Listener Question About Protect Your Wife Podcast (Listener Is Random Definitely Not My Husband)

New podcast based on a listener question! This listener is totally not my husband sending me a voice message on his drive home or anything! In this episode, I respond to the question, "What about when your wife just wants you to listen? Doesn't trying to move the conversation along and cheer her up, as your suggested in your Protect Your Wife podcast, make her feel unheard and upset?" I distinguish between the different kinds of problem solving and the myth of catharsis.
