This is my experience so far, with a caveat— I have absolutely adopted certain habits of his that already align with my deepest values. Regular physical training being the biggest shift. The thing is, it literally goes both ways in a value-aligned union. He has adopted many habits of mine as well (mostly re: nutrition, bodywork, self-care) that align with his deepest values. Sometimes it takes the thing being lived out right in front of us for us to make a real change.
