    Diacardia S2 E1 - When you need to talk and your partner doesn't

    One partner is "dying" to talk, but the other doesn't want to. Then what? Monica Tanner, certified relationship coach shares game-changing ideas with Dan about the all-too-frequent situation where partners are opposite in that one feels the two need to talk, but the other just doesn't want to go there. How does that partner who wants to explore the challenges in relationship bring the resistant partner to the table? Dan and Monica share relationship research as well as their personal stories to help listeners find usable strategies to work on their relationships. Diacardia is the podcast that explores the power of good listening and thinking - we could call that dialogue - but also helps listeners develop the art of listening through the heart.
