💭 What if most fights in your marriage could be stopped in the first five minutes?

Research shows that the opening 3–5 minutes of conflict usually predict whether the fight will spiral into disconnection or move toward repair. The good news? You don’t need hours of hashing it out to turn things around — just a few intentional minutes can shift everything.

In this episode of Marriage, Intimacy & Healing with Andrew & Lara, we’ll share:

❤️ Why the first five minutes decide the whole direction of a fight

🧠 How your body and mind escalate conflict without you realizing it

👫 The 5-Minute Reset Conversation framework to change patterns fast

📿 Practical tools to calm your nervous system and restore safety together

This isn’t about winning. It’s about choosing closeness over combat — and it works.
