78. Conflict, Differences, and Do the Little Things Matter? with Carrie Cohen

Coming up on this episode of Flirtations, we’re talking about conflict, differences, and do the little things matter!

With our guest, psychotherapist and marriage coach Carrie Cohen, we get going right away with the question, why do opposites attract? How can we make our differences work for us in dating and relationships?

Carrie has a great breakdown of the anxious/avoidant dynamic here I think you’ll find really interesting!

We’ll also talk about how different approaches to conflict—like when one person wants to resolve things right away, and the other needs time to process—can create tension but also offer opportunities for growth.

Communication is a big theme in this episode—whether it’s figuring out how to ask for more when one person is ready to move forward and the other isn’t, or learning how to navigate conflict without always needing to be right.

And of course, we’ll discuss whether the little things in dating actually matter and how they play a role in creating a lasting connection.

From navigating the honeymoon phase to building a strong foundation for the long term, we’re exploring the differences that come up in dating and how they can ultimately strengthen or challenge a connection.

Alright flirties, let’s meet Carrie!
