Are You Caught in a Power Struggle with Your Partner?

Happy fall Sunday!

Let’s bust a big myth today.

Myth: couples fight for power...

Truth: couples fight because they feel insecure about how their partner is treating them and push to see whether their partner really cares.

The deeper feelings underneath the fighting are covered up by the anger and resentment, or worse, contempt and disgust.

If you try to stop the “power struggle” by superficial means such as negotiating, making compromises, making a plan, or by just giving in, your relationship will continue to deteriorate.

Unfortunately, most couples counseling focuses on the surface problem of the power struggle. That is why it doesn’t work!

You’re also not going to be able to remember how to “communicate effectively” when the underlying feelings hijack your nervous system when you’re upset...

You have to address the deeper issues: the how, why and where you get stuck, and actually get to the root of the problem.

You have to have the right guidance, strategy, and accountability. We all have blind spots that can prevent connection. Don’t wait til it’s too late to figure out what yours are!

The good news is that it only takes one of you to get out of the dead end power struggle by taking charge of creating a secure, resilient and loving connection!

When you do your own connection work, you transform your entire relationship! You actually thrive everywhere in life when you’re emotionally empowered.

Book a call me if this is what YOU want and WHO you to be.

xxoo,
Heather
