Why Doesn’t My Partner Follow Through?

Why do we say yes when we don’t mean it? Do we know our own answers? Can we be vulnerable and can we allow our partner to be vulnerable? This episode is chock-full of skills: not saying yes when we mean no, making direct requests, not demanding, speaking truth, using psychological boundaries and creating your own boundary images, differentiating between agenda, strategy and needs, allowing for a No. Don’t be fooled, this is not a fully serious episode, in spite of all of those skills. Join us for tons of giggles too.
