Running a household includes childcare, cleaning, cooking, home maintenance, and more.
But each of us brings different skill levels and our own frustrations to these projects when they don't proceed as we expect.
So how can we set aside our reactive behaviors in order to see our household projects through to completion?
On this episode of Destined to Be, we'll walk you through how our old stories come up when we work on projects, causing overwhelm that can be bigger than the task at hand. Plus, how your self-criticalness and perfectionism tendencies can trigger your partner's negative energy.
We'll talk about how to recognize and avoid your triggers, so you and your partner can sidestep the common conflicts when completing household honey-do lists.
Listen in for some strategies to avoid overwhelm, stop the arguing, lighten the mood, and apply Rule 62, so you and your partner can successfully complete your couple's DIY projects.
Are you ready for a more meaningful partnership with your significant other? We have a limited number of spaces in our couple's mastermind coming in October. Reach out to Jeremiah, or Mallory for an application TODAY!
