08: "I Don't Want to Talk About it."

Love Each Other Better

One of the most inspiring parts about Nonviolent Communication for me is how it helps people connect across differences.

But let’s be honest: there are some differences that are harder to navigate than others, and that's why I'm devoting an entire episode to this one.

Picture this: Partner A is dissatisfied with an aspect of the relationship and attempts to discuss it with Partner B. However, Partner B responds with some variation of “I don’t want to talk about it.”

How do you begin to navigate a difference like this if one partner isn’t willing to talk about it?

Join me as I explore and shed light on this common relationship dynamic where one partner is eager to address issues while the other is hesitant to engage in conversations.

Together we will explore the emotions and needs that might be at play in this challenging situation, without casting blame on either partner.

Whether you're the partner yearning to discuss and resolve issues or the one who doesn't want to talk about it, this episode offers valuable insights and tips to navigate this tricky terrain with empathy and compassion.

Tune in to learn how to connect across differences, including one as challenging as this.
