This episode is the beginning of something new—every few weeks, my husband Gregg will be joining me here on the podcast for an honest, unedited conversation about the moments that shaped our life together.

In this one, we go back to 2007. We had three kids under five, more bills than money, and a dream house that couldn’t hold the weight of what we were carrying. We were tired, disconnected, and quietly becoming strangers. Until one day, Gregg surprised me—with a furnace room.

What he created in that little space helped us find something we didn’t even know we’d lost.

This is the story of how we almost broke, and how we found our way back to each other.

Welcome to Naked. This is Us.
