Listen Later

There are a number of things that couples make assumptions on that have been passed on over the years and have now become more myth that fact. We are a new generation, always innovating in industry, tech, and reinventing who we are as individuals. In that environment wouldn't relationships have to evolve as well? YES! But most see marriage as a fixed thing.

In this episode we are LIVE in the home of Lindsey and Elliot, to explore how their own relationship has evolved as they have and how they see marriages as a whole transformed and what myths can now be BUSTED! As well as the idea that having major differences as individuals is something to overcome or change about the other person. When they can be leveraged to grow you even more!
