Society teaches us that certain traits should go with certain genders, and we have traditionally been programmed to accept those—but in reality, they aren’t always accurate. Not to mention one person’s idea of a trait that’s traditionally masculine or feminine won’t be the same as another’s. So how do we reframe the way we think about masculine/feminine traits and roles in relationships, regardless of gender identity or relationship preference? Check out this week’s episode to find out what Ellen and I have to say.   Useful Links: http://relationshipschool.com/mrc/ http://relationshipschool.com/training/ http://relationshipschool.com/group/ https://www.gettingtozerobook.com/
