In today’s episode we react to therapy in a nutshell. What if we told you that communication was deeply influenced by an unseen cultural force - 'Ask Culture' versus 'Guess Culture'. This concept changed our marriage for the better and allowed us to build a foundation of understanding that we never had experienced. We’re so happy you’re here with us! Let’s jump in!

In this episode, we talk about sex while we navigate the profound depths of Mary and Joseph's heart-driven union. We discuss their extraordinary relationship and unravel the spiritual richness of their love, exploring how it has been depicted in Venerable Fulton Sheen's book "The World's First Love". We take a closer look at how absolute virginity and wedded life coexisted in their bond, a see how their example can apply to our marriage as well. We’re so happy you’re here with us! Let’s jump in!

How should married couples understand submission in marriage? Is it an outdated practice or a misinterpreted piece of Christian wisdom? In this episode we react to Fr. Mike's video and explore the true essence of submission in marriage. Drawing from ideas of Pope St. John Paul II along with our experience in marriage, we challenge the false dichotomy of Ephesians 5 that is often presented. We highlight the importance of mutual submission and the role that trust and complementarity play. And at the end we realize we have so much more to say! Stay tuned for part 2, We're so happy you're here with us, let's jump in!
