Coach Ambereen says connect with your partner before you try to correct them. Be kind and authentic first, then use gentle observation to point out behavior changes, like noticing they've stopped taking care of themselves. This approach dissolves defensiveness and opens real conversation.
Connection is actually a key human driver. Most of, most of the people around you really just want deep, rich, meaningful connection, which means that before you go to correct your partner, your husband, your wife, I want you to really connect with them. Be kind, be authentic, be uplifting, be praiseworthy. Say all the right things like, hey, you know what, I've noticed that as of recent, um, you're really not doing X as well as you used to. The X could be like you're not taking as great care of yourself as you used to, right? Connect with them and tell them that you feel like something is not happening the way it usually is.
