How To Thrive As Parents AND Partners | Therapist Eli Weinstein on Teamwork, Communication, Avoiding Resentment
About this episode
Eli Weinstein shares insights on maintaining strong relationships while navigating parenting challenges.
Feel like you and your partner are ships passing in the night lately? Or keeping a quiet mental scorecard over things like laundry and garbage duty? Maintaining a strong relationship while raising kids isn’t easy—and it’s one of the biggest challenges couples face. So if you’ve ever felt the strain of growing responsibilities, misaligned priorities, or resentments creeping in, you’re not alone. In this episode, we’re joined by Eli Weinstein—licensed clinical social worker, host of The Dude Therapist Podcast, and author of From I Do to We Do. As a father of two (with a third on the way), Eli offers thoughtful, actionable insights on staying connected, communicating effectively, and navigating the evolving dynamics of partnership during the parenting years. Stick around to the end for a sub-sub-recurring segment we’re calling, “Did My Wife Just Hear That Out Loud?”
