Shownotes

What seems intuitive turns out to be wrong.

Successful long-term relationships have as many, perhaps even more, differences than those who fail or survive but never thrive. How can this be?

People who learn to de-personalize differences succeed. Those who don't, well, they don't succeed.

Differences are inevitable. Letting them destroy your relationships isn't. Learn how to navigate them successfully. In today's episode, we discuss:

  • Identifying the difference between style and substance
  • Getting curious about why a difference bugs you
  • Treating differences like a photo rather than a magnet
  • The danger of projecting
  • Staying solution-oriented and refusing stereotypes
  • Going back to relationship bedrock -- expectations
