Is dysregulation causing conflict in your marriage, or is your marriage causing you to feel dysregulated? Or does it feel like both are true?
When we get married, we don’t just marry a person. The truth is that we also marry their history, their habits, their traumas, and their nervous system. And this can cause a lot of conflict.
My guest today is Dr. Wyatt Fisher, a licensed psychologist specializing in couples therapy who’s been married for over 20 years and raised 4 children.
We touch on how we can resolve resentments despite the chaos of motherhood and how leaning on our spouse for shared decision making can help create intimacy.
3 things you’ll learn in this episode:
- Why conflict is normal and important in relationships
- Dr. Fisher’s brilliant Diamond Approach to address conflict
- What a “love bucket” is and how you can fill your partners
