Dr. Elliott Kronenfeld","html":"","width":"100%","height":180,"duration":3274,"description":"In this episode of Resiliency The Podcast, Jenn Quader and Dr. Kelly Culver welcome Dr. Elliott Kronenfeld for a powerful conversation about resilience in our most intimate relationships.Dr. Kronenfeld is a therapist, author, educator, and relationship expert whose work explores the intersection of emotional healing, relationship science, trust, grief, and personal transformation. Through his Couples by Intention framework, he helps individuals and couples move from reactive patterns into conscious choice, curiosity, and deeper connection.We discuss what happens when relationships face rupture—through infidelity, infertility, identity shifts, grief, and unspoken pain—and how resilience can become a practice of intentionality, listening, and repair.Dr. Kronenfeld also shares insights from his book Unspoken Loss: Men, Infidelity, and Disenfranchised Grief, helping us understand the grief that often goes unnamed, unsupported, or misunderstood.In this episode, we discuss:Why resilience begins with remembering we have a choice How curiosity can interrupt assumptions and emotional reactivity Why listening is one of the most important relationship skills What it means to rebuild trust after rupture The difference between forgiveness, trust, and security Disenfranchised grief and “shadow losses” Infidelity, infertility, shame, and unspoken grief How breath, yoga, and nervous system regulation support resilience Dr. Kronenfeld reminds us that resilience is not only personal, it can also be relational. It can live in the space between people, in the choice to listen, repair, rebuild, and begin again with intention.Chapters00:00 — Introduction to Dr. Elliott Kronenfeld 02:14 — What resilience means to Elliott 04:00 — Curiosity as the opposite of assumption 05:38 — Why listening is a relationship skill 08:50 — What leadership teaches us about relationships 12:18 — Resilience inside intimate relationships 13:15 — Rebuilding trust after infidelity 16:41 — Why repair means...","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/FQhaEeVBMNnb3LdOlDDQg9QrcyUSjfBu7WHGfzu0m3s/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS9jYzFj/NjdhZmRlODYyM2Fh/MmI4M2JmZDcxZWM3/NDNiYi5wbmc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
