In this deeply insightful episode of Love Life and You, Dr. Jacquie is joined by Pastor Steven Rodriguez to unpack a quiet but powerful destroyer of connection: the silent treatment. Together, they explore how withholding communication becomes a form of passive aggression, manipulation, and even punishment in relationships.
Dr. Jacquie shares strategies to help couples:
Recognize when silence is being used to avoid conflict or control it
Uncover the childhood roots that fuel emotional withdrawal
Set accountability-based agreements to shift toward productive dialogue
Implement clear conflict-resolution rituals to restore connection
Whether you're the one going quiet—or the one left in emotional limbo—this episode is your toolkit to break the silence and rebuild trust.
