In part three of Us Unfiltered, I explore how power dynamics quietly shape a marriage: who leads, who decides, who sets the tone.
These patterns usually come from what we saw growing up, and without realizing it, they create a one-up/one-down dynamic that erodes trust and connection.
Too much independence can turn partners into high-functioning roommates instead of a true team.
I talk about why every contribution counts, why control blocks intimacy, and how “keeping the boardroom out of the bedroom” matters more than most couples realize.
I share a moment in my own marriage where choosing presence over defensiveness shifted everything.
