“Zero is the happy place where we feel good and connected again, and that’s where most of us want to be in our lives – we want to be at zero with the people who matter most to us.” – Jayson Gaddis
Intro
Today I’m interviewing my super-smart friend, Jayson Gaddis, who just released a brand new book called Getting to Zero: How to Work Through Conflict in Your High Stakes Relationships.
If you are a conflict avoider, you sometimes passive-aggressively communicate your displeasure rather than having a conversation about it, or you just don’t know how to repair your relationship after there has been a blowup or rupture, this episode is for you.
Highlights:
- 01:56 How a painful journey inspired Jayson to write his new book
- 03:48 The biggest problems that people run into figuring out the conflicts in their relationships
- 04:55 How Jayson defines conflict
- 06:27 What does “getting to zero” mean in our relationships?
- 08:48 Conflict types – Do you posture, collapse, seek, or avoid?
- 10:40 How we create inner conflicts from outer conflicts
- 11:52 The top 5 most common types of relationship conflicts
- 14:16 Identifying roadblocks to connection
- 15:44 How can we reduce defensiveness in our conflicts?
- 19:24 Relational blueprints and plasticity
