Ever found yourself silently tallying up who's done more? More parenting, more chores, more giving?

Or feeling a flash of resentment when your partner heads out for drinks and you're still knee deep in the chaos? You're not alone. When life gets full and stress kicks in, it's easy for couples to slip into the me versus you mentality, competing for time, energy and space. And before you know it, you're not working together anymore. You're just surviving side by side.

But there's a better way... when you shift into a team first mindset, everything gets lighter. You argue less, support each other more, and start making decisions that give you both more time, more peace, and more energy to actually start enjoying each other again.

In today's episode, we're sharing four simple mindset shifts that move your relationship from me to we.

Let's dive in.

Ever had that moment where you agreed to something, maybe with work, friends or family, and then realised it was going to cost you in time, energy or connection with your partner? That sinking feeling of, oh, I probably should have checked in first or this is going to throw off our weekend, it happens to all of us. But when it starts happening regularly, your relationship can end up feeling like it's always coming second.
