Episode 16 - Men, Women and Invisible Labor with Matthew Fray

“She Divorced Me Because I Left Dishes By the Sink”. That was the title of this week’s guest, Matthew Fray’s heart-wrenching and totally relatable post about the dissolution of his marriage and his subsequent quest to understand what had actually gone wrong. Was it the dish? No. Was it the consistent, daily reminder to his partner that what was important to her was not important to him? Yes. Was it the dish, on top of the laundry, on top of the camp scheduling, on top of the school forms that all fell on her shoulders? Yes. Did Matt love his wife and want to stay married? Yes. For any of us who can relate (ok, all of us)...this episode is a must listen to learn about this journey from a male point of view and all the incredible work Matt is doing to help his fellow man out of this age-old setup which drives a sometimes uncrossable divide in a union.

You can learn more about Matt on his site, Must Be This Tall To Ride, where he shares the incredible efforts he has in play from books to interviews to television opportunities. You can also connect with him on Facebook at @matthewfrayMBTTTR or Twitter/Instagram @mbtttr His story is a cautionary tale, however he is optimistic, sincere and is now singularly focused on helping couples realize how toxic their patterns are to the health of their relationships.
