Marriage is a beautiful thing. It offers the gift of moving you into the healthiest version of you, but it has the potential to derail you if you’re unwilling (or unable) to take a hard look in the mirror.

Today, we dive into my personal journey regarding the unhealthy aspects of how my marriage caused me to slowly withdraw from life…  with the hopes you’ll be able to catch certain cycles in your own relationship and disrupt them before they create a destructive momentum that’s hard to come back from.

In this episode you'll learn:

• The “Island effect” most marriages go through in their first few years.
• How to identify and disrupt codependent tendencies.
• Why it’s important to catch the “little things”, and take action on them ASAP.
• What you need to do to consistently move your marriage in the direction you ultimately desire.
• Why I haven’t posted a new episode in six months.

David Peralta is a spiritual teacher, coach, and creator of The Soul Centered Founder. Since 2019, he’s been helping impact-driven entrepreneurs build 6- and 7-figure businesses by aligning themselves with their soul’s purpose.

He’s spent over 20 years studying Zen Buddhism, eastern spirituality, and Christianity, and learned the science of how to awaken the soul directly from a spiritual master named Sri Kaleshwar in Southern India.

For years, David worked as a sought-after SEO and content marketing consultant. But despite the professional success, he lacked the level of fulfillment he'd always envisioned for himself. This spilled over into his family life, where he struggled to be the loving husband and father I knew I could be.

But after a series of profound spiritual awakenings, David realized that he needed to stop living a life based on fear and false expectations, and start living a life centered in the soul. Once he began to do so, he experienced miraculous levels of success across all areas of his life—and a complete transformation in his relationships.

Now, he helps others to open their hearts and align themselves with the wisdom and power of the soul—so they can create a lasting impact and become who they are meant to be.

In this episode you'll learn:

• David’s journey. How an experience at 14 years old began a life-long spiritual journey.
• Why spirituality plays a key role in men’s identity.
• How to “hold offense” and be open to all religions.
• What is unconditional love, and is it possible for humans to attain it?
• How changing for the better ripples into the next generation.
• Why it takes time to integrate spiritual experiences into our lives.
• How we can integrate in a way that solidifies our experiences.
