Esther Perel Instagram – Who doesn’t know the feeling of wanting to be hugged by the very person we sometimes can’t stand to be in the same room with? Instead of turning toward one another, we often find ourselves tending to our wounds alone—and missing the chance to deepen our relationships. I often have to remind my clients that experiencing conflict in their relationship—whether it looks like a silent emotional standoff, a huge blowout fight, or something in between—isn’t necessarily a bad thing. There are plenty of strong yet volatile couples out there. Conflict is often a signal pointing us toward something else: a lack of trust or closeness, a boundary or dynamic that isn’t working, or feelings of anger, disappointment, or hurt. Whatever your situation may be, my new course, “Turning Conflict Into Connection” can help you lean in and find connection with your partner even when you disagree. Inside, I’ll take you through a series of short videos and exercises to teach you what causes conflict, how you can better understand your responses (and your partner’s), and skills and frameworks you can start using right away to find peace in your relationship even when you and your partner disagree. And because it only takes one different choice to change a pattern, you can take this course with or without a partner and still experience all the benefits. You’ll learn new ways to navigate conflict more effectively and gain the relational skills it takes to build more resilient relationships in the long term.
