Webinar 2 in the Gottman-Based Series | $37

You already know conflict is part of every relationship. What most couples never learn is how to fight in a way that brings them closer instead of wearing them down.

In this 30-minute, pre-recorded webinar, you’ll learn the exact patterns that predict relationship breakdown — and the specific tools to shift out of them, starting today.

What You’ll Learn

The Four Horsemen — and Their Antidotes The four communication patterns that most reliably predict relationship trouble: Criticism, Contempt, Defensiveness, and Stonewalling. You’ll learn how to recognize each one in real time, and the research-backed antidote for each — including why one of them alone is the single strongest predictor of divorce.

Flooding: The Body’s Role in Conflict. Sometimes shutting down isn’t coldness — it’s biology. You’ll learn what happens physiologically when conflict escalates, why rational conversation becomes nearly impossible past a certain point, and how to recognize it happening in yourself or your partner before it derails the conversation.

Solvable vs. Perpetual Problems Not every conflict is meant to be “solved.” You’ll learn the difference between problems that have a clear fix and the ongoing, values-based differences every couple lives with — and why trying to permanently resolve the second kind is often what leaves couples feeling stuck.

What’s Included

Your $37 gets you the full webinar plus five practical, ready-to-use downloads:

1. Flooding & Self-Soothing Plan — a simple, personalized plan for recognizing flooding and calming your body before a conversation goes off the rails
2. Progressive Muscle Relaxation Script — a step-by-step technique to physically de-escalate stress in the moment
3. Which Horseman Shows Up for You? — a short reflection guide to identify your own patterns under stress
4. Gridlocked vs. Managed Conflicts — a worksheet to help you tell the difference between a conflict that’s spiraling and one that’s being handled well
5. Post-Conflict Debrief — a simple guide for reconnecting with your partner after an argument, so repair actually happens

Who This Is For

Couples who love each other but keep having the same fight. Partners who want to understand why conflict escalates the way it does — not just be told to “communicate better.” Anyone ready to move from reacting in conflict to responding with intention.

No prior experience with Gottman’s work is required — though this webinar builds naturally on Webinar 1: The Foundation of Friendship, if you’d like the full picture.
