How Healthy Couples Fight (3 Shifts You Need to Make)
7/24/202635 min
Healthy relationships aren't defined by the absence of conflict… they're shaped by how couples move through it together. In this episode, Jay explores why even the strongest relationships face disagreements, what recurring arguments are really trying to tell you, and how understanding the emotional needs beneath the surface can change the way you communicate. Learn how to communicate with empathy, regulate your emotions, repair after difficult moments, and stop fighting to win so you can start growing stronger together.
With Love and Gratitude,
Jay Shetty
