Resentment can quietly build in marriages when the mental load and domestic labor fall unevenly on one partner. What starts as frustration over unwashed dishes or forgotten tasks often spirals into a cycle of expectation, disappointment, and resentment that erodes intimacy.
In this episode, I sit down with educator and advocate Abby Eckel, a former Fair Play facilitator, who helps women dismantle the cultural conditioning that keeps them carrying more than their share. Abby brings her deep understanding of how societal messages shape our beliefs and offers strategies for releasing resentment, setting boundaries, and raising standards in marriage.
Together, we unpack the difference between a partner who is simply clueless and one who refuses to care, and we explore what it looks like to reclaim your power, live authentically, and create a partnership that reflects your deepest values.
If you’ve ever felt unseen, unheard, or overwhelmed by the weight of doing it all, this conversation will remind you that you’re not alone — and that freedom from resentment is possible.
