The Relationship Road Trip

This is it, drivers, the final episode of Season 2 of The Relationship Road Trip. We're home! Or we're there! Wherever we are, we're ending our Arc on resilience with some thoughts on how to raise resilient kids (which I guess are cars that go for 250k miles, which really twists our metaphors to new levels). Thank you for listening and supporting us through another season, and we'll be back in February 2022!
