The Art of Arguing: Using Disagreements ...

Jim Kwik, Your Brain Coach, Founder www.KwikLearning.com
About this episode

Can the biggest conflicts in your relationship actually bring you closer and create deeper intimacy?

Happy couples fight. But there is a difference between healthy conflict and unhealthy fighting. One leads to stronger marriages and relationships while the other ends in heartbreak, frustration, and loneliness. But even more importantly, how you fight can predict the future of your relationship.

I’m excited to welcome our guests John and Julie Gottman to the show today. The Gottman’s are world experts on relationships with over fifty years of research and clinical experience. Together, they founded The Gottman Institute and have written multiple books, including their latest, Fight Right: How Successful Couples Turn Conflict Into Connection.

Conflict between two people is inevitable. But the first three minutes of that fight can lead to understanding or disaster. Listen in as the Gottman’s share the four horseman behaviors that ruin marriages and show you to use the Bagel Method to compromise and connect for a happier, healthier partnership.
