Have you ever felt unheard in your relationship - even when you’re trying so hard to communicate clearly?
Do arguments escalate quickly, leaving you wondering why your partner (or your child) just doesn’t seem to get it?

You’re both in the same conversation.
You’re both in the same room.
But you didn’t come through the same door.

In this episode of The Parenting Lab, I’m sharing one of the most practical relationship frameworks I use with clients: Head, Heart, and Hands.

Every relationship operates through three foundational channels:

• The Head (logic, understanding, perspective)

• The Heart (emotion, attachment, connection)

• The Hands (action, follow-through, repair)

Most conflict doesn’t happen because we don’t love each other.
It happens because we’re entering the moment through different doors.

We’ll talk about:

• Why problem-solving can feel invalidating

• Why emotional reactions escalate conflict

• How attachment patterns shape your default response

• What happens when thinking, feeling, and action aren’t aligned

• Practical ways to improve communication in marriage and parenting

This episode blends the science of attachment and nervous system regulation with the art of communication and connection - so you can stop fighting the wrong battle and start building trust instead.

If you’ve ever thought, “Why do we keep having the same fight?” - this framework will change how you see conflict, connection, and the people you love most.
