Five Losing Strategies


//Episode Overview//


In this episode, Dr. Dan explores five destructive communication strategies—silent treatment, sarcasm, stonewalling, sly criticism, and selective forgetfulness—that create emotional distance and erode trust in relationships. These behaviors often stem from control, fear, and insecurity, and while they may offer temporary power, they ultimately harm connections. The path to healthier relationships lies in recognizing and addressing these toxic patterns through open, honest communication, emotional vulnerability, and a commitment to personal growth and integrity. By choosing connection over control, we foster deeper, more authentic relationships, guided by grace and love.
