Patience & Presence

In today's episode, Russell delves into the essence of patience and presence in relationships, especially during menopause. Emphasizing the transition from enduring discomfort to maintaining emotional regulation, he discusses how patience can be perceived differently by men and women. While men often view patience as an effort to remain calm, women may see it as withdrawal, leading to misunderstandings. The conversation highlights the importance of presence over silence, and how both partners can foster a more supportive environment by understanding each other’s experiences.
