Relationship communication can be really hard. In Episode 58, Christine and Asha respond to a listener letter by joint interviewing licensed mental health counselor Jonathan Baxter. Their conversation covers big picture issues and practical strategies related to gender issues, correcting power imbalances, family systems, differing priorities, the challenge of asserting oneself, compassion, coping with resentment, and the easiest tweak to start conversations off on the right foot.
