439-How to Influence During Disagreement (without Disconnect)

Listening is a superpower. It makes people feel heard and safe and brings down defenses. It lets them know they are cared for. In today's society, it can be hard to have a conversation without wanting to defend a point in disagreement or wanting to make sure your opinion is heard, as well. It's even worse when this seeps into your marriage. Today we are going to be talking about how to have a productive disagreement without losing connection, how to stay on the same team (even when you think your spouse is totally wrong!), and how to be a curious and compassionate listener, even in the midst of disagreement. We hope this episode blesses you and leads to many wonderful, deep conversations and a deeper understanding and connection with your spouse.

PPS - If you're thinking this listening stuff is great for someone else, but not you and your spouse- they never listen, they don't want to share, they are so closed off... we would love to talk to you and see if we can help. https://delightyourmarriage.com/cc PPPS - Here is a quote from a recent graduate: "My biggest struggle coming into the program was hard heartedness, unforgiveness and resentment... It's required me to be more reflective.  It has shown me the power of positive habits that build into an attitude of gratitude. I am learning to see my wife in a kinder light.  I am spending more time connecting with my kids and have been more patient, kind & gentle with them.  I am becoming a better friend, messaging and calling friends more, and making time for them."
