We trace Sari and Corey’s path from a decade of conflict avoidance to a practical, hopeful toolbox for intimacy. Addiction recovery, leadership at home and work, and the science of shame become catalysts for trust, curiosity, and partnership.

• early marriage shaped by addiction, loss, and avoidance
• the moral story that made conflict feel wrong
• loneliness as the hidden cost of peacekeeping
• honesty and transparency as recurring triggers
• leadership gaps across business and home
• the vacation planning pattern as a mirror
• “stay in your own backyard” as a core tool
• rewriting pessimistic stories with curiosity
• listening to the body to catch shame early
• choosing connection over being right
• why they invest in recurring breakthroughs
