You want to quickly & easily diffuse tension & reconnect with your spouse
Each Building Block module of The Conflict Diffuser Blueprint provides communication solutions for patterns that happen for many couples.
Courses address topics like:
- How to attend to ourselves before entering into a potential conflict so that when things are heated, you can first decompress yourself
- What to do and say when a misunderstanding happens so that you can get to a peaceful resolution more quickly
- How to respond when one of you wants to talk and the other wants to problem solve so that you can get your needs met
- How to be a team when visiting family & in-laws so that you remain close to each other
The material is presented in video and written form with an accompanying pdf you can download.
The courses are practical and include sample scripts for what you can say in different scenarios. I provide with lots of options so you can choose what works best for you.

This fits into a bigger framework
A healthy relationship isn’t about the absence of conflict, it’s about knowing how to successfully resolve an argument and then reconnect.
I notice that my clients benefit when I guide them on an upward spiral of steps which I call The Harmony Method.
The 3 Steps of The Harmony Method:
- Create Curiosity
- Decrease Conflict
- Increase Intimacy
With each successful step the couple creates something beautiful together as they move closer to a marriage they love.
As couples practice the three steps and experience success along the way, they move to an elevated level and are prepared for when a new conflict presents itself. We’re human, so there will be future conflicts to navigate with more opportunities to practice the three steps!
The Conflict Diffuser Blueprint is an introductory sampling of what can be done to decrease conflict.
