Season 10 Episode 4: Household Roles and Responsibilities in Couples, with Dr. Deborah Brown
Partnerships include many challenges, including how to live with each other. Silent agreements and assumptions can easily lead us down a path to resentment and a lack of generosity. Most of us fall into patterns and gender roles we don’t want but also don’t ever talk about until it all blows up.
Psychotherapist and holistic health provider Dr. Deborah Brown joins Master Certified Coach Melissa Wiggins to talk about how to avoid going from socks on the floor to a sexless, miserable partnership. It takes effort and communication, but she shares simple, practical ways to divide and discuss household responsibilities in ways that provide a framework we can live from and build solid partnerships with equity and respect. Grab a cuppa AND your partner and listen in.

Hello, lassies and lads. Welcome to another episode of Coaching and a Cup of Tea with Mummabear. I have Dr. Brown again, for episode four in this season. If you've been following along, we've been talking about so many different issues that she sees in her practice and the sort of theme of those and how we can help make happy people and happy homes, which makes today's episode super important. Okay, managing a household and partner relationships. So whether you're married or not, doesn't matter. Do you live with another person? And how can you live in a way where you feel seen and equal. So we're going to be talking about how the chores of the home impacts a relationship, whether that is a gender role piece, and also the financial piece of running a home. Hello, Lassie, welcome back.
