186. Secret Contracts

<p>Welcome to &quot;Resentment-Free Relationships&quot; with Becky Smith! In this episode, we explore the concept of &quot;Secret Contracts&quot; inspired by Kim and Penn Holderness. These silent agreements in relationships, formed through routine, can be both efficient and potential sources of dysfunction. We discuss common triggers like unequal household chores, drawing from personal experiences and reflections. Becky shares her own journey of renegotiating responsibilities, emphasizing open communication. As relationships evolve, she encourages non-judgmental discussions for adapting roles. This week&#39;s challenge: identify and discuss your secret contracts.
