Do You Try to Change Your Partner? When to Speak Your Mind vs Keep it to Yourself Episode 113

Do You Try to Change Your Partner? When to Speak Your Mind vs Keep it to Yourself Episode 113

How many times have you thought to yourself "should I bring this up to my partner now, or should I just keep it to myself?" It's almost a certainty that you have even more than once because all partners will ask themselves this question at one time or another.

The biggest issue here is that if you bring it up it can cause an argument in which you both end up getting upset and can get into an Argument Hangover. On the other side if you don't say anything it can feel like you have to suppress yourself and ultimately end up feeling resentful. So what is the real answer here when it can feel like a lose-lose situation?

In this episode we will give you 5 steps to take to be able to answer this question as well as empower both of you to become even better partners to each other.
