In this episode, I explore my mixed feelings about the statement "relationships are hard,"

In that this message is often served to people who are already doing more than their share in relationships, and it justifies their labor.

What's the line between experiencing challenges and feeling like you're constantly on an uphill climb? 

I talk about what I do in relationships

(that I hear many of my clients do, too)

that have made my romantic relationships hard, and where this comes from for me.
