In this episode, we sit down with Abby Eckel, a powerful content creator who highlights some of the most pressing issues women face today—unequal partnerships, the mental load of motherhood, how addiction and mental health disorders give context - not excuses - she gives her opinion on whether you can train someone to change, and discusses the complexities of navigating relationships in a patriarchal society.
Together, we dive into what it means to have a truly equal partnership, why men often perceive equality as oppression, and how societal conditioning plays a role in perpetuating these dynamics. Abby shares her thoughts on weaponized incompetence, the undervaluing of women’s work, and the emotional toll placed on partners in relationships with addiction and mental health struggles.
We also explore the challenges women face when trying to enact change in their relationships, how to balance compassion with accountability, and what minimum standards of care every partnership should strive for. Abby offers candid insights on where the ‘good guys’ are, whether partners can realistically change, and how to manage frustration with people who refuse to act on their issues.
This is a thought-provoking conversation for anyone who has felt the weight of unequal expectations or struggled to communicate their needs in relationships. Join us for a deep dive into the realities of modern partnerships and what we can do to foster change.
