You’ll learn a lot😌
I seriously love this podcast. Coming in to the episode, my intention is not for how to improve my relationship with money (because there’s so many interviews that’s being done on that with Ramit already), but how to improve the way I do relationship period. And boy, oh boy, do I learn a lot. I want to give a specific part of the first episode that gives me the insight that I needed, so SPOILER ALERT for those who haven’t listen to it. Listen to it first, then come back to continue reading this review. Now that’s out of the way, let’s talk specifics. There’s a moment where the husband is just lecturing his wife over, and over, and over again, instead of emphatizing with her. And in my life, I’m guilty of that as well. Let me tell you why me and some people do that, so that you might understand where are those people coming from. As an undergraduate in psychology, I really enjoy learning on human nature. So much so that I pride my self when I read all the original works of the early psychiatrist. I find joy and fullfilment in enhancing my conceptual framework. But sometimes that comes at a cost. Because I have this mental presuppositions on how human behaves, I tend to assume that I understand other people and acts as if I don’t have to listen. I love when Ramit pointed out that couple tend to have the assumption that they understand their partner that’s why they tend to not ask question and listen, when they clearly have no idea how the other thinks and feels. But other than that, I love how Ramit pointed out his own mistake; that even he has his own assumption, and we see how he manage to challenge it and listen to the husband. I really love that honesty, because it makes me comfortable knowing that even the person I’m learning from (in this case Ramit) is not a deitu that can’t make mistakes. I love learning from people who recognize their own flaws and try to rectify it. It makes me feel connected, and that I’m not alone in this journey. Lastly, I want to end it with a word from Gottman Institue that captures the essence of this episode: “Understanding precedes advice” or in this case “Listening precedes lecturing”. Thank you Ramit for this wonderful, raw and human way to talk about the things that matters in developing our rich life. Can’t wait for the next episode🔥

Just greatly enjoy the conversations, the comments that Ramit makes during, the level of intimacy, the way it’s produced with music, etc. It’s Monday now and I refreshed my feed ten times before realizing new releases are out on Tuesday.. ;)

Since I deleted my social media I have been missing learning from Ramit, and these couples segments were my favourite! Thankful for a new platform to learn from Ramit!

I’ve been waiting for Ramit to put out a podcast for a long while and it doesn’t disappoint! I love the combo of psychology, money, and relationship topics with a respectful tone. He helps the people on the show without shaming or belittling them, which is very refreshing. Keep up the great content!
