Season 1, Episode 19: Compatibilty or Don't do Breakfast at Tiffany's


We talk about how married couples should be compatible and rather than trying to make sure they have ALL common interests, they should make sure they have common values.

We also reference Jordan Peterson's personality report.  It is inexpensive and 2 people can take it separately, then link their results together.

The Understand Myself personality report provides a multidimensional view of your beliefs and aspirations to help you thrive in an ever-changing world.

We are NOT associated with Jordan Peterson or this test. It's just a good tool.

We may not get back to you right away, or ever, because we have jobs, but we might use your comments or answer questions in a future episode.
