Do you feel like there's a lot of mental gymnastics to relationship anxiety work? Does this feel overly complicated?

Let's take a step back from the details and acknowledge the bigger picture. The work here is to develop faith and trust in yourself.

You can't think your way out of a feeling problem. I'm not here to talk you off a ledge. I'm here to give you the tools either walk away, or take the leap of faith, all on your own.

Is it possible to be with one person for life and still feel something deep and warm between you? I'm sharing stories and wisdom from a 43‑year warm, loving marriage.

Are you stressed by wanting things in your relationship to be equal and fair?

What if doing more at home or in the relationship brings greater spiritual fulfillment? What if the reward outweighs the work?

What if you and your partner need different things, and that's okay? Pursuing what fulfills each of you can improve the whole.

This episode includes stories from my extended family and my own household, plus tools and mindsets to help you release the urge to control outcomes and let what you need come to you.

A postpartum fight with my husband leads to some excellent healing and bonding.

There is a power to forgiving ourselves, and our partners. This does not condone what happened or open ourselves up to being hurt again, but transforms that energy into clarity, love, and peace. Forgiveness emphasizes that you can have peace while still keeping boundaries, holding people accountable, and making meaningful changes in your life.

It starts with owning what's within your control, and what isn't. And continues with sitting down to listen, and what the power of listening can grant you with: perspective, understanding, clarity, and love.

Sometimes the thing we fixate on in our partners is actually something we do, too. What if we responded to our partners the way we want them to respond to us? Magic could happen.

Many of my episodes use my personal stories as reference for lessons and teachings, and today's episode is no different, if maybe even more personal. I'm unscripted and opening up to you about a breakthrough that we've had in our relationship.

My husband and I have different expectations and experiences from our families of origin. Every family has dysfunction, and every family has trauma.

Listen in on our efforts to conquer intergenerational trauma, and refuse to pass down our baggage, and our parents' hurt, and our grandparents' struggles, and so on, to the next generation.
