Summary

Do you avoid conflict like the plague? Is your first reaction in a disagreement to apologize, even if you’re not at fault? Or is your first instinct in a disagreement to go on the offensive?

If you said yes to any of those questions - then this episode is for you!

We are diving deep into how unresolved trauma from our childhood shapes our ability (... or lack thereof) to handle conflict as adults, common conflict patterns in dysfunctional families, misconceptions about conflict and conflict resolution that might be sabotaging your relationships, and the 3 primary conflict response styles (fight, flight, and fawn).
