Episode 51 - Marriage Counselling for Parents

My husband and I talk to a renowned couples therapist about marriage and personal growth while parenting. The wonderful Esther Boykin, LMFT weighs in on how to support connection between partners and within the entire family. We also talk about being naked around our kids and how to handle parenting disagreements without resentment. She also tells us the 2 most important elements that will help us be better partners and better parents. Hint: it's all about working on ourselves first.

It's a Q&A Happy Hour featuring great food, great drinks, and great conversation with real psychotherapists and mental health professionals. The goal is to remove some of the stigma and mystery from the process of psychotherapy and rewrite the narrative on what mental health and therapy are really all about.
