On the November 18, 2025 episode of Doing Marriage Well, Paul explores the idea of staying in your own lane—respecting boundaries in marriage, parenting, work, and church. He explains why intervening without authority or invitation causes conflict, and how to recognise true emergencies when stepping in is appropriate. 

Paul offers practical reminders—ask whether it’s your ‘circus’ or ‘monkey,’ avoid unnecessary criticism, and focus on your responsibilities to keep relationships healthier and less stressful.
