Have you ever assumed you already knew how your partner was going to react?
In this special episode, Greg takes over the mic to share a husband's perspective on one of the biggest traps couples fall into: getting stuck in outdated stories about the people we love.
Drawing from his own experiences navigating marriage, parenting, dirt biking, golf, and family life, Greg explores how old assumptions can quietly create resentment, avoidance, and disconnection.
If you've ever caught yourself thinking:"I already know how this conversation is going to go.""There's no point bringing it up.""Why bother asking?"...this episode is for you.
