Summary

We’ve all been in conflict before, but have you ever thought about how your conflict style affects the outcome? And how that style might shift over time and in various situations? This week, Ali & Erica dive into five conflict styles: Competing, Accommodating, Avoiding, Collaborating, and Compromising. Is any one better than the others? Or are some styles more effective than we might think depending on the scenario? We also dive into our own conflict styles and how we’ve experienced them in past relationships. Let us know what parts of this discussion you’d like us to dive into further!

In Updates, Erica has a series of frustrating exchanges with the NYE guy but looks forward to returning home for a date. Ali recounts her gift exchange with Skyline as they prepare to leave for Mexico.

Timestamps: Topic talk begins at around minute 25.
