In relationships, it's easy to fall into the trap of keeping score counting. Who does more chores, who spends more time with the kids, or who provides more emotional support. But when relationships become transactional, with each partner focused on getting their fair share, it starts to create a division rather than closeness.
In today's episode, we're talking about the concept of radical generosity and how it can help shift your relationship from competition to collaboration. Join us as we explore how embracing a team mindset can strengthen your bond, allowing you both to thrive in times of scarcity. We'll share practical strategies to break free of the scorekeeping cycle and build a relationship where both partners feel valued, appreciated and fully supported.

Hard truths. We often hold them in the back of our minds, but we don't necessarily seem to talk about them or even acknowledge them. Why? Well, because they are, as the name implies, hard.

We're here to help you grow your relationship. So we're dishing out the truth today and hoping that its hardness will land in a way that may ultimately soften your path to a more connected and deeper relationship.
