How To Be A Team Player To Your Partner
Nov 23, 2022
The title says it all: how can you ensure you’re being a team player to your partner, and why does it even matter?
We’re getting into it in this episode and exploring all the many ways that competition between partners can happen (score-keeping housework, anyone?) so you can be aware when it’s happening and start to work WITH your partner - instead of against them - because the truth is, competing against your partner only causes strife, frustration, and ultimately, dysfunction.
We also dive into how partner competition affects the polarity in your relationship, and why being in your most natural energetic state makes life just flow a whole lot easier - and who doesn’t need more of that in their life?
