Asking your partner about what happened in their therapy session is, regardless of their reason, basically an ask for more vulnerability.  It’s normal for partners to be interested in what’s going on for the other.  Often we just want to know that one of us isn’t outgrowing the other.  The potential for boundary crossings is great here, but so is the potential for relational growth as a couple.  This week, Rebecca, Jules and Vickey discuss the nuanced differences between curiosity and a need for control, how and why you should have a meta conversation around this, and the key to ensuring you grow together as a couple rather than growing apart.
