The holiday season can put a lot of strain on relationships. In fact, did you know that January is considered "divorce month"? Relationships break down for so many reasons during this time.

Today we have a special episode for the Outlouder (or a person in your life) who might be going through some relationship things right now, because you're not alone.. even the celebrities are going through it!

In this episode, we unpack a celebrity divorce dilemma about the labor imbalance that can occur for women in their households. Whether or not a couple or both parents can both have "big" careers, the concept of the lead parent and how that role often falls on women.

Plus, how does a relationship change when a baby enters the equation? It's a conversation that you will definitely want to hear.
