When is it not really about who does the dishes or the laundry?

The Steph & Craig Show

On today’s episode, Steph & Craig tackle a big issue in relationships: What’s the difference between pointing out your partner's imperfections and things you'd like them to change vs. nagging them and trying to control them to become the partner you want?

They discuss how to see the difference between the two and how they navigate the fine line that can exist in this space.

Steph & Craig also discuss the significant role society has played in shaping their relationship and the roles they each play.

They also respond to a listener question regarding emotional monitoring.

Tune in and get ready because there’s a good chance you’re going to be activated and fired up by the end. Hopefully in a good way.
