Scenario

When couples compete instead of supporting each other's goals

My partner and I are both trying to build creative careers while working day jobs and we thought we'd be each other's accountability partners, but instead we just end up comparing ourselves to each other constantly. When one of us makes progress, the other gets resentful, and when we're both struggling, we just enable each other's excuses.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Two people's individual aspirations are triggering comparison and scarcity thinking instead of mutual encouragement.
