Cell phones, television, computers — they all have their place. It's how we can communicate + connect with each other. But can technology help or hurt your relationship? In today's new episode, we're giving you 4 ways to help make technology work FOR you + not against you. The electronic devices that you use on a daily basis are essential tools like anything else; a tool that can be constructive just as easily as it can be destructive — its all in how you use it. Ask yourself this question: how can technology be a positive influence instead of affecting the relationship in a negative way?

In honor of Autism Awareness Month, we're talking about something we've never discussed on any public platform — our emotional journey of how we as parents handled our son's diagnosis with autism + how we continue to navigate as a couple by parenting together. We've been challenged with some of the toughest seasons of our lives but have also received the greatest gift imaginable along with some valuable life-lessons. We are so blessed + honored to be able to share our story with you.

Are you simple, or are you complex? Often times we see our relationships fall into pits of complexity vs. simplicity. The 80/20 rule leads us to believe that most men are seen as having a simple + straightforward mindset, while women are seen as having a more complex mindset. But is this sweeping generalization even true in today's society? If men + women view life with completely different perspectives, how can they see eye-to-eye on important issues? On this week's episode of The PnJ Podcast, we're digging in to this controversial topic + voicing our own individual opinions on how this affects our relationship + so many other relationships around the world. You may find that you agree with one side versus another, or maybe you can equally see both sides of the spectrum. Either way, we hope this inspires you to have your own discussion with your significant other  to find your happy medium. Ask yourself this question: are you willing to open yourself up to your partner's frame of mind regardless of whether it's simple or complex?

"I wish I was already married."

"I wish we already had kids." 

Are you constantly rushing through life "wishing" it was the future? Is life really going to be better/easier once you get there? In today's episode, we talk about how we as a couple found ourselves wishing our relationship was already in the next phase + how we discovered a better appreciation for the season we are currently in right now. If you have ever found yourself wishing the days away in your life + in your relationship, THIS is the podcast episode for you! Ask yourself this question: what is the one thing you have been wishing to do in the future that you could do right now?

In celebration of Jenny's 35th birthday AND our 10th podcast episode, we'd like to take a moment to pause + reflect on everything that has happened until now. It's important to ask ourselves how to take ownership of it all, ourselves + our relationships. In today's very special episode, we talk about 3 things: owning your past relationships, owning the relationship you're currently in + owning your future relationships. It's time to take ownership of where you came from, where you are right now + where you are headed! There is such freedom in owning those 3 things. Ask yourself this question: do you own your relationship, or does your relationship own you?
