Bruce Muzik - Being Vulnerable so We Can Connect

Is it hard to recover and make up after a fight? According to Dr. Harville Hendrix, it's not about how often you fight - it's about how quickly you can recover. Kamala and I agree. It's during those fights and those times of distance that many couples grow apart, fall out love, or decide it's just not worth it. But here's the thing -- every couple struggles sometimes, and every couple has to master the critical skill of recovery and reconnection. Before I continue, let me tell you that Kamala and I are like any couple - we argue and we mess up. Earlier this week we had one of those fails. We got into an argument, things weren't handled the best. We had to take a breather, take a time out, and then come back together. Fortunately Kamala and I know some secretes to cover the gap, make up, and get connected quickly. In today's episode we will delve into the skills needed for recovery, the mindset to help you get the love back, and have that amazing connection.
