ABOUT THIS EPISODE

S2E8: Identifying Resentment with Counselor Rachel Ayers | "Stop shoulding all over yourself"

What if resentment is quietly building in your relationship

-- and neither of you is talking about it?


In mixed-ability relationships, chronic illness can leave both partners exhausted, guilty, or afraid to admit what they need. Licensed professional counselor Rachel Ayers joins Kodi to unpack resentment in relationships, caregiver burnout, invisible labor, and the unspoken expectations that can drive couples apart.


Learn how to recognize the difference between burnout and resentment, communicate your needs, and build a stronger marriage or partnership when chronic illness changes what's possible. Plus, discover why it's time to stop "shoulding" all over yourself.


Because it's not you against your partner. It's both of you against the illness.
