In this episode, Kamini Wood explores the powerful and often misinterpreted silence in relationships that emerges during conflict, which is distinct from peaceful quiet. She explains that withdrawal is rarely about punishment; instead, it's often a survival mechanism or a shield rooted in old attachment wounds or feelings of shame that whisper, "You're not good enough." Kamini highlights the dangerous mismatch: one partner's silence (a form of protection) is received by the other as rejection or abandonment, eroding emotional safety. The episode provides crucial awareness for the "silent partner," validating their past use of silence as a protector, while offering small, actionable steps—like stating "I need to pause, but I want to talk about this later"—to break the pattern and start building a safer, more connected way of engaging in difficult conversations.
