The Most Important Relationship Skill No One Ever Taught You

If you and your partner feel stuck after conflict—still distant, still hurt, unsure how to reconnect—this episode is for you. Dr. Tracy breaks down the science of relationship repair and shares the exact steps that transform conflict into deeper connection. What You'll Learn: - Why impact matters more than intent (and why this changes everything) - The #1 mistake couples make during repair (and how to avoid it) - How your attachment style affects how you show up after conflict - Why "I'm sorry" often backfires—and what actually works instead - The 30-second eye contact practice that releases oxytocin and rebuilds trust - How to repair even if you never saw your parents do it Hey there! I’m Dr. Tracy, Clinical Psychologist and Relationship Expert. I take the concepts, tools, and exercises that I use with real couples everyday and show you how you can implement them in your life and in your relationships. Backed by evidence and real clinical experience.
