Road of Life Podcast Episode 95

🚫 ‘I'm not the only one, my mom agrees you’re wrong, too!’ 🚫

Sound familiar? In this fiery episode of The Road of Life Podcast, we tackle the toxic habit of inviting other people into your relationship conflicts and why it’s the fastest way to erode trust, create resentment, and turn minor spats into nuclear wars.

🔥 The ‘Dodgeball Effect’: Why recruiting friends/family as “allies” backfires spectacularly.

🔥 Awkward aftermath: How Aunt Linda still thinks your spouse is a jerk (long after you’ve made up).

🔥 Biased advice trap: Why your divorced buddy’s “wisdom” is relationship poison.

🔥 What to do INSTEAD: Including the *3-step repair ritual*

We’ll unpack:

✔️ Why venting to your basketball buddy = planting landmines in your marriage.

✔️ How to spot your own triangulation patterns (even when you feel “justified”).

✔️ The magic question to ask before sharing anything about your partner.

✔️ When to seek professional support (hint: we’re here for this exact reason!)

PSA: If you’ve ever texted a friend mid-fight - this episode is your intervention. Protect your relationship like Fort Knox.
