There is conflict in every relationship. What helps to ease the conflict is doing all the “little things” according to Julie Gottman author of the book The Love Prescription: Seven Days to More Intimacy, Connection, and Joy (https://amzn.to/3Tk6HMQ). Showing appreciation, saying thank you – simple things like that can have a huge impact . Julie joins me to explain exactly how to do it. Julie and her husband John Gottman have been helping couples navigate conflict and find love for many years and are considered experts in the field and are founders of The Gottman Institute. 

Cemeteries and Halloween seem to go together. This being October, what a perfect time to take a look at the interesting and sometimes quirky history of American cemeteries and how they have actually had an impact on our culture. For instance, did you know it was Abraham Lincoln who actually gave a kickstart to the funeral home business as well as the practice of embalming bodies before burial? That was all Abe's doing! Here to discuss this is Greg Melville an outdoor journalist and former editor at Men’s Journal and author of the book Over My Dead Body, Unearthing the Hidden History of America’s Cemeteries (https://amzn.to/3go6BFd).  

Have you ever taken a risk or tried something and worried that everyone was watching you and judging you? For instance, you go to the gym to exercise and you think all the people there are looking at what you are doing. If you have ever had that feeling, you need to listen as I discuss something called “the imaginary spotlight effect.” Source: David Allyn, author of I Can't Believe I Just Did That (https://amzn.to/3TvrE72).
