Description
Believe it or not, the topic of hobbies - especially stereotypical "men's" hobbies - makes an outsized appearance in both individual and couples' counseling (I'm looking at you, golf!).
How is it possible that leisure activities can cause such turmoil in so many partnerships? Well, the conversation around hobbies often reflects bigger issues in our marriages, and can lead to bigger issues in our marriages, such as:
who "owns the time" in the partnership
mom guilt vs. dad guilt (aka, not a thing)
default parenting
internalized productivity culture
If you've ever:
felt like you can't possibly do something, just for the fun of it, because there's so much to do and other people need so much from you
felt like even if you DID get time, you don't have "a thing" and wouldn't know where to start
felt like your partner thinks that their time is more valuable than yours
burned with resentment when your husband joins another sports league
felt like you've lost your sense of self
wondered if you might be a vampire, only allowed to have fun before the sun comes up or after the sun goes down (just me???)
This episode is for you!
Please enjoy, share with a friend (and make a plan to start a hobby together! "Lunch" is an option!), and leave us a 5 star rating and review.
