05. Rituals of Connection
Rituals are the glue that keeps couples together--especially important in these crazy COVID times. How we spend the Holidays or how we greet each other when we come home from work are unique flavours that form the "culture" of our relationship, showcasing our values, and creating a sense of shared meaning that makes life worth living--and our partner and family relationships worth having.

02. Down and Dirty with Domestic Duties
Just like a cigar is not always a cigar, a dish is not always just a dish. Chores in a household and how we approach them are often highly symbolic and bring up powerful emotions, for example, clashing with traditional gender norms we didn't know we have, or whether we feel cared for in our love language. Rachel and Richard Tatomir (MA, Canadian Certified Counsellor) discuss with their friends John Welsh and Katie Thompson how to divide up domestic duties, like dishes, in a way that promotes fairness and prevents hurt feelings.

01. When you are triggered by your partner
Sometimes your partner will say or do things that get under your skin and are very reminiscent of things that happened to you as a child. Rachel and Richard discuss how to have a productive conversation about it rather than get trapped in an automatic cycle.
