Ep 175: Why You Are So Critical of Your Partner (Hint: It's Not What You Think)

Today's episode is inspired by a question a client recently put forward… And the answer is not going to be easy for most of you to hear. This client said that she always gives people the benefit of the doubt, trying to offer the most generous assumptions when it comes to their behavior…but when it comes to her partner, she immediately thinks—and says—the worst about his behavior. Why does that happen? This is extremely common in relationships, particularly longer-term relationships. You've not only moved out of the honeymoon phase—when everything they do is the most adorable shit you've ever seen—but you've been with them long enough to build a level of safety and trust. Why are you more critical of your partner than anyone else? Because you think you can say whatever you fucking want and get away with it. Don't think that's true? Hit that play button. I'll show you what I mean.
