When you and your partner hit a leadership bump in the road and you're struggling to stay connected and communicate effectively, pause and honestly ask yourself these 3 questions:

1. Am I really listening to my partner and affirming their perspective…or am I quick to disagree?
2. Am I curious about what my partner might be experiencing…or have I become critical?
3. What am I experiencing emotionally and how might I openly express and manage my own emotions well?
