Do you want to know why 85% of stonewalling happens in men? Research shows that between husband and wife the husband is more likely to fall into the pattern of stonewalling. With that said, research also shows that when the wife stonewalls it’s a real red flag signalling the risk of divorce. Stonewalling often follows when there’s a pattern of contempt in communication. And although in some cases stonewalling can be used intentionally as a manipulation tactic within abusive relationships, this is not what is actually happening in most cases. But whatever the reason for stonewalling, this emotional shutdown always communicates a message of rejection to your partner, and this is why in this episode we share how couples can consciously communicate to eradicate stonewalling as a pattern and transform the marriage together. By following the four steps we share in this episode you will be able to catch the partner before it escalates in conflict and turn the situation around so that no partner is feeling rejected or hurt anymore.  Share this episode with your partner and unlock even better results together! If you enjoyed this episode follow, subscribe and leave a review.
