How to Truly Understand Your Partner (Without Fixing or Fighting)

In this episode, Kate and Eric reveal how to understand your partner, cut conflict, and build safety, trust, and deeper intimacy.

Why understanding and agreement aren’t the same and how mixing them up keeps couples stuck in the same fights.

• Practical tools: reflective listening, curiosity, and even short silences that create space for closeness.
• The role of timing: how to check your partner’s capacity before diving into hard conversations.
• Emotional safety builders: labeling feelings and asking, “Do you want advice or just a witness?”
• Advanced skills: empathy, attunement, and the Experience Cube for moving beyond surface talk into genuine intimacy.
