"When it comes to your relationship with yourself, there are so many things that can make it better so that, when you find the right person, you can be the best version of yourself and grow together with them."

May and Chase Chewning

May joins Chase on this special episode to answer listener questions on the topic of relationships!

Listen in as Chase and May discuss why busy entrepreneurs should build their work schedule around dedicated quality time with their partner instead of the other way around. They talk about exploration and independence as being two vital keys to keeping their own relationship fresh through the years.

They also offer advice on communicating with a partner who gets out of hand or is acting inappropriately in a social setting, whether their behavior is a one-off or has been recurring for quite some time.

Finally, Chase and May give their two cents on the question of the “right” time to have a baby and why it’s extremely important to consider male fertility when having a conversation around childbirth.

Powerful Quotes

While I do like doing things that are routine, together, I also think it’s really important to step out of your routine sometimes and go on an actual date. ~May

Make you and your partner a priority first and then build the rest of your work, as much as you can, around it. ~Chase
