I’m joined by Dr. Tracy Dalgleish, couples therapist, author of You, Your Husband, and Your Mother-in-Law, and host of Dear Dr. Tracy, to dive into the messy and emotional dynamics of merging families. You don’t have to be married for this to resonate; these patterns show up in every relationship, and every couple can benefit from understanding them. We break down the biggest myths about in-laws, why boundaries aren’t what people think they are, and how therapy-talk culture has shifted these dynamics. We also unpack listener scenarios around overstepping, wedding-planning chaos, ex-obsessed parents, and competitive siblings—and what needs to shift for MILs, husbands, and wives to finally get on the same team. Grab the book and learn more at drtracyd.com, and follow along at @drtracyd.
