Conflict is part of every relationship, but how we handle it is what really matters.In the final episode of our mini-series with cognitive neuroscientist Alexis Fernandez-Preiksa, we’re diving into what’s actually happening in your brain during conflict, and how your patterns, reactions and even past experiences can shape the way you argue, avoid, or shut down.We unpack the difference between healthy and unhealthy conflict, how to stop reacting on autopilot, and the small communication shifts that can lead to stronger, more secure relationships.Whether you avoid conflict at all costs or tend to meet it head-on, this episode is full of practical tools to help you navigate tough conversations with more self-awareness and a little less drama.More from Alexis: @alexisfernandezpreiksaFollow us: @movewithus | @racheljdillon
