📝 Episode Summary

Tana discusses how brain scans saved her marriage.

🎯 Top Takeaways

  1. Relationships are skills that can be learned and improved with practice
  2. Repair matters more than prevention: all couples fight; good ones recover well
  3. Emotional bids: small moments of connection build or erode trust over time
  4. Vulnerability creates connection: showing weakness builds stronger bonds than performing strength
  5. Boundaries protect relationships: clear limits create safety, not distance
