In this heartfelt and refreshingly honest episode, we sit down with Tracy Proud, founder of Nest Counselling and specialist in relationship therapy, to talk about the unique challenges that come with working, living, and raising a family alongside your partner. Tracy shares why communication breakdowns are so common, especially for couples who work together and offers practical advice on how to protect both your relationship and your business.

We dive into:

• Why traditional weekly therapy might not be enough (and the power of immersive retreats)
• How to set clear boundaries between work life and home life
• Strategies to manage resentment and avoid emotional burnout
• The "Four Horsemen" communication habits that can harm your relationship and how to fix them
• How to keep the romantic connection alive (even when the laundry and business admin pile up)

Tracy also opens up about her personal story: from growing up with adversity to building a thriving practice that helps couples reconnect and rebuild.

If you work with your partner, feel stuck in endless work-talk loops, or just want to strengthen your connection, this episode is packed with wisdom, humour, and tools you can start using today.
