Your relationship expectations could be holding you back | Stephanie R. Yates-Anyabwile (re-release)
04 Oct 2025
What if the secret to a happy relationship isn’t following the rules, but rewriting them? In this refreshing talk, couples therapist Stephanie R. Yates-Anyabwile explores why letting go of traditional societal expectations of romantic relationships — like sharing the same routines or even, in some cases, living together — can help couples embrace their individuality, reduce conflict and build stronger, more fulfilling connections.TED Talks Daily is nominated for the Signal Award for Best Conversation Starter Podcast.
