Would you choose your partner again if you met them exactly as they are today? In this episode of Thoughts From The Chair, Chris challenges couples to look beyond history, comfort, kids, finances, and the fact that you once fell in love. We dig into what actually makes a long-term relationship worth choosing, respect, attraction, admiration, trust, compatibility, character, personal growth, intimacy, and whether both people are still becoming someone their partner genuinely wants to build a life with.We also get into one of the biggest problems in long-term relationships, assuming you still know your partner because you know their habits. You'll learn why couples need regular relationship check-ins, how resentment can leave you interacting with an outdated version of your spouse, why curiosity matters, and how to uncover what your partner is worried about, struggling with, becoming, and afraid to tell you. If your marriage feels disconnected, stagnant, more like roommates than lovers, or you simply want a stronger relationship, this episode gives you questions and conversations that can help you reconnect and build a new relationship with the person you already chose.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/2-be-better--5828421/support.

#980. Does grief actually get easier with time… or do you just learn how to live alongside it?Amanda Kloots is back on Off the Vine for a conversation about the part of grief we don't talk about enough: what happens years later, when the world has moved on but your relationship with loss is still changing. Amanda opens up about where she is six years after losing her husband Nick, why she no longer believes in being fully “healed,” and the unexpected therapy experience that completely shifted the way she looks at grief.She and Kaitlyn also talk about what actually helps when someone you love is grieving, why we're so afraid to talk about the people we've lost, and how Elvis is getting to know his dad as he gets older.Then things get a whole lot lighter with Harry Jowsey. Amanda takes us inside their unexpected friendship, what it was like helping him look for a wife on Netflix's Let's Marry Harry, and why losing Nick completely changed what she believes a healthy relationship should feel like.It's grief, healing, dating, friendship, a little Harry Jowsey chaos — and a conversation that might change the way you think about loss.If you're LOVING this podcast, please follow and leave a rating and review below!

What does Christian dating actually look like in a culture that treats relationships, sex and marriage very differently than Scripture does? This week, the guys start with Tyler’s unexpected history on The Bachelorette and what really happens behind the scenes on reality dating shows. That conversation quickly turns into something much deeper: dating apps, the role of the local church in relationships, dating with the intention of marriage, the gift of singleness and whether Christians should approach dating differently than the rest of the world. They also get practical about one of the hardest parts of Christian dating: purity. How far is too far? What boundaries should dating couples have? What about long engagements, living together before marriage or dating someone who doesn’t follow Christ? Instead of asking, “How close to the line can I get?” the guys wrestle with what it looks like to actually desire holiness and trust that God’s way is better. But this conversation isn’t coming from four guys claiming they’ve always gotten it right. They close with the gospel and a reminder that conviction isn’t an invitation to clean yourself up before coming to Jesus. Christ came to save sinners. For anyone who recognizes themselves in this conversation, the answer is not shame. It’s repentance, forgiveness and running to the Savior who has already paid for sin at the cross. Christian dating, singleness, marriage, sex, purity and grace. There’s a lot packed into this one.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This month on Coming Out and Beyond it is our monthly dating and relationship show, and Anne-Marie is joined by her co-coach Barbara Rowlandson, a psychotherapist and dating coach, and her wife Tonda McKay. Before the questions, the three of them catch up on a summer of kayaking, wineries, and a 2,500 mile road trip through Michigan that somehow ended without a single argument. Anne-Marie and Tonda talk honestly about what ten years together and five years of marriage have actually asked of them, because the falling in love was real and so was the work.Then we open the mailbag. All of this month's questions come from the Late Blooming Lesbian subreddit, and they are the ones so many women ask quietly when they are new to dating women. What is it like to hold your girlfriend's hand in public for the first time, and where is the line between joy and scanning the room for other people's reactions. How do you think about an age gap when you are coming out later in life. What does reciprocity look like when one person keeps paying and the other keeps apologizing for it. And when someone pushes for exclusivity after a single date, is that really the U-Haul, or something else underneath. Barbara brings the therapist's lens, Tonda brings the honest one word answer, and Anne-Marie holds the pastoral middle.If you are somewhere on this road yourself, you do not have to walk it alone.Anne-Marie and Barb are hosting the 3-Day Clarity Experience on September 22, 23, and 24 at 7:00 PM Central. It is our most loved event, with 62 women in the room last time, and it is a warm, honest place to sit with exactly these kinds of questions alongside other women moving through this chapter too. We would love to have you there. Register at annemariezanzal.com and click the banner at the top.If coming out later in life is your story, Authentically Us is a good place to land. Authentically Us is our online community of women who genuinely support each other through this time.

Can someone truly change, or are you ignoring the warning signs because you're in love with their potential? In this episode of the 2 Be Better Podcast, Chris and Peaches respond to a heartbreaking relationship email from a woman caught in a cycle of manipulation, infidelity, broken trust, and repeated second chances. They unpack the difference between healthy boundaries and control, why people stay in toxic relationships long after the red flags appear, and how unresolved childhood wounds can leave us accepting far less than we deserve.This conversation dives deep into accountability, self worth, traditional relationships, betrayal, codependency, and the dangerous hope that keeps people trapped in unhealthy dynamics. You'll also hear an honest discussion about dating standards, commitment, manipulation, emotional abuse, co-parenting, staying for the children, and why actions will always reveal more than words. Chris and Peaches challenge the belief that love alone can fix a relationship and explain why boundaries without consequences are not boundaries at all. If you've ever struggled to leave a toxic partner, questioned your relationship, or wondered whether you're seeing reality or just someone's potential, this episode offers practical insights that could change the way you approach love, trust, and your future.Disclaimer: We are not professionals.

When someone tells you they're ready for a future together, should you believe their words or watch their actions? In this episode of the 2 Be Better Podcast, Chris and Peaches break down a relationship email from a woman whose boyfriend repeatedly promised they would move in together, only to back out after she made life-changing financial decisions based on his word. They discuss broken trust, relationship timelines, financial responsibility, difficult conversations, integrity, and why ignoring red flags often leads to resentment. If you've ever wondered whether you're wasting time in a relationship or staying because of potential instead of reality, this conversation is for you.

Send us Fan MailWhat happens when a date is going perfectly... until her baby daddy shows up at 3 o'clock in the morning?This week on Playing 4 Keeps, DJ sits down with Aaron Galloway for a dating story that goes from promising to potentially dangerous very quickly.After meeting a woman and immediately hitting it off, Aaron thought he might have found something real. Within weeks, he was meeting family, spending time at her home and getting pulled deeper into her life. Then her children's father showed up. What happened next left Aaron wondering why he had ignored the warning signs and taught him one very specific dating lesson: know what you're walking into before somebody else's unresolved relationship becomes your problem.  But this conversation goes much further than one crazy date.DJ and Aaron get into dating red flags, moving too fast, love bombing, trying too hard to prove you're relationship material, dating as a single parent, sex too early, successful men with too many options, dating in Atlanta, and why you have to listen when someone tells you they don't want a relationship.Aaron also challenges women to stop dating based on who they think a man could become. If he tells you he does not want a relationship, believe what he is telling you instead of trying to convince him to want one. And when it comes to getting physical too quickly, Aaron has another warning: if sex is the main thing on his mind, he may not be looking for a wife at all. Dating is a mess, but we keep it moving.Subscribe to Playing 4 Keeps for real dating stories, relationship conversations, lessons learned and the kind of dating advice that comes from actually living through it.Topics: dating red flags, modern dating, dating in Atlanta, relationships, baby daddy drama, love bombing, dating advice for women, single parents dating, situationships, moving too fast, relationship advice#Playing4Keeps #DatingRedFlags #ModernDating #DatingAdvice #RelationshipsSupport the showDating is a mess, but we keep it moving.

Throughout the conversation, Chris and Peaches explore self-worth, dating after trauma, people-pleasing, accountability, childhood conditioning, financial values, communication, and why compatibility matters more than chemistry. If you've ever wondered why dating feels so difficult, struggled with low self-esteem after rejection, questioned whether you're settling in a relationship, or felt stuck between love and incompatibility, this episode is for you. Expect honest opinions, practical relationship advice, real-world communication strategies, and conversations about boundaries, emotional healing, dating standards, financial compatibility, and building healthier relationships.

Nobody on a first date asks about money scripts. But according to Dr. Kristine Anthes, that silence is where relationships start breaking down. In this follow-up conversation with Rick Kahler, Kristine gets into the mechanics of IFS-informed matchmaking — how she prepares clients before a date, debriefs them after, and slowly brings money into the conversation through values rather than net worth. Rick shares his own story of insisting on a prenup, watching parts take over the negotiation, and ending up without one. The real insight isn't about what someone earns or owns — it's about psychological flexibility, whether a person's money parts are rigid or can bend. Two people with identical net worth can still be financially incompatible. Two people with different financial pictures can thrive. What actually predicts the relationship is what's running underneath the numbers.  #DrKristineAnthes, #KristineAnthes, #RickKahler, #FinancialTherapy, #MoneyScripts, #InternalFamilySystems, #IFS, #RelationshipPsychology, #FinancialCompatibility, #EmotionalCompatibility, #CouplesAndMoney, #MoneyMindset, #PsychologyOfMoney, #BehavioralFinance, #FinancialPsychology, #DatingAdvice, #HealthyRelationships, #CouplesTherapy, #RelationshipCoaching, #Prenup, #LoveAndMoney, #FinancialWellness, #RelationshipValues, #EmotionalIntelligence, #PersonalFinance, #MoneyConversations, #ConsciousDating, #RelationshipGoals, #EmotionalHealing, #FinancialLiteracy A podcast that blends the nuts and bolts of financial advice with the emotions that drive our money decisions.

In this 23-minute episode, I explore what it really means to expect more from men;  not from a place of criticism or perfectionism, but from a belief in their capacity to grow.We talk about the difference between supporting our partners and becoming their therapists, mothers, or emotional managers; why we need to stop glorifying breadcrumbs and the bare minimum; and how overfunctioning can prevent the people we love from stepping up and taking responsibility for their own growth.I also explore the Kabbalistic concept of “earning the light,” why growth often requires choosing the uncomfortable path, and what Ted Lasso can teach us about a version of masculinity where pain, vulnerability, kindness, accountability, and strength can coexist.Ultimately, this episode is an invitation to raise our standards without trying to control another person and to remember that believing in someone's potential also means believing they're capable of doing their own work.♾ In a fast-paced world like the one we live in, time is one of our most important assets. For a few minutes every episode, I, Tannaz Hosseinpour, will be discussing topics that aim to enhance the quality of your life, by helping you feel empowered to take inspired action on your personal growth journey.Connect with me for daily insights:InstagramFacebookTikTokMore resources available on www.minutesongrowth.comThis podcast is for educational purposes only.

Worried your age gap relationship will make you age too fast? It's a common question I get from clients and followers. Here's what really happens when younger and older partners build a relationship. Age gap relationships are surrounded by myths. One of the most persistent claims is that the younger partner will somehow "age too fast."

Plenty of great questions for Jordana LIVE from the State Fair - clocks being stuck on WCCO Radio, workers picking up the lazy coworkers workload and more with Dear Jordana!

Send us Fan MailRic Holcomb Jr. comes to Playing 4 Keeps with a dating rule that is guaranteed to start a conversation: don't date baddies.Ric says some of his worst dating experiences came from the women he considered the most attractive. From constantly dealing with other men approaching his partners to jealousy, material expectations, and relationships becoming more complicated as attention increased, Ric explains why he believes dating a “10” can come with more than just good looks. DJ challenges that theory and asks whether the real issue is beauty or simply choosing the wrong type of woman.  Then Ric tells the story of a date that went completely left. She told him she only went to expensive restaurants, barely held a conversation once they got there, sent her food back twice, and left Ric wondering why he had agreed to the date in the first place. His solution? Put money on the table and leave.  The conversation also gets into male jealousy, dating someone with “motion,” independence, money, faith, intelligence, and what Ric says a woman needs to bring to the table if she wants to date him today.  Guest: Ric Holcomb Jr. Instagram: @ricmystroholcombjrSubscribe to Playing 4 Keeps for dating stories, relationship debates, red flags, lessons learned, and conversations about what modern dating really looks like.Support the showDating is a mess, but we keep it moving.

What happens when the honeymoon phase ends and the real work begins? In this special collaborative episode of The Breaking Free Podcast, I sit down with Shannon Harrison, host of The Womanhood Podcast, for a deeply personal conversation about love, relationships, self-development and what it actually takes to build a lasting partnership. Shannon and I open up about their own relationship journeys from early dating experiences and synchronicities to long-term partnership, commitment, living together and navigating the uncomfortable moments that force us to grow. I share my journey into my relationship with Britt, including how personal development, unexpected guidance and synchronicities played a role in bringing them together. Shannon shares her own story with Elliot, including the importance of friendship, personal growth and consciously choosing commitment. Together, we explore the realities of conscious relationships  including emotional triggers, inner-child patterns, vulnerability, communication, patience and learning to understand your partner's emotional language. We also dive into how differences in emotional needs and the menstrual cycle can impact relationships, and why understanding rather than reacting can completely change the dynamic between two people. This conversation is about what happens when two people are willing to look at themselves, communicate honestly and grow together.

What if the biggest threat to your marriage isn't infidelity, incompatibility, or a lack of love, but the slow loss of curiosity, trust, and attraction? In this episode of Thoughts From the Chair, Chris breaks down what happens when couples stop discovering each other and start operating from assumptions, outdated stories, resentment, and familiarity. You'll hear why you may know everything about your spouse's routine while knowing very little about who they're becoming, how confirmation bias can trap your partner inside an old version of themselves, and why continuing to court, communicate with, and stay curious about your spouse matters in a healthy long-term relationship.The conversation also dives into privacy vs. secrecy in marriage, phone passwords, location sharing, emotional affairs, boundaries, rebuilding trust after betrayal, and when transparency crosses the line into surveillance. Chris then tackles one of the harder conversations in marriage, whether attraction can survive familiarity, and the responsibility both partners have to remain physically, emotionally, and relationally attractive. If you're struggling with marriage communication, resentment, trust issues, intimacy, emotional connection, a sexless marriage, or feeling more like roommates than lovers, this episode will challenge you to stop asking whether your partner has changed and start asking whether you've continued paying attention.Disclaimer: We are not professionals.

"Red pill cuck cope."That's the phrase my guest dropped halfway through this conversation and I haven't stopped thinking about it since.A girl doesn't write you back and you go looking for the reason why. And the reason you land on is always something you can't change. She only dates guys over six feet. There's no good women left in this city.It feels like analysis. What you're actually building is the exact excuse that stops you from talking to the next girl you see.My guest is Joe Ducard. At his heaviest he was just under 350 pounds, 19 years old, been with one girl in his life. He found this stuff while he was still that big, lost over 100 pounds, made Master Instructor at Love Systems, and has run his own coaching company for over a decade.We get into why his best friend is convinced women won't date guys under six feet, the one drop of poison principle for guarding your mindset, why you should never ask a girl why it didn't work out, why making guy friends right now is harder than getting dates, and the client who showed up with a 40-item checklist from another coach.If you've been consuming a ton of dating content and somehow feeling worse about your chances instead of better — this one's for you.───────────────────────────Connect with Joe: https://meetmoregirls.com───────────────────────────Free Dating Protocol: https://www.innerconfidence.com/Book a call with Robbie: https://www.innerconfidence.com/community───────────────────────────Connect with Robbie:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/robbie_kramer/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@robbie.kramerYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/innerconfidence

In this episode of Thoughts From the Chair, Chris dives into a difficult question about modern relationships, friendships, and loyalty: Have we started treating people like they're disposable? We live in a culture obsessed with upgrading, replacing, and moving on to the next best thing, and that mentality has found its way into our marriages, friendships, dating lives, and communities. This conversation explores why relationships fall apart, how unspoken expectations and resentment destroy connection, why uncomfortable conversations matter, and the difference between genuinely loving someone and simply loving what they provide for you. Real relationships require honesty, accountability, forgiveness, boundaries, communication, sacrifice, and the willingness to repair what's been damaged instead of immediately looking for a replacement.The conversation gets even deeper when a community member asks what happens when you're always the giver surrounded by takers. Chris breaks down people pleasing, one sided friendships, toxic relationship dynamics, boundaries, self abandonment, loyalty, sacrifice, dating, marriage, and knowing when helping someone has crossed the line into enabling them. You'll hear why takers often see boundaries as betrayal, why being needed isn't the same as being loved, how poor communication creates resentment, and why healthy relationships require reciprocity instead of one person constantly carrying the weight. If you've ever wondered whether someone actually loves you or simply loves what you do for them, whether you should keep fighting for a relationship, or how to set boundaries without becoming cold and disconnected, this conversation is for youDisclaimer: We are not professionals.

Dating isn't about seeing how close you can get to the line—it's about pursuing relationships with wisdom, purpose, and holiness. In this episode, Pastor Jared and Pastor DJ talk through God-honoring boundaries, avoiding temptation, seeking wise counsel, and dating with marriage in mind.From physical boundaries to recognizing when a relationship isn't moving in the right direction, the conversation challenges Christians to slow down, invite community into the process, and make choices today that set the foundation for a healthy future. Ultimately, following Jesus means choosing transformation and obedience over culture, convenience, and feelings.

This episode of the 2 Be Better Podcast tackles one of the hardest questions anyone can face, how do you keep moving forward when life won't stop hitting you? Chris and Peaches discuss the difference between trauma and hardship, surviving season after season of crisis, supporting a partner through serious illness, maintaining emotional connection when your own needs aren't being met, and why your mindset determines whether life's challenges become your identity or your catalyst for growth. They also share practical advice on communication, emotional resilience, love languages during illness, and how to avoid falling into a victim mindset while still honoring genuine pain. The conversation also goes behind the scenes of their growing business, homeschooling plans, building a botanical extraction laboratory, reducing technology and news consumption, preparing for the future, and why they are shifting the direction of their content toward meaningful personal growth instead of relationship drama. If you're interested in relationships, mental health, resilience, emotional maturity, self improvement, accountability, communication, trauma recovery, or creating a more intentional life, this episode offers honest conversations and practical perspectives you can apply immediately.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/2-be-better--5828421/support.

In this episode of the 2 Be Better Podcast, Chris answers real relationship questions submitted by listeners and tackles the conversations most people are afraid to have. From marriage, submission, leadership, boundaries, trust, jealousy, financial struggles, social media addiction, and protecting intimacy, to maintaining connection when work keeps couples apart, these emails expose the everyday problems that can quietly destroy relationships when people refuse to communicate. Chris breaks down the difference between submission and control, requests and demands, insecurity and legitimate boundaries, while challenging both men and women to take accountability for the role they play in their relationships.This isn't traditional relationship advice. These are raw, unfiltered answers about marriage, masculine leadership, feminine submission, communication, personal accountability, dating, trust, intimacy, money, and becoming a better partner. You'll hear why your partner can't read your mind, how unspoken expectations create resentment, why boundaries require communication, how social media can distort your perception of relationships, and why being present with your partner matters more than trying to recover time you've already lost. If you're trying to build a stronger marriage, improve communication, understand relationship dynamics, or stop repeating the same destructive patterns, this episode will give you plenty to think about.Disclaimer: We are not professionals.

You'll learn how to separate conflict from abuse, communicate boundaries effectively, recognize when someone is capable of change, and understand the emotional consequences that come with going no contact.

We dive into emotional loneliness, marriage after kids, stay at home parenting, masculine and feminine roles, intimacy, security, boundaries, self worth, and the hidden ways unresolved wounds shape our relationships.If you've ever wondered why your partner doesn't seem to "get" you anymore, why intimacy fades, or how to reconnect without blame, this conversation is for you. We share practical relationship advice on rebuilding emotional connection, communicating needs without resentment, understanding different emotional perspectives, and creating a marriage where both people feel seen, valued, and supported.

This episode is for anyone navigating the pain of a breakup, divorce, or the end of a long-term relationship and wondering, "What now?" We break down how to know when you're actually ready to date again, why healing is more important than waiting a certain amount of time, and the biggest mistakes people make after a relationship ends. We discuss loneliness versus companionship, trauma bonds, rebound relationships, emotional healing, codependency, self-worth, boundaries, journaling, therapy, and why so many people repeat the same relationship patterns without realizing it. If you're trying to move on after a breakup, recover from divorce, or build healthier relationships in the future, this conversation will help you understand what real healing looks like. You'll also learn the signs that you, or someone you're dating, may not be emotionally ready for another relationship, how to rebuild your identity after years of being with one person, and why self-awareness is the foundation of lasting love. We share practical advice on creating boundaries, recognizing red flags, avoiding rebound relationships, healing attachment wounds, and becoming the kind of person who attracts healthy relationships instead of repeating old cycles.

If you've ever wondered whether Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) causes abuse, or whether someone is using their diagnosis to avoid accountability, this conversation tackles one of the most misunderstood topics in mental health and relationships. We break down the difference between emotional dysregulation and abusive behavior, explain why a diagnosis is never an excuse for manipulation, and discuss how untreated trauma can create destructive relationship patterns. You'll also learn about splitting, emotional reasoning, fear of abandonment, codependency, walking on eggshells, gaslighting, boundaries, attachment styles, DBT, accountability, and what genuine recovery actually looks like.Throughout this discussion, we share personal experiences with BPD, healing, therapy, and the work it takes to build emotionally healthy relationships. Whether you're living with Borderline Personality Disorder, dating someone with BPD, recovering from an abusive relationship, or simply trying to better understand trauma and emotional regulation, this episode offers practical insights without shame or stigma. Our goal isn't to label people as good or bad. It's to separate explanation from excuse, compassion from enabling, and help people recognize that healing begins when we take responsibility for what our pain produces.Disclaimer: We are not professionals.
