True or False? The Best Relationships Never Have Conflict

FALSE!!

Relationships are always between two unique people with many facets and loads of complexity. Therefore, there will be conflict! There will be points of disagreement and tension - and that's a GOOD thing!

This is the first episode in our myth-busting series where we break down the difference between the world's attitude and expectations of relationships versus the Soul Anchored view.

You'll learn that in the world's economy, it's great and expected for you to be in relationships to get from others. When it gets hard (like when you have disagreements, feel disconnected, struggle communicating, experience hurt feelings), it’s ok to just give up / walk away. And â€śChemistry” is something you either have or you don’t. 

But in Soul-Anchored Relationships, you approach any relationship with two goals in mind: 

  1. Getting to know the other person
  2. Letting the other person get to know you

This opens the door to authenticity and curiosity. We get to be curious about others by asking questions about how things make them feel, what they think, etc. And they reciprocate so that can both be known and understood. 

In this episode we bust the myth that "In good relationships, there must be 100% agreement on everything."

We highlight some key concepts such as: 

  • Mirroring can be dangerous 
  • Change is inevitable and ok
  • Differences can cause positive stress as they add to mystery, growth, and discovery
  • We need to leave space for personal expression 
  • Working through differences bonds us

Have you believed this relationships myth - consciously or subconsciously? What can you do to make sure you've busted it in your mind so it doesn't creep into your relationships?
