Private Practice

 Private Practice is a spin-off of Grey's Anatomy with an office full of doctors with different specialties.  Charlotte & Violet are just 2 of about 8 doctors in the practice, but those that I can relate to these two theories easiest.

Charlotte - Path Goal Theory
  Charlotte is very path goal oriented.  Her and Cooper are getting married and she is taking  the necessary steps to get there.  THey have had a few relationship setbacks, but she is wearing the ring (a big step in the process) and taking the steps to the wedding.  Also, in her job she has the goal in mind and she might give a motivational speech to her team, but in the end the goal is met.

 Violet - LMX
  Violet is a therapist in the practice.  She is very relationship oriented.  Whenever there is a problem she always tries to get everyone's buy-in in the situation before she decides anything about it.  As a therapist she helps to make her patients understand  by going through the process together, not forcing them to talk through it without any emotional attachment for it to be easier.
