Conflict is inevitable in relationships. There is no way to avoid disagreements, different perspectives, or misunderstandings. However, when it comes to conflict in a relationship knowing how to Fight Fair is essential.  Despite the rules of engagement, we have all been guilty of doing and saying things that we later regret or that were unproductive to the overall health of the relationship. 

This episode goes beneath the surface of basic “rules” and explores why we do certain things, despite knowing better.  Why do we consistently apologize for the same things, but then react when triggered? How do we get off the roller coaster of unhealthy cycles or use conflict to propel us forward instead of backward? Drawing from decades of clinical experience and research, Dr. Demas answers many of these questions and more. If you are in a relationship or looking to improve how you do relationships, this is a must listen. Whether at work, in your family, or in an intimate relationship, improving how you deal with conflict critically important.
