Break Free from the Critical-Defensive Pattern - Interview with Dr. Jessica Higgins
All you want to do is get your partner to help.
To make a LITTLE effort.
To CARE about your needs.
But every time you try to talk to him about it, he shuts down. He fobs you off.
He acts like you’re nagging him.
Look, a relationship is a partnership.
It’s supposed to be 50-50. You’re not supposed to do EVERYTHING.
How do you get him to listen?
Dr. Jessica Higgins has been working with couples stuck in this?critical-defensive pattern?for over 20 years.
Her secret is reframing requests so that they’re positive and from the heart.
You’ll learn how a few simple language changes can inspire him to want to help you.
You’ll learn why you can’t get through to him when you make it about him.
And you’ll find out how to?reverse-engineer?your requests so you get to the truth of what you really want and need.
