✨ In this video, I respond to advice given by Dr. John Delony on The Dr. John Delony Show. A wife called in asking whether it would be okay to have a third child even though her husband is worried about the financial strain and the toll the first year of life takes on a marriage.

Dr. Delony encouraged the wife that it’s okay to move forward with another baby and figure out the money later. While I respect his perspective, I share why I disagree with this approach. I believe that finances, emotional health, and marital stability need to be discussed and prepared for before making such a life-changing decision.

👶 Topics we’ll cover in this video:

• Why financial preparation matters when planning for another child
• The reality of how a baby impacts marriage in the first year
• Healthy ways for spouses to communicate when they don’t agree on family planning
• Why love for children isn’t enough to shield a marriage from stress without preparation

In this powerful and honest episode, we dive deep into the emotional realities behind the phrase "daddy issues" — a term often used jokingly but rooted in real pain. What does it truly mean to grow up without a father? How does the absence or emotional unavailability of a father figure shape a daughter's self-worth, relationships, and identity?

Join us as we explore:
 🔹 The psychological impact of fatherlessness
 🔹 Common signs of the “daddy wound”
 🔹 How media and culture minimize this deep emotional pain
 🔹 The journey to healing and self-awareness

This is not about blame — it’s about truth, understanding, and breaking cycles.

After a terrible marriage that lasted almost ten years, two kids, and nearly a divorce in my second marriage, I want to share how to avoid getting stuck in a relationship you'll regret. My rules aren’t just about relationships; they also help prevent bringing children into the world who end up in broken homes because their parents split up. I'll also talk about the red flags to watch for while following my "5-Year Rules." These rules can help you build a strong, lasting relationship and avoid repeating the mistakes of the past.
