When You’re Changing and Your Partner Isn’t
Manage episode 499516243 series 2681373
This week on ShrinkChicks, Em and Jen talk about how to grow together, even as life throws you curveballs like new babies, career shifts, mismatched speeds of change, and navigating personal growth when your partner isn’t quite there (or isn’t trying).
They explore what it means to walk in the same direction (even if at different paces), how to reconnect after disconnection, and the moments that challenge us to ask: Do I bail too soon—or overstay in discomfort? Their conversation spans the anxiety of becoming new parents, resentment in partnerships, navigating infertility and isolation, and finding joy in family life—especially in a world that doesn’t always celebrate all types of families. Plus: why joy is protest, what to know about prenups, and why “clear is kind.”
Tune in to gain insight, awareness, and action! PS: Fast forward to around 11:30 to skip the intro and get straight to today’s content.
