The pursuer-withdrawer dynamic that can be seen at times during conflict is a way you and your partner are trying to get your needs met. If you find yourself in this pattern just know you are not the only one as many people learn to respond to conflict/disconnect by pursuing.

Let me know below which behavior resonated with you?

If you tend to not share your experience for fear your partner will not show up the way you need. I get it! Sometimes you might feel that not sharing is the better route because then there will be nothing wrong or you won’t have to feel the feelings that come up.

Unfortunately, this is keeping you stuck in your cycle and there is a better way to communicate with your partner.

If you want to learn how to communicate with your partner in a more effective way and regulate your emotions then sign up for my upcoming workshop in Syracuse, NY!

July 26th 6-9PM
July 27th 9-5

Are you ready to learn how to communicate for closeness and create a stronger foundation in your relationship? If so, comment COMMUNICATION and I’ll DM you the link to register!

I meant to post this yesterday as this is probably the only picture I have with the twin towers in the back ground. I was on an 8th grade field trip. I took yesterday as a day to reflect and just be. We will never forget the day that shaped so many of our lives. Many of us know exactly what we were doing that morning. I was getting ready for class and by chance turned on the radio. It’s surreal at times. Remembering those whose lost and those who came together during a horrific time.

I hope you took sometime to reflect and take care of yourself in the way you needed.
