You know those conflicts where you go from 0 to 100 in no time? Or you say something benign and your partner reacts with rage? It’s likely your inner child is making an appearance. I’ll be honest - when I’ve heard about the “inner child” in the past, I’ve rolled my eyes. But, after recording this episode, I have an entirely new understanding of thi…

SGR 097: 3 Marriage Tips from a Couples Therapist and her Husband with Stranz and Mallory Wolfgramm
What’s more fun than getting a behind-the-scenes look at a couples therapist’s marriage? We’ve had the unique experience of dating our husbands throughout graduate school, while we were learning the do’s and don’ts of healthy relationships. We pulled them along for the ride, shared what we were learning, and practiced exercises with them. I’d say i…

Women often talk about the “mental load.” I, personally, have had this conversation with my husband countless times. It goes something like this: Me: “If I didn’t think of everything that has to get done, it wouldn’t get done. Why do I have to do everything?” Him: “You don’t have to do everything, just tell me what you need me to do and I’ll do it.…

The first year of marriage is the hardest, right? When couples go from dating to living together, they’re suddenly faced with “having to” make it work. Time apart is no longer built into your weekly routine, you don’t go home to cool off after an argument, and you see and speak to each other every day. There are many more opportunities to see your …

Well, 60 episodes ago we talked about 6 common relationship problems that aren’t actually problems. It happened to be the most popular episode so far. Today, we thought we’d revive that with three more myths. We love myth-busting because our perspectives inform what we think, how we feel, and what we do in life. If we view a particular interaction …

Consider the following: “I am more focused on changing my partner, than I am on changing myself.” “If my partner is unhappy, I am incredibly uncomfortable and feel I need to fix or change their emotional state. “I need to sacrifice my own happiness and/or well-being in order to ensure my partner is happy.” If these statements rang true for you, you…

We’ve all heard it. Mid-argument with our partner: “You’re just like your mother!” But, what does that really mean? Why is it so common? We learn how to be in relationships by observing our parents and the adults in our life growing up. We experience love in the ways our parents or caregivers showed us love. The way the important adults in our life…

Do you know what your attachment style is? Each of us develops an attachment style early in life - it’s solidified by about age 3 - that we take with us into future relationships. While we can’t change our style, we can use it to provide context for our thoughts, feelings, and behaviors in relationships. The more we know, the more we can adapt to h…

If you and your partner have been “staying at home” together these past few months, you may have come to a realization: We have no shared hobbies. So many couples are facing this, as the usual hustle-and-bustle has been paused. Gyms, restaurants, and movie theaters have been closed. Spas and salons have been closed. Spending time with friends has b…

When was the last time you asked your partner how they were doing? I mean really took the time, distraction-free, to sit, look them in the eye, and asked. My guess is - probably not recently enough. This conversation should be happening daily. Every day, you and your partner should be sitting down for 15 to 20 minutes to check in with one another. …

Typically, when our opinions differ from those of a friend or family member, we can choose to avoid talking about that topic or come to compromise. Things like politics or what to order for dinner are fairly simple to manage with loved ones. But, what about COVID-19 precautions? You don’t need to talk about them, but you do need to embody the ones …

Most of us have developed some less-than-ideal coping skills recently. Staying up too late. Eating junk food. Having too many coffees or cocktails. Watching Netflix for hours on end. Foregoing your usual workouts. These are stressful times and we’ve got to get through it somehow. This is probably not the right time to start a Whole 30 or overhaul a…

It’s been a tough two months, huh? There’s so much heaviness in life right now from the news, hearing stories from friends and family who have been affected in a myriad of ways, and not knowing when things are going to be “normal” again. It totally makes sense. You may be feeling stressed, overwhelmed, or even guilty for being one of the “lucky” on…

Since we’ve been “staying at home,” we’ve heard from tons of couples that they’re struggling with opposite sex drives. These are couples who don’t usually experience this - their desire levels are typically aligned. But, people react differently to stress. They react differently to ongoing stress. For some, the stress response hits the breaks on de…

Disagreements are challenging to navigate in general, but when you’re both under additional stress they can become explosive. Having the ability to recognize when an argument isn’t going anywhere and you and your partner may just not see eye-to-eye is key. Agreeing to disagree means: We fully heard each other’s position on this issue. We understand…

One of the biggest challenges we’ve heard from couples we work with since quarantine began is managing household and childcare responsibilities. All of a sudden, both of you were working from home. Schools and daycares closed, so the kids were home too. Wow. This has been a huge transition for families. These circumstances lend themselves to increa…

The going has gotten tough. In full transparency, we recorded this episode before the COVID-19 pandemic was a concern here in the U.S., but it certainly feels timely. Using effective communication strategies, supporting one another, and maintaining your rituals of connection are much easier when life is “normal.” Add some additional stressors (thin…

Friends don’t let friends personal growth all over their partners. We love reading, listening to podcasts, and doing online courses. We love to learn and share that knowledge with anyone who will listen. (I mean, we host this podcast…). What we have had to learn not to do, is share this knowledge with our partners when they’re not interested. Often…
