Outpacing Each Other
When you begin your relationship with your significant other, there are certain characteristics or qualities that brought you together. Those qualities change over time, and can either change and grow for the better, or they remain the same or change for worse.
Today we discuss the importance of continuing to grow and change forward individually, and together as a couple. We talk about what happens when one person grows, but the other does not. Should the person growing push the other to start improving, or continue working on themselves hoping the other will take initiative? What areas of growth/health are the non-negotiables?
Listen in to see what our take is on this and what our experiences have been.
