"The source of healthy boundaries is self-love and self-respect. When you learn to love yourself, you are less likely to put up with people who don't love you back."
~ James Clear

Learn to love self so you can love your spouse and others well.

Or should I?

Today's episode touches on the unspoken questions we ask ourselves sometimes.

Marriage as an abstract concept is easy. Really easy.
But bring in two individual reactants and the product you get out of it can never be the same as the things that went into it.

Chemistry is a subject. And a process. Most reactions in chemistry require heat (and time) and catalysts.

Take a listen and think about this for your own unique relationships.👇🏾

Thank the good Lord for long dead French Philosopher Blaise Pascal who reminds us that "people are more generally persuaded by reasons they discover themselves than by those handed to them by others" 🤔

We hope you make one of those discoveries on the couch today about invisible labor and how it plays a role in relational dynamics. 🤓....

Because one of us just discovered the concept of emotional or invisible labor. Guess which one¿😂.

Today's episode had the other laughing in different languages as we say.

On a more serious note, are you truly aware of all the invisible labor that each party contributes to making the home and the relationship work?

Assume nothing. appreciate everything.... and learn to find out what the everything entails for each unique relationship and the parties therein.

Happy Friday.

What's the purpose of a question?

Do you ask to confirm your assumption or do you ask to find out something you didn't know?

That is the question 🤓

These different approaches to asking questions can impact communication in relationships.

Ask us how we know...

Today was all about discussing a question and answer tic that we have in our marriage and how this can impede communication.

Of course this depends on who your partner is. But then, what would be the fun in that if you both spoke and did things the same way 🤔🤔

Are there communication shortcuts that work or don't work for your relationship?

Tell us all about it after you listen in on our latest epi here...👇🏾👇🏾
