Reclaiming the Gentle Man

Ep. 59 - You're Supposed to Be Bad at This


Listen Later

None of us come into relationships knowing how to love well, and the gap between not knowing and knowing feels existential when it's love on the line — which is exactly why tiny arguments blow up.


Drawing on Dr. Becky Kennedy's framing of resilience as tolerance for that gap, we get into why the best relationships aren't the ones without conflict — they're the ones where both people learn to sit in the hard stuff long enough to move forward as a team. 


If you've been convinced that struggling means something's broken, this one reframes what the struggle actually means.
