Wake Up Your Relationship!

In today's episode we will be discussing some topics that when I had originally made the episodes back in season 3 they were about how to be aware of the influence or power that these things can hold on you and by virtue, on your relationship. In this episode I don't want to just stick to discussing the simple side of these challenges but to discuss them as a form of abuse. I have found abuse, even small levels of it, can be pervasive and imperceptible by a couple. So lets look again at the episodes; Substances, Power of Money, and Time for a Break.
