Summary

This week on the podcast, in the conclusion of a 2-part series, the Gentleman Consort and I discuss getting to decide what our relationship looks like, how we’ve grown since we began dating, and what we love most about each other.

| 0:28.0 | Hello, my chickens. |
| 0:29.6 | I am excited for you all to hear these two episodes that I recorded with my partner |
| 0:37.6 | where we talk about our relationship, thought work, what it's like to date a coach, his thoughts about coaching, how |
| 0:46.1 | thought work shows up in our relationship. We recorded these quite a while ago and |
