We discuss the dynamics of accountability and communication in partnerships. This convo highlights the fears women have about being less agreeable and the necessity of asking for what you need in your relationships. Through our own personal situations we explore how assumptions have led us to misunderstandings and we discuss the importance of recognizing the mental load carried by each individual within a partnership. We share strategies that have worked for us in regards to managing household tasks and emphasize the significance of open dialogue to foster a supportive and balanced partnership.Links & Resources:BETTERHELP: 10% off first month at: http://betterhelp.com/herselfLet’s connect!HERSELF PATREON: https://www.patreon.com/herselfpodcastJoin our exclusive community for bonus episodes, extra video content, book club and more!HERSELF INSTAGRAM: http://instagram.com/herselfpodcastMEET AMY: http://instagram.com/ameskieferMEET ABBY: http://instagram.com/abbyrosegreenThis episode was brought to you by the Pivot Ball Change Network.
