Episode How To Fight Well
Most people never consider that fighting can be a useful and healthy practice for our relationships — and that “fighting well” is a skill that can be learned. We resist conflict until it builds up and we reach a breaking point, and then BAM! Our trauma runs the show and we risk re-traumatizing ourselves and others.
In this episode, Joe and Brett talk about how to fight well. They explore how:
• Healthy fighting can actually lead to healing, growth, and deeper connection
• The importance of speaking your truth
• What to NOT do during fights
• The empowerment of a good fight
• When to walk away (and how)
• When a fight is no longer worth fighting
