Research by Dr. John Gottman and his team has consistently found that couples who...
- Criticise, eg, "You're always choosing those kids over me!" or "Nothing I do is ever good enough for you!"
or
- Become defensive, eg, "Well of course I choose the kids over you, they're KIDS for God's sake!" or "What do you mean nothing you do is ever good enough for me?! You never DO anything for me!"
...are more likely than not, headed straight to separation.
Stepfamily couples are especially prone to relationship breakdown, making it even more important that communication is practiced skillfully, respectfully, and empathetically.
There is no greater gift than showing your partner that you see them, and hear them, and understand their perspective, even when (especially when) you see things differently.
This workshop will show you exactly how to do that.
