Episode 2492:

Dr. Diana Kirschner shares how this nearly ruined her own marriage and reveals a powerful practice, the 10-Minute Miracle Session, that can transform communication and intimacy. By simply listening without judgment or interruption, couples can reconnect, strengthen their bond, and avoid the common pitfalls of misinterpretation and resentment.

Quotes to ponder:

"He doesn’t care about me. Or I am invisible. Or, one of my self-sabotaging, gloom and doom favorites, I am just not attractive anymore. It was always about me."

"Anything that a partner says during the Miracle Session is sacred. Don’t bring it up during an argument."

"If you do want to start doing this exercise with your partner, come to an agreement about how to further address certain subjects that it brings out if you need to."
