257. Listening to defend vs listening to connect

Are you listening to defend yourself with your partner instead of listening to connect? In this episode, I break down why you feel the need to defend yourself when your partner is sharing. I explain which attachment styles tend to do this. And then I share how you can work on listening to connect with your partner. When you drop this habit and start helping your partner feel seen and heard it really changes your relationship for the better. Plus you can use this tool in other areas of your life like work and with family. Tune in to drop the defensiveness.
