In this solo episode, I’m sharing a powerful revelation I had through marriage counseling—a moment that helped me see myself more clearly in my communication with my husband. For years, one trigger phrase would shut me down or start an argument: “There you go interrogating me again.” What did that really mean? Why did it bother me so much?
