490: Irrelationships A Way Out of Dysfunction with Grant H. Brenner

Around 20% of people have reported a major breakdown in one or more relationships during the pandemic. This includes romantic couples, but also work, family, and friend relationships strained by distance, differing viewpoints, and lack of human connection. But at the same time, 27% said their relationship with their spouse or partner got better!

Did the pandemic cause the change or simply reveal what was already there? On this week's podcast, you'll meet a psychiatrist whose private practice and written work focuses on mood and anxiety disorders, and more recently, fixing dysfunctional relationship patterns.

Listen & learn:

• Performer vs. audience dynamics at home
• The "discovery" process of dysfunction
