You really want to get along, but somehow you always end up arguing with your significant other.
The reason may not be what you think.
In this week’s episode, Liz Larson and Bill McKenna talk about how hidden shame can quietly run underneath a relationship and make it feel impossible to be wrong, impossible to soften, and impossible to be truly vulnerable.
So even when you love each other, even when you want peace, you may still find yourself defending, shutting down, blaming, reacting, or fighting over and over again.
Not because you’re broken.
Not because the relationship is doomed.
But because there may be a pattern stuck in the nervous system that is driving the conflict behind the scenes.
That is why some relationships feel tense no matter how hard you try, while others feel safe, easy, and accepting. In truly connected relationships, there is room to be human. Room to be imperfect. Room to be loved without bracing for impact.
If you’ve ever wondered why you keep having the same fight in a different form, this episode is for you.
