Foreplay Radio – Couples and Sex Therapy

Welcome Brave Lovers! In this episode, we are tackling the negative cycle. Join Laurie and George as they discuss why just knowing your negative cycle is not enough. Couples that create lasting change unite together against the negative cycle. Listen in as we show you how to externalize the negative cycle to be something you can unite against. Partners that work to see the problem as something separate than the individuals have a better chance to express vulnerabilities. Vulnerability invites the partner into the solution rather than making them part of the problem. When couples work to solve problems together they create more security and relational safety. Make sure to rate and review this episode and share it with your partner! Fight that cycle together and be brave!
