About this episode
The episode discusses the unspoken rules in relationships and the need to renegotiate them.
There are rules in your relationships you never agreed to. Who calls first. Who apologizes. Who does the emotional labor. Nobody wrote them down. But you've been following them for years. And maybe it's time to renegotiate. Join me as we Calm it Down in 3...2...1.
