Have you ever felt like certain conversations in relationships just set you off? 

Many of us find ourselves reacting emotionally, often due to our "buttons" being pushed, without fully understanding why.

This can lead to cycles of conflict and misunderstanding that erode our relationships. It often feels like our emotions are controlled by the words and actions of others, leaving us feeling powerless and frustrated.

In this episode, I dive into the nature of communication and the patterns that define our interactions, or the "relationship dance." We'll explore how to recognize when you're emotionally triggered and why these reactions occur. 

More importantly, I'll guide you through the steps to "uninstall" your buttons, empowering you to respond to conversations with clarity and strength, rather than react out of habit. 

Join me as we unpack the power of listening, the importance of distinguishing between hearing and interpreting, and how to alter your emotional responses in relationships for more peaceful and effective communication.
