Summary

Do you avoid conflict, shut down, or expect the worst when tension shows up in your relationships? In this episode, Sarah explores why conflict can feel so scary, especially when old relational wounds get activated in the present. She explains that ruptures or disagreements are actually a normal part of any close relationships, and why the people we care about most often bring up the parts of us that still need healing.
