012: How to Effectively Communicate With Your Partner

We're so excited for this episode. Today we're talking all about love languages. For those of you that are not familiar this is based on the book The Five Love Languages by Gary Chapman.

If you don't know your love language you can go to 5lovelanguages.com/profile and take the quiz. This quiz will help you identify what your primary love languages are so that you can start to speak them and hear them effectively.

The 5 Love Languages are
1. Words of affirmation
2. Quality time
3. Receiving gifts
4. Acts of service
5. Quality time

This week we take a look at each of the languages. We talk about ways to incorporate each of these into your life if it's something your partner needs. On the flip side, we talk about how to recognize if your partner is speaking one of these languages that you are not "hearing".

Join us to take a closer look at ways to improve the relationship you have with your partner. If you are interested in more of Gary's work, he has several books published on love languages. These books are designed for the different types of relationships that may be in your life.
