S17: Focus E7: Ménage à Trois

Relationship Workout for Men

In "Relationship Workout for Men," Season 17 Episode 7 titled "Ménage à Trois," Vince delves into the complexities of sharing relationship issues with others outside the partnership. He acknowledges that while it's natural to discuss our lives with confidants, the details of what and with whom we share can significantly impact our relationships. The episode guides listeners through considering the consequences of venting frustrations and seeking advice, advocating for a balanced, constructive approach to such conversations. Vince suggests that sharing with the intention to brainstorm solutions and gain insights, rather than to vilify or seek validation for one's perspective, can be more beneficial for resolving issues. He also touches on the importance of choosing confidants who can remain objective and supportive, potentially including professional help, to foster healthy dialogue and personal growth.

Note: Seasons are designed to be listened to in episode order, starting with episode 1.
