#129 - Removing Negotiation From Marriage
Some say "life is a series of negotiations," so why shouldn’t marriage be the same way?
In this episode we’ll discuss how negotiations are not only tedious but also dangerous to your relationship with your spouse. Then, we’ll also suggest an alternate approach.
Talk About This:
Discuss your tendencies to turn challenges into negotiations. Does this happen often? Sometimes? Rarely?
When are you most likely to negotiate instead of white boarding your challenges as a couple?
What are reminders/key words you can use with your spouse to make sure the next decision is handled with a "team" approach?
What potential decisions are in your future where you might be tempted to negotiate?
