In this episode of The Genius Life, Max Lugavere interviews Dr. Tracy Dalgleish, a clinical psychologist and author, about the often-unspoken conflicts arising from in-law relationships and their impact on marital stability and overall well-being. They discuss the societal expectations of family connection versus the reality of intergenerational differences and unmet expectations, particularly focusing on the dynamics between a husband, his wife, and his mother. Dr. Dalgleish introduces her five-step VAULT method (Values, Aspirations, Understanding Triangles, Limits and Boundaries, Take Action) for setting healthy boundaries and improving communication within the couple and with extended family. The conversation also explores common sources of marital conflict, the importance of self-awareness, managing emotional responses, and strategies for initiating difficult conversations, emphasizing the need for connection, understanding, and flexibility in navigating family relationships.
