Annual Relationship Review
Manage episode 407450733 series 3560372
Valentine’s Day is in the air. And whether you consider yourself a romantic or not, let’s do a quick status check on your relationship with your partner.
Does your relationship with your partner feel fantastic? Or is it weighed down by a growing list of resentments? Maybe you’d consider your relationship more of an afterthought…something that gets your time and attention once in a blue moon?
It’s no secret that kids bring on changes in relationships.
Sometimes, those changes are an evolution, a deepening of an important bond with your partner in childrearing.
But too often, the all-consuming nature of modern parenting leaves this important relationship starved for attention. It starts to languish.
So this week, I’m going to share with you how a seemingly unromantic practice borrowed from the corporate sphere – the Annual Review – can strengthen your relationship and diffuse resentment.
If you’re looking to keep your relationship on track (or get it back on track), despite kids and demanding jobs, this episode is a must-listen.
