    Subscriber Series: How to Build Diplomacy in Your Marriage Conflict

    Subscriber Series: How to Build Diplomacy in Your Marriage Conflict

    It’s so easy to try to get your own way in an argument and even to feel like this is the end goal. Instead of just getting your own way, however, healthy couples learn to look with true diplomacy to figure out what fostering true compromise looks like when you both win, at least a bit. This will not come with a brilliant argumentation case any more than it will come by ignoring an issue and being passive-aggressive. Instead, really great conflict repair will instead come with healthy boundaries, compassion, and diplomacy, and as we finish this series, we address the latter. Learn how to be healthily diplomatic in your marriage right here!

    Bringing Minimalism to Your Marriage w/Diane Boden, The Minimalist Mom, Type 7 (7-5 Pairing)

    Bringing Minimalism to Your Marriage w/Diane Boden, The Minimalist Mom, Type 7 (7-5 Pairing)

    How do you go from busy and overloaded to present in marriage and family, especially when we know that "turning towards" behaviors are what make relationships succeed or fail long-term, especially when we differ SO much after a long span of time together in marriage? As we strive to connect in a truly frenetic world when we have so much to do along with all of these differences, today Christa is sharing a meaningful and uplifting conversation with you and top podcast expert on the massively successful The Minimalist Mom Podcast and Instagram influencer, Diane Boden, Enneagram 7 (7-5) pairing on the pod! We analyze the 5-7 pairing deeply and then Diane to help us with the gift of her pairing as she gives realistic and life-giving tips for minimalism and experiences so you can truly simplify in an overly complex world!

    Specific convos here are:
    Diane's 5-7 pairing and what she's learning in her second decade of marriage about becoming less scattered with friendships
    Setting systems into place to help everyone in the family, not just one person
    Starting in spaces with less sentimental items
    Talking with your spouse for 5 min each week to get settled into the rhythms
    Finding what you're both on board with in terms of minimalism and getting focused and organized
    Find more free mental and physical space with your systems
    How to work with the busy chaos and say no more
    How to find the jomo (joy of missing out!)
