In the “How to Have a Better Relationship” episode, the founder of Brace Life Studios, Robert Brace, gave tools to help us navigate the challenges that come with romantic relationships. No one teaches you how to be a good partner and way too many of us are just winging it.

‍

This conversation helps to provide the tools to show up as better people for our partners. Getting curious and putting our ego to bed in order to communicate more effectively sounds easy, but has been proven to trip many of us up. Healthy relationships don’t happen by accident, nor do they happen overnight, our commitment to it changes the experience.

‍

KEY POINTS:

Once we get in our own heads it’s easy to confirm whatever bias we have in our minds.

If you’re judging while your partner is explaining how they’re feeling then your energy is spent on your judgment versus the curiosity of why they feel the way they do.

Feeling like a simp a lot of times comes from the feeling of having to keep doing without ever receiving also.

Lay your ego down and remain curious.

When you dismiss your partner’s effort it shuts them down and makes them less available to you emotionally.

Natural is whatever you decide it to be.

‍

QUOTABLES:

“Depth requires energy. Take the time to replenish yourself.”

“Learn to listen through your own judgment.”

“Stay curious because that’s when you begin to better understand each other.”

“If you want something that’s going to last and go deep you’re going to have to make some commitments to it.”
