About this episode

What makes a relationship truly great? Does it have to be hard to be meaningful? In today’s video, I speak with Rob Dial, host of The Mindset Mentor podcast, to find answers.

We talk about the difference between the kind of “hard” that strengthens a relationship and the kind that drains it. From navigating challenges as a team to recognizing when effort becomes sacrifice in the wrong ways, this conversation will leave you with a fresh perspective on what it means to build a lasting, fulfilling connection. If you’ve ever wondered how to create a relationship where both people feel understood and safe, you can’t miss this!
