Summary

Compromise is more than just giving in; it's a form of adaptability and a demonstration of love. It's about sharing resources, not just material but emotional and mental as well, within a partnership. We can think about our compromises as a form of exploring non-attachment, letting go of some desires for the greater good of the relationship. But how do you know when it's your ego getting in the way, or when it's a boundary you really need to hold onto? And what about the issue of the one-sided over-compromising and taking on too much? In this episode, Hollis and Kimmy continue the Relationship Series by discussing the art of compromise. They’ll get into the ways in which we can navigate compromise without harboring resentment, and the importance of upholding integrity, values, and self confidence in the face of compromise. They offer insights and practical tips for finding a balance that works for both you and your relationships.
