Welcome to Mr. and Mrs. Therapy, the podcast that empowers you to transform life's challenges into opportunities for personal growth and healthier relationships. We're your hosts, Tim and Ruth Olson, licensed marriage and family therapists and trauma experts. Together, we'll unravel the layers of personal growth, healing from trauma, and building healthy relationships.

In this episode, we discuss a common issue couples face: the pursuit of absolute victory in conflicts. We'll explore the pitfalls of trying to win every argument, the underlying drives such as control and insecurity, and the impact on your relationship. Learn how seeking to dominate in disagreements can lead to emotional distancing, loss of intimacy, and long-term relational breakdowns.

Join us as we delve into the differences in decision-making and communication styles, and how they can cause friction. We'll also touch on the consequences of creating a culture of shame and the importance of resolving conflicts to avoid cumulative emotional damage.

Tune in to understand why absolute victory in arguments isn't beneficial and stay tuned for our next episode where we'll offer healthy alternatives and practical tools to foster better communication and understanding in your marriage.

Remember, your mind is a powerful thing. Thank you for joining us on Mr. and Mrs. Therapy. There's always hope, and there's always help.
