Summary
When it comes to redesigning our entire marriages, it's all about controlling ourselves and being the change maker, not pointing the fingers. We only can control what we can control, and we need to be focused on ourselves. Learning skills like tactical empathy, using emotional labels, using mirroring, using generative questions, and creating an environment of psychological safety where your wife feels seen, heard, and safe.
Kurt Young is an independent insurance agent. He and his wife are the owners of their own company (Kurt Young Insurance Group) where they help clients with their insurance and financial needs.
After living through a stroke, Kurt has made radical changes in his life and is one of the most active members of the Dad Edge Acceleration Program.
