Two questions that changed the way we communicate in our marriage:
“What are you thinking?”
and
“Are you open to hearing my thoughts on this?”
That’s it.
Years ago, my husband had no idea I was quietly using some of my coaching techniques on him. 😂
One day I finally told him.
We laughed.
But here’s the thing…
It worked.
31 years into marriage, I can genuinely say our communication is top notch.
We don’t fight.
We disagree often.
We see things differently often.
We are two very different people.
But we’ve learned that neither person has to be wrong for the other person to be right.
Curiosity leads.
Calm tone leads.
Asking instead of assuming leads.
And giving each other the space to actually share what we’re thinking …without immediately correcting, defending or trying to change the other person’s mind …leads.
Sometimes the most powerful shift in a relationship isn’t having better answers.
It’s learning to ask better questions.
“What are you thinking?”
“Are you open to hearing my thoughts on this?”
Try them.
Take what you need today. 🤍
