What happens when the roles you learned to play in relationships start costing you yourself?
In this episode of Notes From the Edge, Lisa Lacy sits down with relationship and intimacy coaches Natalie Vartanian and Glenn Nielsen for an honest conversation about marriage, somatic healing, nervous system regulation, inherited relationship roles, and what happens when couples stop blaming each other long enough to look beneath the conflict.
Natalie and Glenn share how even after years of personal growth and entering their marriage intentionally, old conditioning began showing up. Natalie found herself becoming a muted version of herself, while Glenn wrestled with the enormous pressure of being the provider after the collapse of a business he had built over decades.
Together, they explore why sometimes the intensity of our reaction has more to do with what is happening inside us than what our partner actually did, and how couples can begin creating a relationship based on conscious choice rather than inherited expectations.
In this episode:
• How the “good wife” and “good husband” roles can quietly create resentment and pressure
• Why your nervous system may be reacting to something deeper than the argument in front of you
• Somatic awareness and learning to recognize activation in the body
• Taking responsibility for your own patterns without turning relationship work into blame
• How couples can intentionally create agreements, connection, intimacy, and a relationship that allows both people to fully exist
