Communication can be tricky, especially during conflict.

Sometimes, we can minimize our partner's feelings in order to make it more tolerable for us.

Good communication requires great listening.

• Be present with your partner.

• Resist the urge to minimize their feelings or try to make them feel "better."

• Your goal in being a great listener is to build understanding of your partner's thoughts, perspective, and priorities.
