Ep19: Attention Issues in Romantic Relationships

We're answering one of our TikTok viewer's questions on today's podcast: what to do about attentional issues getting in the way of remembering and understanding. Let's start with this, our TikTok videos are 9-seconds on average. Yet, to get 9-seconds of our attention these days is a challenge. What does that mean for our long-term relationships? There are tons of changes that we can make in our life that will nourish healthier attention. In this episode, we dive into one strategy we can use when in conversation with our partner. Tomorrow we'll talk more about the Stress-Reducing Conversation within Gottman's conceptualization.Tip: Consult with a psychiatric nurse practitioner, physician, or psychiatrist about addressing chronic, long-standing inattention and/or hyperactivity. You can always start a conversation about this with your primary care doctor. There is consensus in the field that a stimulant like Adderall or Ritalin can be an effective tool in addressing attentional issues that begin in childhood. In adulthood and in long-term relationships, options continue to exist and all are encouraged to consult with local mental health professionals about those options.Subscribe and share with a friend: https://abetterlove.buzzsprout.com/Follow us @abetterloveproject on TikTok and Instagram for daily science-based relationship advice.Support the show

Ep18: The Aspiration of Unconditional Positive Regard

Join Dr. Greg, a board-certified couples psychologist, to discuss how to love less conditionally in our romantic relationships and with our kids.We want to distinguish between self-worth and the availability of our love and affection. Kids who have parents who are emotionally validating regardless of their progress toward goals (i.e. academic, extracurricular) fare easier in romantic relationships.Marriage, for instance, has us showing up as ourselves every day with a partner for decades at a time. We want to feel loved as we are, regardless of transient moods or any given day in a 10+ year relationship.The same goes for kids, who soak up critical or contemptuous messages that hurt their self-esteem, efficacy, and sense of self-worth. When talking to their kids, it’s helpful for parents to stay focused on their life-affirming values and less on what a child may not be doing particularly well at that moment. When a child develops strong self-worth through positive reinforcement versus criticism, they can thrive. And when they start their own relationships, they’ll do so with greater self-esteem and relational skills.✨ Subscribe to hear next week’s episode on another great couples and family topic: https://abetterlove.buzzsprout.com/Follow @abetterloveproject on TikTok and Instagram for daily science-based relationship advice.Support the show
