Want to strengthen your relationship but don't know where to start? After 100+ episodes, host Shawna Rodrigues finally brought on the guest that you are likely more curious about. This week she sat down with her husband Robie Lawrence to model what vulnerable conversation really looks like - including his initial resistance to being a guest and having this conversation. Using their downloadable framework, they explore topics many couples struggle to discuss: personal growth, emotional connection, and shared challenges.

In this intimate first episode, Robie opens up about his journey from reluctance to discovery, demonstrating how pushing past discomfort can lead to profound connection. Through stories about their first year of marriage, supporting each other's passions (like Robie's dedication to golf), and navigating challenges together, they show what's possible when couples create space for honest dialogue.

Perfect for couples starting their year or seeking deeper connection, this episode provides both practical tools and inspiration for having your own relationship-strengthening conversations.
