Ep 034: How to keep your cool in marriage w/Jason Schnitzer

What does it look like to have healthy conflict in marriage? How do you fight well? Or fair? Today, I talk with Jason Schnitzer who is a men's relationship coach. We get into all things anger. How to prevent a blow up, how to navigate through one, and how to reconcile if it happens.

Jason and I had a powerful conversation, and I know there's going to be SO MUCH GOLD for you to take from this conversation. Enjoy brothers. See the timestamps and links below.
