What if striving for fairness is actually driving disconnection in your relationship? We’ve been sold the idea of a 50/50 partnership—that equal contribution is the key to love—but real life, stress, parenting, and ambition often make that impossible. In this episode, Julie and Yue sit down with husband-and-wife team Nate and Kaley Klemp, authors of The 80/80 Marriage: A New Model for a Happier, Stronger Relationship, to explore a new framework for connection. Drawing from mindfulness, leadership, and high-performance coaching, they share how radical generosity—giving 80% instead of keeping score—can build a stronger, more resilient partnership.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• Why the 50/50 Mindset Can Erode Connection and Foster Resentment

• How Radical Generosity Creates a Thriving Partnership

• The Role of Equity Theory in Relationship Satisfaction

• How to Navigate Key Transitions from Dating to Cohabitation and Parenthood

• Why Shared Success Matters More Than Equal Input

• How Couples Can Go “All-In” Together Without Burning Out

• Practical Ways to Co-Create a Relationship That Grows Over Time
