Using 'The Work' to Navigate Marital Conflicts: Preston Moore's Honest Take

I would be calm, more collaborative. More of a partnership instead of a battle between two people.
Have you ever had a disagreement with your partner that spiraled out of control? Preston Moore knows the feeling all too well. In this candid episode of 'The High Cost of Anonymity', he opens up about a recent argument with his wife over bedtime duties for their child, Austin. Preston shares how his frustration built up from a weekend of 'parenting duty', leading him to concoct a narrative in his head about doing most of the heavy lifting.
Instead of simply asking for a break, he tried to manipulate the situation, which only made things worse. The real eye-opener came the next morning when Preston turned to Byron Katie’s 'The Work' to untangle his emotions. Through a series of four questions and a turnaround, he discovered that his own insecurities and failure to communicate were at the heart of the conflict.
This episode isn't just about one man's marital spat; it's a powerful reminder of how sharing our personal stories can break down the stigma around mental health and relationship struggles. Preston’s journey shows that by using tools like 'The Work', we can challenge our negative thoughts and build more collaborative and equal partnerships. If you're looking for real-life advice on improving communication and understanding in your relationships, this episode is a must-listen.
