Join me and Rachael through our shared experiences and as we dived deep into sharing all things related to fostering better communications with your partner, how to have difficult conversations by starting small and how to maintain healthy boundaries for a healthier, happy relationship this new year.\xa0
Here are the takeaways:\xa0
- The next time you hug, make it good and whole by letting it go least 20 seconds long because that\u2019s when feel-good oxytocin gets released\xa0
- Practise listening to understand instead of listening to respond
- Always make space for conversations that aims to understand each other\xa0
- Approach with curiosity instead of judgement\xa0
- When a dialogue occurs, we create the chance to learn new information about that person and a chance to connect\xa0
- Setting healthy boundaries is a sign of love\xa0
- Lead by example\xa0
- Start small; keep these conversations in bite sizes
