Marriage Communication That Heals: The Surprising Way to Turn Conflict Into Connection | Lisa Gray

Can the way you argue actually strengthen your marriage and bring you closer together?

On this week’s Better Health Bookshelf, I’m featuring the book Healthy Conflict, Happy Couple by marriage and family therapist Lisa Gray.

Lisa is a licensed mental health professional who helps couples transform conflict into connection. With years of experience guiding high-conflict couples, Lisa shares a practical roadmap for improving marriage communication and creating deeper intimacy.

In this inspiring conversation, Lisa and I explore how healthy conflict can actually improve emotional and physical well-being.

She explains why marriage communication often breaks down and how couples can rebuild trust by learning to pause, listen, and approach disagreements with curiosity instead of anger.

We discuss her three-step process for conflict resolution and how simple changes in couples communication can completely change the tone of a relationship.

If you’ve ever wished you could argue less and connect more, this episode will give you the tools and hope to do just that.
