This week on the podcast, Ashley and Dino give an update into how Ash has really been feeling since starting her social media fast. She talks about how having the extra time has had her feeling hungry for the Lord and really leaning into and seeking after him. And Dino shares the changes he’s seen in her, as well changes they’ve seen in their family. They break down what prompted this first prolonged social media fast since starting @arrowsandbow and why we need to stop striving. The two also give insight into how they distinguish the difference between working as hard as you can unto the Lord and striving. 

Ashley and Dino are back and this week they’ve taken this show on the road and they’re hyping each other up. They’re discussing what it means to take your thoughts captive – because everything starts with your thoughts. And then the two get into why it's important to constantly be gassing up your spouse, whether it's in your own mind, verbally to them, or in your words, thoughts, and actions. In OG @arrowsandbow fashion, Ash and Dino touch on finding joy in your current circumstances. And they end with a little teaser about what’s to come in next week’s episode.

Piggy backing off of last week’s episode of removing sin from your marriage Ashley and Dino continue the conversation. Dino retouches on how many men will lean towards visual and physical temptation of other women, and then hands the mic to Ash, asking what the female equivalent of that is. Ashley takes it back before the beginnings of @arrowsandbow to when she used to rely on materialism to fulfill her. She touches on how needing to find her identity through things was a barrier between her and Dino, and how stripping all of that away and moving into the trailer reframed her mindset. To end, the two share the ways they are working on building intimacy between each other.

This week on Designed to Last, Ashley and Dino are diving into a topic that’s a little tougher: removing the sin from your marriage. After Dino gives his hot take that references last week’s episode of goal setting, the two open up about how they’ve gone about choosing to be open and honest to each other about their respective sins. What does Dino mean when he says he keeps the tally at zero? How does Ash choose to move through these more difficult moments with love and understanding? What are high walls? And of course, in true @arrowsandbow fashion, the two are always working on taking it to 11.

Ashley and Dino are kicking off episode 2 with @arrowsandbow hot takes of the week, or "hot tracks" as Ash calls them. This week's hot track: noticing your spouse and making them feel seen. Then they dive into the big topic for the week, which is all about goals. The importance of having them, intentionally thinking about them, and above all else, dreaming together as a couple. They share steps for hitting reset on those goals when you're in a rut, and why it's important to keep in mind what things COULD be like while you're sacrificing the things you want now for the things you want most.
