Would you be surprised to learn that couples who say they believe in gender equality in relationships struggle more than couples who hold traditional gender roles?
In this week’s episode of Tripping Over Love, we talked with Elizabeth Earnshaw, therapist and author of Till Stress Do Us Part: How to Heal the #1 Issue in Our Relationships, about what is really going on with gender roles.
In this advice-packed conversation, we explore:
The role stress plays in breaking down connection between partners
What’s wrong with how we’re (not) handling our stress
Why couples misread each other under pressure—not because they don’t care, but because stress narrows perception
How relief and reconnection can come from rituals that complete the stress cycle
Why all-consuming jobs, especially in “big law” firms, are so damaging to relationships
We discuss the real and practicable skills that can take stress down a notch in your relationship, and save a lot in therapy bills ;-)
