Our guest today is Nancy Perpall, a unique professional who has transitioned from a critical care nurse to a divorce attorney. Her diverse career has equipped her with a deep understanding of conflict resolution, which she has used to secure the best outcomes for her clients. As the former Chair of The Supreme Court of Pennsylvania's Domestic Relations Rules Committee, she has been a strong advocate for promoting conflict resolution through mediation as an alternative to litigation.

With a career spanning 32 years, Nancy has been instrumental in the lives of many couples. Initially, she helped them navigate the complex process of divorce. Now, she has shifted her focus to assisting couples to avoid divorce, a transformation that underscores her commitment to fostering healthy relationships.

Nancy's upcoming how-to book, The Malnourished Marriage – 5 Essential Emotional Nutrients for a Healthy Relationship, is a practical guide, a conflict resolution buffet of food for thought to help couples navigate their way out of discontent and towards a love-filled relationship. Nancy's novel, Around Which All Things Bend, is a story about relationships and the lengths we go to for love.

Our conversation is centered around debunking the misconception that premarital agreements lead to divorce, and the crucial factors couples should consider before tying the knot.

Today's guest is Joe Okaly. Joe is a Certified Financial Planner.

Joe lives in NJ with his wife, Lauren, and two children. Joe runs a wealth management firm. His passion is helping young families. Early on, he realized most young families don't have access to financial education or professional help. His goal is to help fill that educational void, remove anxiety, and allow them to focus on making life most enjoyable with their family.

I invited Joe to come on today's show to discuss finances, financial planning, and engaged couples. What are the questions that couples should be asking in the engagement phase? What are some things couples can do before they get married that will benefit them after they get married? What are the biggest mistakes couples make in their first year of marriage? In their first five years of marriage? What would you do with a large wedding windfall or gift from parents/ family? Things like joint or separate finances for young married couples.

I am so excited about our guests today. Their names are Tim and Pam Mobley. And they are my spiritual Godparents. The reason I am a minister, in the ministry, and working with couples has everything to do with this couple. They are a fantastic couple celebrating 41 years of marriage. They were my youth ministers when I was in High School back in the late 80s, early 90s. When I was in high school, I spent a crazy amount of time in their home. Looking back, I now wonder how they managed to maintain a marriage and raise kids while also meeting the endless needs of youth, young adults, and ministry.

To learn more and connect with the Mobleys, you can visit their website at outpostexpeditions.org

Today's guest is Dayna Yurkovich. She is an event planner who specializes in wedding shows. One of the rites of passage for any newly engaged couple is the wedding show. You will see billboards all around town, usually in the early parts of the year, inviting brides, grooms, mothers of the bride, and bridal parties to the show. They are usually big and lots of fun. And they can also be a little overwhelming. There are always exciting times for Brides, and sometimes the groom might wonder what exactly he signed up for.

Dayna coordinates the wedding show closest to us. I live near Canton, Ohio, and her show is the Belden Village Bridal Show and has been held in Canton every year for the past 25 years. So, if you are in the Canton/ Akron area, you definitely need to make plans to attend. If you are listening anywhere else in the country, I am sure a bridal show is coming up at a mall near you. Regardless of where you are, Dayna will share a little bit about why going to these shows is a good thing, how to get the best from them, etc.

We are so excited about today's guest. His name is Jeff Hamling. Jeff is a Presbyterian Pastor serving in Bozeman, Montana. He is the author of a few books, but the one that caught my eye was a book he wrote about the Musical Hamilton. I am a huge fan of the musical, as well as most of my family. One of the things that fascinates me the most about the story of Hamilton is the story of his wife, his family, and marriage. So I invited Jeff to come on today and talk about his ministry, his book, and his own life and marriage principles as well.
