Is attraction enough to make love last? In this episode of the Love and Leadership Podcast, Trent and Star Postell get real about what long-term love actually looks like after 25 years together, 20 years of marriage, and a decade of building businesses side by side.
From the butterflies of a college romance to navigating empty nests, trauma, unmet expectations, and the daily choice to stay committed, this conversation goes deep into the honest truth about what it takes to make love last.
In this episode, you will discover:

Why attraction gets you in but commitment is what keeps you together
How unspoken expectations silently destroy relationships
What love languages really look like when they shift across seasons
Why intimacy is about so much more than the physical
The power of grace, communication, and choosing love as a daily action
How to leave a legacy of love for your children and those who come after you
