The Relational Couple

Conflict avoidance and pleasing are temporary solutions to long-term issues.

They only prolong suffering and push the relationship to a long slow death.

Learn how to communicate more effectively so you don’t need to use avoidance or pleasing to get by in your relationship.

Here's a summary of the 10 Day Gratitude and Appreciation Challenge.

You may notice that most of the prompts don't include "thanking" them for something.

Expressing your gratitude and appreciation can come in many variations. Don't limit your opportunities by thinking expressing gratitude or appreciation means you have to thank them.

Chances are your partner will walk away feeling appreciated when you express positive qualities you see in them or positive memories you have.

When the positive is expressed, we feel seen, heard, and valued.

So make it your goal to express more positive statements to your partner. Unprompted by me.
