Mind Pilot Episode 89
Kindness, gratitude, connection, Dr. Jana distills relationship wisdom into three rules you can use today. She walks you through managing anger by taking a break before damage is done, shows how simple thanks for dishes, laundry, or bringing in groceries grows goodwill, and offers quick text prompts that keep you and your partner feeling chosen even on hectic days. A short story about a father texting I love you illustrates how fast affection can flow when someone goes first, and the heart in a box question helps you gauge safety and trust, with a thoughtful reminder that your happiness still matters if the effort is not mutual.
Topics Covered:
- BE NICE: Catch anger early, step away before saying words you cannot take back, aim to build up rather than tear down.
- SAY THANK YOU: Notice chores and small acts, express appreciation out loud to reinforce goodwill and teamwork.
- STAY CONNECTED: Use quick texts during busy days, say I love you and I am thinking of you to keep the thread alive.
- HEART SAFETY: Ask if your partner would trust you with their heart, honor your right to happiness if effort is not mutual.
