    14. Chit-Chat: To Assume in Your Relationship Makes a What?

    We've all heard that phrase- "To assume makes an donkey out of u and me", right? Or something along those lines, anyway 😉 Why, then, do we so often assume things within our relationships?

    Skating along assuming your communicating love to your partner is just not going to cut it! When was the last time you checked in to make sure that what you're giving out is also being received?

    Join us for this Chit-Chat through the times we've assumed we've been showing each other love, but have really been missing the mark. We challenge YOU to take an intentional moment this week to check in with your partner and make sure that you're really catering to their love needs.

    12. Chit-Chat: Balancing Mental Load Within Relationships

    12. Chit-Chat: Balancing Mental Load Within Relationships

    Do the phrases "Tell me if you need me" or "Let me know if I can help" immediately give you a stress response? Ever find yourself so overwhelmed with invisible tasks that you can't think straight or express what needs to be done? What you're experiencing here is called "Mental Load"- the invisible and cognitive sister of "Work Load".



    Imbalanced Mental Load is a concept common to couples, but a phrase unfamiliar to many. We wrestled with tension for years within our relationship before we stumbled across this framework that has transformed the way we navigate responsibility within our household.

    This week we explore what "Mental Load" is, how it might be playing out within your relationship and some practical ways in which you can start navigating this imbalance with your partner.
