#90 - Embracing a Partner Who’s Differen...

Sarah Yudkin
About this episode

In this episode, Chelsea and I dive into the idea that true relationship strength often comes from embracing differences rather than being exactly the same.

 

We cover:

  • Chelsea’s journey of overcoming internalized beliefs that partners must think alike
  • How she learned to appreciate her husband's contrasting qualities
  • How differences can nurture a deeper love, personal growth, and a more expansive understanding of what it means to truly connect with someone

…and more
