info_outlineStress between romantic partners can be one of the most difficult to process, especially when you’re living together. Relationship stress is hard to get away from, whether it’s the little, everyday annoyances, occasional arguments, or totally irreconcilable differences. Today’s guest, love and relationship expert Arielle Ford, says relationships don’t have to be stressful!
Arielle is the author of 11 best-selling books about love and relationships and has helped a multitude of women find the love they deserve. Not only that, she helps you learn how to manifest more love in your life and how to BE more love. Arielle is charismatic, welcoming, and an absolutely joyful personal friend of mine.
She agrees that we’re more likely to take out our daily stress on our partners - whether we mean to or not, they’re someone we feel comfortable with… and they’re always there. But there’s a healthy and an unhealthy way of unloading your stress, and Arielle explains how we can share better. Dealing with life’s stress is one thing, what happens when we’re feeling the stress from within our relationship?
The key is to recognize that no one in this world is perfect, and that includes your partner. Once you’ve come to this acceptance and reframed your responses, you’ll find you can more easily accept their small annoyances.
Arielle stresses that it’s completely normal to have up to 9 irreconcilable differences with your partner! These can be anything from how you organize your finances to what the best way to keep a clean house is. When you learn to accept these differences and look past them to the love you have for each other, you’ll start to see the stress melting away.
Arielle also shares some advice on how to improve the love between you and your partner. She shares some very personal stories that are sure to make you smile. She also encourages all women to become pleasure puppies and explore one thing every day that makes us feel special.
