Ever felt like you're coming in fourth place in your own relationship? In this episode, we’re calling out a common dynamic that quietly kills connection: when your partner isn’t your top priority.

We dive into why so many people say things like “my kids come first” or “work is just crazy right now” — and how those priorities, while understandable, can leave a partner feeling unseen and undervalued. Ryan shares a couple of real-life examples where he found himself behind not just the kids and the job, but the horse. Ouch.

Together, we unpack what it really means to prioritize your partner and why that doesn’t mean neglecting your kids, career, or self.
