Episode 5: Clean Your Side of the Glass

In every relationship, there’s a kind of invisible window between you and your spouse. And over time, life fogs it up—misunderstandings, conflict, stress, assumptions. That glass gets harder to see through.

Most people try to get their spouse to clean their side of the glass. But real change begins when you take ownership of your own.

In this episode, Brett shares:

  • Why clarity is more important than control

  • A visual metaphor that will stick with you

  • How to use the 4 R’s (Regulate, Reassure, Reveal, Repair) to clean your side

  • Why your clarity often invites your spouse to respond in kind

    This conversation will help you stop waiting, start showing up, and rediscover what’s possible in your relationship—one honest wipe at a time.
