In this episode, we explore the pervasive issue of resentment in couple relationships, particularly among parents. We discuss its roots in unexpressed emotions and decision-making conflicts, emphasizing the importance of vulnerability, active listening, and mutual understanding to resolve underlying issues and prevent resentment from taking hold. Here is what we cover in the show: 

• Resentment often arises from feelings of being undervalued or unheard 
• Parenting pressures can exacerbate feelings of resentment 
• Major life decisions often become breeding grounds for resentment 
• Vulnerability and transparency are essential for healthy conversations 
• Mutual understanding plays a key role in decision-making dynamics 
• Listening without defensiveness fosters connection and heals rifts 
• Conflict can be an opportunity for growth and intimacy 
• Practical insights for managing resentment in relationships offered
