Expressing our need is a risky proposition. What if my spouse/partner doesn’t respond? What if my need to connect is dismissed or ignored? If we experience a repeated pattern of our needs being ignored or dismissed, then we learn to withhold and refrain from expressing them-asking just becomes too painful. Yet a repressed need for connection, leads to disconnection. Join us for a conversation on how our own family origin story surrounding need impacts the way in which we navigate need in our marriage. Learn helpful ways of expressing need that cultivate connection in marriage.
