Is anger a safe emotion to feel in your relationship? Has anger ever been safe to feel?

On today's episode, Steph and Craig dive into the often misunderstood emotion of anger and share how it has surfaced on their healing journeys.

They discuss how past traumas, grief, and personal growth intersect with the expression of anger, and the challenges of navigating it in a healthy way.

They open up about a trip they took to California back in 2018 which involved them rekindling their love for each other, a nude beach, and a debauched anger ceremony on the side of the road in the middle of Arizona.

Craig reflects on the importance of creating safe spaces for exploring intense emotions, while Steph shares a deeply personal story about reconnecting with her inner child and allowing herself to express anger.

Together, they emphasize the need for self-awareness, compassion, and patience as they work through their emotional landscapes, illustrating how the path to healing often involves embracing and understanding difficult emotions.

There's a lot of social norms when it comes to relationships and the vast majority of us have been programmed with them.

But what if those programs are wrong? Worse yet, what if they're actually hurting your relationship?

Steph and Craig recently asked followers on social media for a list of things we all need to start normalizing in relationships and on today's episode they're bringing you the top answers.

How much sex should you be having? Is it ok to sleep in separate beds? Is arguing a sign something is wrong in your relationship?

What about normalizing a woman's cycle? Or, the effects of childhood trauma on a relationship and those you love?

Why is it ok for men to fart but not women?

Steph and Craig are breaking them all down and sharing with you their own personal experiences as well as thoughts on each one.

Join them as they unpack all of these and invite you to question what you've been normalizing and why.

Are you one of the millions of people who've TikTok diagnosed themselves with ADHD? Maybe you fall somewhere on the neurodivergent spectrum and have been trying to make sense of it all.

On today's episode Steph and Craig explore what it's like living with ADHD and being neurodivergent together. Both have discovered they are on the spectrum later in their adult life and have been unpacking the realities for the past several years.

They both share personal anecdotes of what it was like growing up during the 80's and never having clarity around being neurodivergent, as well as the ongoing process of learning more about what it truly means.

Through humor and vulnerability, they highlight the importance of self compassion and understanding while doing their best to embrace their new understanding of living with ADHD.

Do you ever wonder if everything you've been doing to change, heal, and grow is actually worth it?

Today, Steph and Craig are breaking down 7 patterns in people who heal and have resilience after surviving trauma. The list comes from a recent post Dr. Nicole LePera, the Holistic Psychologist, shared on social media. https://www.instagram.com/p/C_WVmZ4SzTP/?igsh=MXdpa3E3emVodTBhcg==

Steph and Craig share with you the 7 patterns and break each one down. Discussing where they're at with each of them and offering up why they're important milestones to bring awareness too.
