Unlock the secrets to effective communication with your partner as we sit down with Sherry Timko, an expert couple's relationship coach. Misunderstandings could be at the root of many of your arguments, but what if simple changes in the way you communicate could resolve them? Learn how to articulate your thoughts clearly and how over-communicating can foster greater understanding.
Ever wondered why your partner seems to hear something completely different from what you said? We dissect communication into four key stages: what you think, what you say, what your partner hears, and how they interpret it. Cheri discusses the complexities introduced by cultural backgrounds, personality traits, and personal experiences. By anticipating and recognizing these barriers, you can develop strategies to prevent conflicts and build healthier communication habits, like choosing the right moments to talk and understanding your partner's emotional triggers.
Discover how the principles from professional communication can be seamlessly integrated into your personal life. Inspired by James Clear's "Atomic Habits," we delve into practices like summarizing conversations for clarity and setting clear intentions. Cheri also reveals the advantages of her communication course, emphasizing that improved interactions lead to better problem-solving and relationship security.
