The 3 Words That Calm Any Heated Conversation
Welcome back to another empowering episode of The You Matter Podcast! I’m Amanda Beilke, your relationship coach and founder of the Love Map Institute. Today, we’re diving deep into the heart of communication in marriage, especially for those moments when you feel misunderstood or disconnected from your husband.
In this episode, I share a personal story from my early marriage that many of you may relate to—a moment filled with frustration and silence instead of connection. I’ll introduce you to three simple yet powerful words that can transform your conversations and foster emotional intimacy: “I hear you.” These words have the potential to de-escalate conflicts and create a safe space for open dialogue.
