Dr. Orna Guralnik of Couples Therapy joins Glennon, Abby, and Amanda to reveal what’s really underneath our most maddening relationship fights—and how the differences we keep trying to eliminate might actually be the key to growing closer.
- What we’re really fighting about when we fight about the dishwasher;
- Why we can stop debating whether something is a “want” or a “need”—and what to ask instead;
- How to turn the thing that most frustrates you about your partner into an opportunity for growth;
- Why every relationship is its own “mini political system”; and
- What to do when you feel invisible to your partner.
