About The Less Triggered Tribe

Connection doesn’t break down between people, but within people.

I have a Ph. D. in clinical psychology with a focus on communication and conflict. Just a few years into my career, though, I hit a ceiling in how much I could help my clients, and my own marriage was falling apart. That’s when I discovered the real source of relationship conflict: we think we’re connecting, when we’re actually protecting.
