When to speak up, and when to pipe down (opens the original)
Read excerpt
We worry we sometimes confuse our listeners with mixed messages. We say: don't be a jerk. Don't sweat the small stuff. Bite you tongue unless something really matters. Be careful not to endlessly whine and moan at your partner. We also say: when something bothers you, speak up early, do it directly but without heat, and ask for what you want. What do we really mean? And how do you make your way through this tricky terrain? All this and more in this episode. You can work with Graham here: www.gra
Easy as ABC: Communication in Relationships (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Matt thinks everything can be boiled down to ABC. Acknowledge. Build. Counter. It fits the bill for the argument about household chores.

Who's to blame for your relationship problems? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
It's Episode 50! To celebrate, we're shining a sceptical spotlight on the age-old trope of blaming the parents (especially the mum). It's a familiar story in psychology literature. Bad parenting causes schizophrenia. Bad parenting causes depression. Bad parenting causes insecure attachment. Bad parenting maybe even causes autism. What's the truth behind the claims? And even where there are nuggets of truth, what can you do to take responsibility of your own future and improve your relationships?
We Over-Complicate Relationships (opens the original)
Read excerpt
We like to think of ourselves - and our relationships - as complex. Surely if we're bright, capable, successful people with relationship problems, those problems must be multi-faceted and sophisticated. Maybe it's due to our attachment styles and complicated personal histories? Matt and Graham argue that, in a lot of cases, simple changes in behaviours transform relationships.
