Nourishing the Mother

NTM 509: Inside Our Bedroom & Beyond: A Candid Conversation With My Husband – Part One


Listen Later

What really holds a relationship together when the mental load is heavy, emotions are high, and life keeps pulling you in different directions? In this raw and intimate conversation, Julie and her husband, Nick, reflect on their journey as a couple — where they’ve struggled, where they’ve grown, and what’s helped them stay connected through it all.

Julie wants you to know: We don’t have all the answers, but we’ve learnt some powerful lessons (often the hard way) about communication, conflict, and creating a partnership that holds space for evolution, difference, and deep love.

Whether you’re in the thick of parenting, navigating mismatched expectations, or just wanting to feel more seen by your partner — this one is for you.

In this episode, we discuss:
- The moments that shaped our relationship and how we’ve grown together through them
- Mental load and how we’ve come to understand and redistribute it in our home
- How we support each other’s personal and professional goals while still showing up in partnership
- What we’ve learnt about conflict — from defensiveness and anger to respectful repair
- The power of taking space, staying curious, and not reacting from assumptions
- How Nick has learnt to read my body language and step towards me — and how I’ve learnt to give him room to process
- The importance of holding respect for the person you love — even when it’s hard
- How the standards we hold for ourselves shape the way we show up for each other
