationships
- Why taking sex off the table can help rebuild emotional and physical connection
- The importance of non-sexual touch in fostering intimacy and trust
- How to navigate the "Drama Triangle" (victim, villain, hero) in conflicts
- Practical strategies for shifting out of conflict and into connection
- The role of appreciation and physical affection in healing relationships
- How to create a culture of safety and understanding in your partnership
Don't forget—love is a journey best taken together. Whether you're healing from past traumas, deepening intimacy, or improving communication, every step forward is one you don’t have to take alone. Explore powerful tools like EMDR and the Drama Triangle for trauma recovery, or dive into transformative resources like Conscious Loving by Gay and Katie Hendricks. Want to go even deeper? Read my book Quantum Love. You can even check out my Quantum Sex Course.
