Less Than: The Silent Shift That Ends Marriages
from Divorce with Sam and Leah Hosted by Sam and Leah
In this raw and eye-opening episode, we unpack the subtle but deeply damaging patterns that quietly unravel marriages from the inside out — often long before the word “divorce” is ever spoken. From dismissive communication and financial control to parenting criticism and emotional neglect, these silent shifts don’t always scream abuse, but they slowly chip away at connection, confidence, and self-worth. If you’ve ever felt “less than” in your relationship — less heard, less valued, less respected — this episode will hit home. We cover: The power of micro-invalidations and how they breed resentment Why financial control isn’t just about money — it’s about dominance The emotional fallout of being undermined as a parent How intellectual superiority becomes a subtle form of abuse What happens when praise, affection, and appreciation disappear Whether you’re healing after divorce or starting to recognize red flags in your relationship, this conversation will help you put words to what you've felt, trust your instincts, and remember what you deserve. www.samandleah.com
