It can feel easier to label your partner than to feel powerless. But what if the answer isn’t in blame, but in understanding the cycle? This post offers a new way forward.

Do you wonder how relationships work….what makes them thrive and what makes them struggle? Do you wonder how to make sense of your relationship problems, fix them, and/or prevent them to begin with? If you’re single, would you like to make sense of past relationship problems and learn how to prevent problems in future relationships? Are you interested in understanding the basics of attachment theory? Are you interested in understanding attachment theory on a more nuanced level? Do you have questions about emotional closeness, emotional blocks to closeness, negative communication cycles, what constitutes bad relationship behaviour and how to set healthy, attachment friendly boundaries with healthy assertion? Do you understand relationship concepts but need the words to deliver the message with health? Are you interested in understanding how virtually all relationship problems are rooted in vulnerability problems? Curious about personality disorders (narcissism, BPD) in relationships?

After an argument or fight, struggling couples have a tendency to either push issues under the rug or get stuck in anger (there’s nothing wrong with the anger itself, but it’s not good to stay stuck in it). Healthier couples find ways to use the conflict to grow and get better at working through their differences.

For more info on how to navigate conflict with attachment safety, check out my “negative cycle” highlight or for a deeper dive, grab a copy of my book Secure Love by Julie Menanno. ❤️
