In the first session I have with couples, we always go over goals for where they want their marriage to be, what's working and what's not. I've coached over 100 couples in the last 5 years and they have ALL said "we want better communication" and while coaching them, I find that they don't have a communication problem and neither do you. What is it really? Disconnection. Jump into this episode to find out how disconnection leads to communication breakdown, what it looks like, sounds like and how to fix it.

Why do people fear falling out of love?
This fear often stems from a deep-seated anxiety about the future. We all enter relationships with hopes, dreams, and a vision of everlasting love. But as time goes on, we might notice changes in our feelings or the dynamics of the relationship, which can trigger doubts and fears. This fear is not irrational; it’s a reflection of how much we value our relationships and how much we want them to succeed.
In this episode, I dive deep into this topic as well as the marriage retreat that I'm hosting January 24 and 25, 2025 in Granbury, TX.

***Trigger warning*** Infant loss, miscarriage, grief
This week's episode features Kate Carson, a former teacher, engineer and now a love, sex and life transitions coach. Kate talks all about her own grief with late term pregnancy loss, miscarriage and not only keeping your marriage strong through those experiences but also the different secondary experiences that come as a result of those states- lactation after late term pregnancy loss, the sexuality changes that happen because of depression and grief, etc. If you've experienced any of the traumatic circumstances that Kate talks about in this episode, I encourage you to reach out to her for somatic help.

5. Support Each Other’s Parenting Decisions
Consistency in parenting is crucial for a child's sense of security. When parents support each other’s decisions, it provides a united front.

Laughter is a key ingredient in a healthy marriage. It helps diffuse tension and fosters a joyful atmosphere at home.

9. Demonstrate Conflict Resolution Skills
Conflict is inevitable, but handling it well is what counts. Show your children that disagreements can be resolved calmly and respectfully.
