Episode 3194:
Chalene Johnson shares three lessons she and her husband Bret learned the hard way about becoming a better partner, in marriage and in business together: recruit your partner's interest, focus on their strengths instead of their weaknesses, and understand what triggers a negative reaction in them. She explains how the childhood messages each partner carries shape those triggers, and how naming them turns everyday frustration into understanding. It is practical marriage advice for any couple that wants to work as a team.

Quotes to ponder:
"Couples that stay together don't do it by accident. They work for it."
"No partnership is ever 50/50 all the time."
"When you know what upsets your partner and why, then you'll take things less personal."
