🔈 A quick note: I was testing out some new equipment while recording this, so the audio may sound a little off in places. Thanks for your grace as I find new ways to bring these conversations to life.

In this episode, I explore one of the most subtle and sacred tensions in any long-term relationship: the quiet miscommunications that slowly chip away at connection—not with yelling, but with silence, confusion, and resentment.

We often say we have a “communication problem,” but what if the truth is deeper? What if you’re not failing—but just speaking different emotional languages?

I’ll walk you through:

✅ Why women seek connection while men seek clarity—and how both get lost in translation

✅ How “I’m fine” can carry a hundred meanings

✅ Why listening first (really listening) is the most loving act

✅ How past resentment can suddenly erupt as anger in the kitchen—and what it really means

✅ What it looks like to be slow to speak, quick to listen in your marriage

Whether you’re an introvert married to an extrovert, a feeler partnered with a fixer, or simply two good people who keep missing each other, this episode is a gentle reminder:

You were never meant to be fluent in each other’s language on day one. Love is not a script—it’s a lifetime of learning.

This isn’t about winning conversations. It’s about understanding the heart beneath the words—and sometimes, the words left unsaid.
