About this listen

In this episode, Kari Hoskins tackles one of the most maddening relationship dynamics: what to do when your partner completely shuts down and refuses to communicate—a pattern known as stonewalling. Kari breaks down why people stonewall (spoiler: it’s often not about you), what it looks like, and why it’s one of the top predictors of divorce. She dives into the damaging Pursue-Withdraw cycle, offers clear signs to help you identify stonewalling, and gives listeners practical tools to break the pattern, reconnect emotionally, and decide how to move forward. Whether you're the pursuer or the distancer, this episode is full of truth bombs, empathy, and smart strategies you can actually use.

Learn how to communicate with a partner who has emotionally checked out, rebuild trust, and—if needed—make the tough call with clarity.
