    Airing of the Grievances

    No... this isn't about the Festivus episode of Seinfeld. This episode is about an article in The Atlantic that shared how some couples only hash out their disagreements at scheduled quarterly or even yearly meetings where they sit down for just the purpose of resolving conflicts. Could you as a couple put off arguing over why the trash didn't get taken out for a year? What would waiting change? What are the situations where this kind of arrangement might work and what are the situations where it won't. Laugh along with Randy and Beverly as they share why their relationship couldn't do it this way but how there are things to learn from the idea of a scheduled airing of the grievances. #HeartVersusHead #TheAtlantic #Seinfeld #AiringOfTheGrievances #couples goals Send us Fan Mail Heart Versus Head is a podcast about relationship styles and how those relationship styles influence communication in the most important relationships.

    Recycling Past Relationships

    Why do Hearts seem to always be going back... back to the bad relationship... back to the person from a few years ago... or just back into the messy breakup? And why do Heads always seem to be so angry on the way out? As you'll learn in this episode, it's how they are each protecting themselves. Are you a recycler? Do you cling to the hope that the love you've felt in the past was as good as it can get? Or do you jump back in to fix what might be wrong with you? Listen as Randy and Beverly help you see that there is no right or wrong ... just Heart and Head and a lot of work to do. #HeartVersusHead #recyclingRelationships #youagain #unbreakingup  Send us Fan Mail Heart Versus Head is a podcast about relationship styles and how those relationship styles influence communication in the most important relationships.

    Finding Your Way Home From Quiet Quitting

    Have you ever felt like giving up on your relationship without actually leaving the relationship? Do you have those days where you think, "why try if my partner won't try?" In this episode, Randy and Beverly talk about the trend of "quiet quitting" in marriage. Oprah Winfrey brought it up in her podcast recently and her guests focused on the growing number of (mostly) women in their 40s who stay in a marriage but become emotionally detached from their partner. Instead of giving up, learn how you can both change your perspective and get back to focusing on building an amazing home with your partner - safe, strong and filled with connection.  #HeartVersusHead #QuietQuitting #Oprah #WhyTry #CouplesGoals Send us Fan Mail Heart Versus Head is a podcast about relationship styles and how those relationship styles influence communication in the most important relationships.
