Q&A From Our Marriage WebClass: Navigati...

Aaron & Jocelyn Freeman
About this episode

Last week was our LIVE Marriage Webclass on effective communication, de-escalating conflicts, and repairing after an argument. If you missed registering for that FREE event, you can still access the replay link here. There was so much that we covered that we did not have time to answer any of the questions pertaining to the Before, During, and After skills that we taught. 

So on today’s episode we will cover the 3 most common questions we received at the end of the class, so that everyone that was on can get those answers. If you did not watch, you can use the link to still watch, even if you did not, these are very common questions that will be very meaningful for you to hear. These answers will be very practical so that you can use them in your own life immediately. These are the questions you will hear answers to: 

✅ What can I do? How do I handle when my partner is defensive/not receptive despite the timing of the conversation. 

✅ How do you communicate when expressed needs go unmet? What to do if/when agreements are broken?

✅ What do we do when our partner usually doesn't allow us to take a timeout from a conflict?

 

Relationship Resources: 

➡️ As you listen, make sure you watch the REPLAY of our Live + Free Marriage WebClass. We only host this ONCE a year, and this link will only be available for one more week. 

➡️ Find the links to all the guides and 30-day challenges with our resources page here. https://www.meetthefreemans.com/links
