and Psalm 23, Dan explains how the soul can become fragmented through trauma, with different parts carrying unresolved wounds and reacting to triggers within marriage. While spouses should honor one another’s sensitivities, he emphasizes that disproportionate or seemingly irrational reactions can point to deeper internal wounds that need healing. Using the example of “Steve,” whose intense anger over misplaced tools is connected to a wounded five-year-old part he calls “Stevie,” Dan illustrates how forgiveness, prayer, and “integration” can help resolve the underlying wound. As these internal parts are healed and integrated, triggers can lose their power offering couples hope for greater freedom, healing, and breakthrough in their marriages.
