Inspired by her own marriage crisis, Dr. Whetstone created tools to help couples navigate turmoil.

// WHAT WE COVER IN THIS EPISODE //
- Why so many women put all their eggs in the “man basket” and how having a Plan B isn’t about pessimism, it’s about power and self-worth.
- That push-pull dating dynamic we see all too often and how to stop rewarding wobbly, inconsistent behaviour.
- The damage that comes from keeping secrets in relationships, especially the ones in your own head, and how saying it straight can build real connection.
- And this big one: falling for potential. Becky breaks down why people rarely change (maybe 5%!) and how trauma can cloud our judgement.
And so much more!
