How to Deal with Emotional Shutdown in Relationships

Welcome back to another episode of The Relationship Pod! I’m your host, Sarah Boutros, and today, I'm diving deep into a solo episode where I get real and vulnerable about a topic that many can relate to: emotional shutdowns in our relationships during tough moments.

In this episode, we’ll explore:

• My childhood experiences with conflict and their lasting impact
• Tips for improving communication and speaking up effectively
• The importance of giving yourself space to process emotions
• Strategies for sharing your feelings with your partner without causing panic
• Embracing vulnerability by getting comfortable with being wrong

If you’ve ever felt the urge to clam up when things heat up in your relationship, this episode is packed with practical tips and insights to help you navigate those moments with more grace and openness.

I hope you found some valuable insights and strategies to help navigate emotional shutdowns in your relationships. Remember, it's all about progress, not perfection. We’re on this journey together, and every step toward better communication is a win.
