Growing Authentic, Loving Relationships With Jayson Gaddis (Repost)

The Yes Collective Podcast with Justin Wilford, PhD

EPISODE #66 - We're continuing our February focus on building and maintaining authentic relationships with this podcast rewind from last year with the relationship coach Jayson Gaddis. We've long known about Jayson and the amazing work he does at The Relationship School and we couldn't wait to have him come on the podcast. We dove into Jayson's journey to becoming a relationship expert (a title that he rejects, but we're giving it him anyway!), how his relationships with his partner and kids have blossomed because of his work, how conflict in any relationship is inevitable, and how repair and growth are always possible.

We also get some amazing tools and strategies from his new book Getting to Zero: How to Work Through Conflict in Your High Stakes Relationships. We talk about practices that can help anyone repair relationships and achieve deep connection amidst any conflict. If you have a high-stakes relationship in your life, whether it's your marriage, your kids, at work, or a friendship, then you'll absolutely want to tune in.
