In this episode, we reveal the simple shift that instantly stops heated fights—and why blaming yourself (authentically) disarms conflict fast. You’ll learn how psychological safety works, why responsibility calms the nervous system, and how “tactical empathy” gets you back to real conversation instead of ego battles. From a kitchen argument, to Chris Voss’ negotiation tactics, to knowing when a partner is actually toxic—this episode shows how accountability ends the fight so you can solve the real issue.
