Dear Beautiful Soul 🌸,

You’ve probably been there: the heat rises in a conversation. You feel misunderstood, dismissed, or blamed. You want to stay grounded… but something hijacks your response.

The Relationship Freedom Code™ was designed for exactly these moments — to help you stay true to yourself without abandoning connection. This quiz reveals which step in the code you tend to skip or struggle with most, so you can reclaim your power, presence, and peace.

Let’s find out where your growth edge is.

PART 3: Communication & Connection Style

Withhold or explode — it’s hard to find the middle

Speak honestly with care

Avoiding conflict or staying silent

Being reactive or waiting until I’m overwhelmed

Using “I” statements when needed

Proactively setting clear boundaries from self-love

The other person validates me

There’s no conflict or tension

We talk openly and feel safe with each other

Both of us are authentic, free, and committed to growth

PART 4: Empathy, Compassion & Conscious Conflict

When someone is struggling emotionally, I…

Try to fix it or make them feel better so I can feel better

Take on their feelings and lose myself

Empathize while staying grounded in myself

Hold space while honoring their process and my boundaries

In emotionally charged moments, we often fall into patterns that quietly erode connection. Relationship expert Dr. John Gottman identified four of the most damaging behaviors in relationships—known as The Four Horsemen:

Criticism: Attacking your partner’s character instead of addressing a specific behavior (e.g., “You never think about anyone but yourself.”)
Defensiveness: Denying responsibility, making excuses, or counterattacking to protect yourself
Contempt: Speaking with sarcasm, mockery, or disrespect—often rooted in a sense of superiority
Stonewalling: Withdrawing from interaction, shutting down, or emotionally checking out during conflict

Recognizing these in yourself or others is the first step to shifting toward healthier, more conscious communication.

11. I can spot the 4 Horsemen (criticism, contempt, defensiveness, stonewalling)…

Not really — I tend to be caught in those patterns

I notice them after the fact

I catch them in the moment and work to shift

I actively avoid them and repair quickly when they show up

Great job! 🌼
