Description

How do you love your partner better? 

Meg and Jacob O'Neill dive into why knowing each other's love language isn't enough. They share how staying curious about each other's needs and desires creates a foundation for a strong, long-lasting relationship filled with intimacy and closeness.

Meg and Jacob discuss their experiences with long-distance love, gender roles, and the power of open communication. They reveal how small acts, like understanding your partner's favorite meal or how they prefer things organized, can significantly enhance your connection. It's about truly listening and valuing each other's unique preferences.

Through stories of tackling household chores and cooking, they show how stepping out of comfort zones and encouraging each other's growth deepens their bond. Jacob learns to let go of control, while Meg finds new ways to show appreciation.

Meg and Jacob also challenge the idea of rigid formulas in relationships, advocating for flexible frameworks that allow for growth and change. They emphasize attunement, presence, and living in the moment to foster deep connections.

They also riff off on:

  • Meg O'Neill discusses her experience mowing the lawn for the first time, despite never having done it before.
  • Jacob O'Neill acknowledges his control issues, admitting he's a "little bit of a control freak" and learning to surrender some control in relationships.
  • They share stories about their upbringing and how it has influenced their attitudes towards cleanliness and organization.
  • Meg feels undermined by Jacob's constant redoing of her work, leading her to feel like she can't do anything right and that it's not worth trying.
  • Jacob and Meg discuss food preferences and cooking styles, with Jacob preferring simple dishes like steak and vegetables.
  • Meg O'Neill highlights the danger of relying too heavily on labels and formulas in relationships, and instead advocates for attunement and presence.
