This is Dr. Lisa Marie Bobby, and you're listening to the love, happiness, and success

podcast.

So today, we're going to talk about a very important concept when it comes to relationships,

but one that is not well understood by many people, and that is emotional flooding and

what it does to us.

And I tell you what, when I have worked with couples in counseling who really get what emotional

flooding is and the impact that can have on communication, so many things change for them.

This is a very important thing to understand.

And that is what we're doing on today's episode of the podcast. And I am so pleased to be talking today with my colleague

Lisa Jordan. Lisa is a couples counselor on our team who has a lot of training in this area.

She has a ton of expertise in helping

couples identify different areas of communication that are problematic and improving them,

and in particular, around emotional flooding. So I'm so excited to talk with her about this today and to get her to share

her great advice with you. So Lisa, thank you. Oh, thank you so much for inviting me. It's a

pleasure to be here. Yeah. Well, I really wanted to talk with you about this because lately I have

been doing episodes on like these sort of I almost think of

them as like hidden rocks or obstacles. Have you ever had that experience like you're you're sort of

in a in a stream or something and there's like this stone that you don't see and that's the one that

you like slip on or that you bump your shin on and there are these these things that happen

in relationships that are kind of like that there are these things that like you don't see coming

and i think a lot of people don't understand in the moment what is happening and the major

significance of these things.
