A lot of what I experience with my clients, and what I also experienced in my earlier relationships, is a desire to eradicate conflict altogether. Even during the research for this episode, I came across a clip where the audience and the host's were surprised to hear that conflict isn't just important, but its actually necessary. Conflict has been given a bad rep, especially in intimate relationships, but without it, our relationships won't evolve, they won't grow, and they won't be able to sustain anything long-lasting. The solution? Learning how to fight better.
