ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Want to know if your relationship has what it takes to last? Pay attention to what happens when you disagree.
Everyone wants to know if they've found the right person.
Are we compatible? Is this relationship healthy? How do I know if this is someone I should build a future with?
Here's a better question:
How do we handle conflict?
In this Truth Bomb episode of The Truth About Healing, trauma therapist and EMDR expert Dana Carretta-Stein breaks down one of the most revealing indicators of relationship health: how two people navigate conflict, communicate through discomfort, and repair after things go wrong.
Because here's the truth:
Conflict is inevitable. Repair is what builds resilience.
A relationship without conflict isn't necessarily a healthy relationship. And having a terrible argument doesn't automatically mean you're with the wrong person.
What matters is whether both people are willing to recognize their patterns, take accountability, and work toward repair.
