Shirley Johnson - a licenced marriage and family therapist - shares her knowledge on dealing with conflicts that might come up in relationships. She offers tools on how to avoid the anxiety of confrontation, how to stay connected when we are in disconnection, how to get to the source of the conflict, and how to regulate our nervous system in a state of mind that leads us to conflict resolution.

What you'll learn (or why you should care):

• The main sources of conflict in couples
• How to normalise talking about sex from early on in your relationships
• The importance of being present in your body during a conflict
