In this episode of The Power of Partnership Podcast, therapist, author, and relationship expert Dr. Julie Hanks shares how she brings Riane Eisler’s cultural transformation theory into homes, workplaces, and faith communities. Drawing from her research on the creative productivity of mothers, Julie developed the Partnership Model of Family Organization, an eight-part framework for building equality, connection, and care into daily life.

Julie discusses how she runs her therapy clinics with a partnership mindset, leads from empathy, and empowers her staff to thrive as whole people. She also explains how shifting family structures toward partnership can shape future generations to value equality, peace, and collaboration—making partnership the default in relationships, business, and society.
