Make Fight Night Your Date Night in February

Dr. Les and Leslie Parrott will be coming to Franklin on Sunday,  February 15, 2015 at People’s Church beginning  at 5pm. Relationship experts and New York Times best selling authors Drs. Les and Leslie Parrott are touring the country to help couples learn how to fight well.  We sat down with  Dr. Les Parrott to learn more about Fight Night based off their new book “The Good Fight: How Conflict Can Bring You Closer,”  what exactly do two psychologist fight about and how Loveless Cafe is on their list to visit while in Williamson County.

WS: Tell us about Fight Night?

Parrott: It is not a heavy counsel laden night.  It is really more of a date night.  We have what we call two rounds where  in the first round we share some of our experiences with the audience.  In round two we give you practical ways to handle conflict leaving you with a toolbox.  Most couples leave saying I wish that I had invited another couple to attend with us, we didn’t know we would have this much fun talking  about conflict.

WS: What do you and your wife fight about or do you fight?

Parrott:  We are like every other couple.  We have conflict usually revolving over schedules.  It will come up that one or the other didm’t inform the other about an engagement  for appointment.  It comes with busy lives just like yours.

WS:  Do you have any special plans for Valentines Day?

Parrott: As for most Valentine’s Day, we are on the road for a speaking engagement.  This year, we will be in Louisville, Kentucky.  Many a Valentine we have had dinner at the Chicago O’Hare airport.

WS:  While visiting Williamson County, do you have any favorite places?

Parrott:  We have visited this area many times.  There are so many good restaurants  that I enjoy but I really want to get to Loveless Cafe while in Franklin this time.  Tennessee has a special  meaning to our family as my grandfather is from East Tennessee.  They have actually named a mountain or actually it may be more like a hill called Parrott Hill.
