About this listen

In this powerful continuation from Bethesda, Danny and Brittney tackle real-life questions from a live audience about conflict, connection, and covenant. Through raw and insightful stories—from car ride disconnection to navigating orphan mindsets and newlywed advice—they highlight the courage and humility it takes to lead in relationships. Whether you’re married, mentoring others, or healing from disconnection yourself, this episode will challenge you to protect connection, prioritize self-awareness, and embrace the path of growth and reconciliation.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

  • How listening better than someone is talking changes the emotional climate of a relationship.

  • Why hurt often masquerades as anger—and how to respond with compassion.

  • What to do when someone is stuck in self-protection or an orphan mindset.

  • Why curiosity and self-awareness are keys to thriving in marriage.

  • How to use five simple words to communicate emotional truth and protect connection.

Key Takeaways:

  • Listening is an act of protection: When you slow down and truly understand what someone is feeling, you create safety and open the door to healing.

  • Self-justification is the enemy of connection: Owning your part, even when it’s uncomfortable, is the path to deeper trust.

  • Curiosity transforms conflict: When you stop blaming and start getting curious—about yourself and others—you create space for growth.

  • Connection must be protected at all costs: React to disconnection like your couch is on fire—drop everything and deal with it.

  • Simple words bring powerful clarity: Words like “ouch,” “yikes,” and “ugh” help you name what’s happening inside and move toward reconnection.
