The Problem With Perfect

Everyday Habits That Build Stronger Relationships


Listen Later

Season 7 is here! šŸŽ‰ Since launching The Problem with Perfect in September 2019, we’ve released over 300 episodes and connected with listeners in 11 countries. Thank you for being part of this amazing journey!

We’re kicking off Season 7 with a conversation that applies to every relationship in your life—romantic, family, or friendship. Inspired by psychologist Mark Travers’ article ā€œThe 5 Weekday Habits of the Happiest Couples,ā€ we’re breaking down five simple daily habits that help relationships thrive:

  • Start the day with a shared routine
  • Send thoughtful check-ins during the day
  • Take individual reset moments
  • Prioritize daily ā€œus timeā€
  • End the day with a connection check-in

Along the way, we share our own stories, challenges, and why these habits matter for connection, not perfection.

šŸ’” Challenge for you this week: Choose one of these habits and practice it intentionally—whether with your spouse, a friend, or even just yourself.

Listen in as we celebrate the start of Season 7 and rediscover that the happiest relationships are built in the small, everyday moments.
