Eps. 33: The Other Woman
What happens when the “other woman” in your marriage is not another person, but a career, dream, sport, or passion demanding more and more of your spouse? Doc and Crystal look back at the 13 years professional track and field shared their marriage, including intense travel, solo parenting, performance pressure, feeling second-best, and the challenge of separating identity from achievement. It is an honest conversation about supporting a spouse’s ambition without letting the marriage survive on whatever time and attention are left over.
