Miscommunication in relationships is often more about the stories we tell ourselves than the words we actually say. In today’s episode, we explore how miscommunication can arise when new parents start creating their own narratives based on assumptions, fears, and limited perspectives—especially when a new baby enters the picture.

It’s easy to get lost in these stories, which might not even reflect your partner’s true intentions. These internal narratives can:

• Lead to feeling unwanted or unloved

• Create doubts about your partner’s commitment

• Prevent you from having crucial conversations, leading to misunderstandings

In this episode, we’ll break down why we often see our relationships through different lenses, how these miscommunications lead to unnecessary resentment, and practical tools to begin realigning your narratives for better connection.

Here’s what you’ll learn:

• Why we live in different narratives than our partners and how it causes miscommunication

• The impact of mismatched stories on resentment and negative feelings

• Practical tools to have clearer, more productive conversations

• Real-life examples of how miscommunication plays out and how to address it
