Is success in business simply about having the right idea, raising the perfect amount of money, or having the right connections? According to our guest today, David Senra, it's none of those. It's about obsession. David Senra has read 400+ biographies of history's greatest entrepreneurs, studying how they actually built their companies. On his podcast Founders, he distills the lives of iconic builders into actionable frameworks. He also hosts in-depth conversations with living founders on his new show David Senra — from Daniel Ek to Michael Dell to Todd Graves — extracting the mental models you only earn after decades in the arena. In this wide-ranging conversation, we break down: • Why history's greatest entrepreneurs hire for spikes, not well-rounded resumes • Why durability is a first-rate virtue — and most businesses die of indigestion, not starvation • How Steve Jobs worked barefoot at Atari — and why Nolan Bushnell kept him anyway • Why George Lucas bet unapologetically on himself • How Sam Zell tortured himself into greatness — and why he chose freedom over money • Why Michael Dell says he works “all the days” • The founder archetypes framework — and why founder-problem fit beats founder-market fit • Why Todd Graves hasn't changed his menu in 30 years — and built a $20B chicken empire • How Rick Rubin became a reducer, not a producer — and why ruthless editing creates timeless work • Why belief comes before ability — non-negotiable for builders If you want to think like Jobs, Bezos, Zell, or Munger, this episode will permanently change how you approach focus, entrepreneurship, and building something that lasts.

As we begin the season of Lent, let's look at how we live our lives in our marriage and in our motherhood.Our ordinary life is the perfect vehicle to embrace the goal of Lent, which is conversion. As wives and mothers, our days are filled with opportunities to convert our heart, mind, and body to God. Do we recognize those opportunities, and do we take up our cross daily to follow Jesus or do we ignore the opportunity to make our everyday holy?I also mention in this episode the opportunity to connect with me through 1:1 coaching.

You know that feeling when you say, “He helps.” He does chores. He shows up. He's not checked out. And yet… you're still exhausted. If that's you, you are not ungrateful. You are not asking for too much. And you are not broken. In this episode, JoAnn sits down with comedian, actor, and author Jordan Carlos to talk about invisible work in marriage — what it really is, why “helping” still leaves one partner carrying the mental load, and what true responsibility sharing actually looks like in everyday family life. Because the problem isn't whether the dishes get done. The problem is who is still managing the fact that they need to get done. Jordan shares candidly about his own marriage, how COVID forced him to see the invisible labor his wife was carrying, and the mindset shift that moved him from “assistant” to actual partner. This conversation is honest, funny, and practical — and it will help you rethink how responsibility lives in your home. What We Cover in This Episode 1. What Invisible Work Really Is Invisible work isn't just chores. It's tracking schedules, noticing when you're low on toothpaste, remembering spirit days, and managing the emotional temperature of the house. When one partner carries the mental load — even if the other “helps” — burnout and resentment quietly build. 2. Why “Helping” Keeps One Person in Charge When someone helps, there is still a manager. Delegating Noticing Reminding Carrying responsibility if something falls through Jordan talks about the moment he realized he was “redundant” in his own home — and how that realization changed everything. 3. The Resentment Signal Resentment doesn't show up overnight. It builds in the sighs, the tension, and the feeling of being alone in daily life. Small shifts — like doing things without being asked — can dramatically lower that emotional temperature. 4. Responsibility Sharing vs. 50/50 What's equal isn't always fair. And what's fair isn't always equal. True partnership isn't about splitting every task down the middle. It's about shared ownership. It's about both adults seeing the home as theirs to steward. Jordan shares how stepping into responsibility — not waiting for instructions — shifted his marriage in meaningful ways. 5. Why Self-Care Supports Partnership When both partners take care of themselves, they show up better in the relationship. Responsibility sharing doesn't mean depletion. It means two adults who are capable, aware, and engaged. Why This Episode Matters So many overwhelmed moms feel guilty for wanting more support. “He does a lot already.” “I don't want to nag.” “Maybe this is just marriage.” But when invisible work stays invisible, emotional disconnection grows. This episode gives language to what you may have been feeling for years. It also gives you a starting place — not to control your partner, but to shift how responsibility is shared in your home. Partnership isn't about doing more. It's about no longer carrying it alone.

In the last few years I've started to notice something in my peers, colleagues and clients who are a few years deeper into their 40s — and a few years deeper into their marriage and life as parents: Things are starting to crack and fissure. Things that were a whisper of an issue before are now all encompassing. But are these big, life-altering cracks, or obstacles meant to drive a couple into its next evolution? Not the easiest of questions to contemplate. Not the easiest of questions to answer.I've been doing that work, asking those questions and surfacing those answers for years in my practice. I've now turned it into a formal program.In today's episode I'm discussing:Why things start to stir in our marriages/long term relationships at this point in lifeThe similarities I see between my single clients and married clients at this point in lifeWhy women, at this point in their marriages, wake up to how disconnected they can feel to their partners — how their role embodies more of 'Director of Operations' than a wife, partner or individualSome ways to navigate next steps, if you find yourself in this season of lifeQuestions mentioned in podcast:What version of myself am I missing right now?What do I long to feel or experience in my days that I don't have access to? What's driving that?In what ways have I been trying to get my partner to change — and what am I anticipating that change would do for me energetically, spiritually, emotionally? Is that something I could do for myself?Episode w/ Kara LoweintheilWork with me PrivatelyConnect on InstagramWebsitePodcast Production by James Jorge

This week, Jake and Bob welcome John Edwards, a fellow guy in the pew, to share his raw and redemptive journey from addiction and secrecy to finding his identity in God. From outward success and hidden cocaine use to the devastating loss of his mother, John reveals how grief, shame, and a longing for affirmation shaped his choices—and nearly destroyed his marriage and family. He opens up about the masks he wore, the lies he believed about God as a harsh judge, and the panic attacks that finally exposed the prison he was living in. With honesty and courage, John recounts the night he chose confession over isolation, and how mercy began to break through years of self-reliance and despair. If you've ever felt abandoned by God or buried under your own failures, this conversation is an invitation to bring your whole story into the light. Key Points: The absence of emotional affirmation from John's father created a deep wound and a longing to feel seen. Addiction to drugs, alcohol, and pornography became a way to numb pain and pursue belonging and control. John describes living behind layers of "masks" to hide his addiction and shame from others. Marriage and fatherhood did not automatically heal John's wounds, and secrecy continued to damage family life. The death of John's mother shattered his emotional security and intensified his anger toward God. Fear of being exposed kept John trapped in lies and prevented him from asking for help. John's arrest and imprisonment brought total loss of control and the collapse of his false identities. In the jail cell, John experienced profound powerlessness and the end of his ability to hide. Surrendering control marked the moment when true freedom began. Jesus met John in his darkest place, revealing that He never abandoned him. Christ goes anywhere to restore broken hearts.

The stats of anxiety, depression, and stress on Gen Z (ages 14-28) are scary and higher than ever before. That's not hyperbole. What have been the cultural, familial, and individual influences at work, and what can parents of Gen Alpha (ages 0-13) learn from where we find ourselves? We believe that parents hold the keys to influencing the next generation. And there is much more hope than might appear at the surface. But the way through is by first addressing what may be our greatest adversary: Our own parental fears. In this episode, we ask the question, “Why are we doing what we're doing as families?” We address issues like the self-fulfilling prophecy, the role of epigenetics in child outcomes, and the spiritual laws that influence our decisions.

The idea of a “soul mate” sounds romantic, but what if it quietly removes God from the center of your relationship decisions? In this Love & Marriage episode (part 2), we talk honestly about why the soul-mate mindset can be misleading, how it shapes expectations in relationships and marriage, and what we've learned through our own relationship when we stopped chasing “the one”. This conversation is for anyone wrestling with love, compatibility, purpose, and faith - whether you're single, "dating", or married. Really... We're asking one main question... Is the relationship actually God's design, or something we've just been taught to believe?

Which island is your marriage on right now? In this episode, we share a simple but eye-opening framework we call The 3 Islands of Marriage: Dysfunction, Function, and Connection. Marriage naturally moves through different states depending on the season you're in. Stress, transitions, parenting, unresolved conflict, or even just routine can shift where you and your partner are emotionally. We break down: • What each island looks and feels like • The subtle signs you may be drifting • And the practical steps to move toward Connection Island Every couple will land on different islands at different times. The goal isn't to panic — it's to recognize where you are and take intentional steps forward. Because time alone doesn't move a marriage back to a healthy place. Awareness and action do. If you've been feeling disconnected, stuck in conflict, or just functioning but not truly close, this episode will help you figure out your next move. Relationship Resources Mentioned 1) Moving from Dysfunction to Function island - watch the 5 Root Causes webclass or do the Rebuilding Us Challenge 2) Moving from Function to Connection island - start the Prioritize Us couples Challenge.

Emotional regulation is one of the most important relationship skills we were never taught. In this episode of the Love Your Life Show, Susie Pettit explains why emotional regulation is the skill that makes parenting and marriage easier and why learning to stay calm when the people you love are not can change every relationship in your life. If you tend to take responsibility for other people's emotions, rush to fix feelings, or feel unsettled when your kids, partner, or loved ones are upset, this episode is for you. Susie shares how emotional regulation builds emotional safety, why fixing feelings often backfires, and how developing emotional resiliency helps you show up as a calmer parent, partner, and human. You'll learn: ⭐️ What emotional regulation actually is and why it matters in parenting, marriage, and relationships with our empty nest young adults ⭐️ How to stop outsourcing your calm to the people around you ⭐️ Why feelings need support, not solutions ⭐️ A simple framework to respond to big emotions without fixing or shutting them down ⭐️ How emotional regulation supports emotional intelligence in kids, teens, and even our underfunctioning partners or young adults Whether you're parenting young children, teenagers, adult kids, or navigating a long-term relationship, this episode will help you understand why your internal calm is the foundation for healthier, more connected relationships. If you want parenting and marriage to feel less heavy and more grounded, emotional regulation is where it starts. Thanks for listening!

In this episode, Sharla and Robert explain how to create a "system of governance" in your marriage—drawing from John Gottman's "accepting influence" and Stan Tatkin's shared leadership—to end power struggles, restore parity, and protect your “couple bubble.”Hear real couple stories, our own early parenting struggles, a list of 10 key principles to start your governance system, and a deep dive on "guardrails"—in-moment reminders that interrupt harmful patterns before they escalate.This is how you lead each other without chaos or hurt.Key TakeawaysGovernance isn't control—it's a shared constitution for decisions, influence, and implementing principles.Accepting influence (Gottman) means blending strengths—couples who do this are far more likely to thrive.Build principles like "We shield each other from harm" that you both defend selfishly.Guardrails: In-moment reminders (e.g., "Remember our agreement?") interrupt harmful autopilot behaviors before fights escalate.No system = power struggles and resentment; good governance + guardrails = allies and a strong bubble.ResourcesThe Seven Principles for Making Marriage Work by John Gottman – Gold standard for influence and conflict.Wired for Love by Stan Tatkin – Deep dive on shared leadership.In Each Other's Care by Stan Tatkin – Modern habits for governance.Up Next WeekKeeping each other safe through partner soothingIf this helped you spot a power imbalance, follow, comment, and share!

The woman tipped to be the next head of the UK Civil Service has faced multiple bullying complaints according to reports this morning. The Times newspaper says "there is more than a whiff of misogyny" in the briefings against her. Nuala McGovern hears more about the debate over the possible appointment of Dame Antonia Romeo with Kitty Donaldson, the Chief Political Commentator for the i Newspaper, and Caroline Slocock. Caroline was the first female private secretary to a British Prime Minister when she served alongside Margaret Thatcher.Belle Burden is a former corporate lawyer, a pro bono immigration lawyer, a Harvard graduate and a mother of three, born into American high society. When she got married in 1999, her wedding was announced in the New York Times. Two decades later she broke with convention and published her candid essay on the marriage's sudden rupture, in the long-running New York Times Modern Love series. Now her book Strangers: A Memoir of a Marriage has become a New York Times bestseller. Belle Burden joins Nuala live from New York to discuss ghosting, grieving and getting on with life on her own terms.Tomorrow, the Foreign Secretary Yvette Cooper will speak about the plight of women and girls in Sudan at the United Nations Security Council. Stories from the war-torn country are harrowing. Sudan's conflict began in April 2023 between the Sudanese Armed Forces and the Rapid Support Forces or RSF. More than 150,000 people have died in the conflict across the country, and about 12 million have fled their homes in what the UN has called the world's largest humanitarian crisis. Nuala is joined BBC's Africa Correspondent, Barbara Plett Usher.Two years ago, Dr Henrietta Hughes, England's first Patient Safety Commissioner, published a report laying out a plan for compensation for women harmed by pelvic mesh implants.

We'll explore the markers of secure attachment in marriage, how to recognize it, and most importantly - how to build it even if you didn't start there. Secure attachment isn't about being perfect; it's about repair, trust, and showing up consistently. Whether you're anxiously attached, avoidantly attached, or somewhere in between, this episode will show you the path toward greater security in your relationship. Because earned security is possible - and it changes everything. Watch on YouTube! Happening This Week!

Most Christian men aren't building their families in a way that is producing strength, legacy, or long-term faithfulness. The Bible teaches us a better way. In the third episode of this "Abrahamic Starter Kit Series," we unveil The Abrahamic Model — a completely different operating system for marriage, child-raising, and money. In this episode, we go back to the biblical mandate and show what it looks like for a man to lead his home with sacrificial authority so that his wife thrives and his children grow up ready to carry the family torch. This isn't about trends. It's about reclaiming God's original design — and building something that lasts for generations.

If you've ever walked away from a fight feeling right but more disconnected than ever — this episode is for you. Here, we got real about why the urge to be right in marriage runs deeper than you think, what it actually reveals about where you are personally, and why true unity starts in the spirit before it ever reaches your emotions.Most couples fight to win. But in marriage, when one of you wins, you both lose. In this honest, Spirit-filled conversation, we unpack why choosing pride over partnership is silently costing you connection, what scripture says about spirit-led communication, and what it practically looks like to fight for your marriage instead of in it.This one will challenge you, convict you, and leave you seeing your spouse — and your conflicts — completely differently.So, here's the question we leave you with: Where have you been protecting your position instead of your unity?>> Join waitlist of Thriving Kingdom Marriage Mastery, our signature 6-month cohort — a powerful journey to radically transform your marriage from the inside out: TKM MASTERY>> Be a part of our Facebook community here: FB Group (PS: must answer all questions in order to join).>> Have a question for us?

Send a textWhat if the most powerful tool for healing a strained marriage is already in your hands? We return to the marriage vow and hear it afresh—stripped of sentiment, heard as a living covenant that binds two people to each other and to God. Through a lyrical exchange and grounded teaching, we explore why love outlasts feelings, how fidelity becomes a daily choice, and what it means to treat sacred promises as treasures rather than trinkets.We slow down and read the vow line by line—“for better, for worse… in sickness and in health”—not as décor for a ceremony but as rails that keep a life on track when storms hit. Along the way, we trace the roots of covenant back to Abraham, where sacred promises carry weight, consequence, and presence. That story reframes modern marriage as more than a private romance; it becomes a public trust and a spiritual act that can bear real-life pressures like economic stress, shifting culture, and the lure of easy exits.You'll hear practical ways to make vows visible again: rereading them in moments of anger, turning them into weekly check-ins, and inviting mentors and faith communities to help carry the promise when your grip is weak. We speak candidly about cancel culture, the myth that love is only a feeling, and the quiet strength found in a threefold cord. If your home needs a reset or your heart needs courage, this conversation offers clarity, language, and hope to keep going with grace.If this resonated, follow the show, share it with a friend who needs encouragement, and leave a review to help others find these conversations. Then tell us: which line of the vow are you choosing to live this week?Support the showYou can support this show via the link below;https://www.buzzsprout.com/1718587/supporters/new

Every marriage brings a past into the present. For many couples, that past includes experiences, expectations, wounds, or shame that quietly affect intimacy and connection today. When sexual baggage goes unspoken, it can create distance, insecurity, and misunderstanding between spouses. In Episode 282 of The Family Meeting Podcast, we talk honestly and compassionately about sexual baggage in marriage, what it is, how it shows up, and how couples can move toward healing and healthy intimacy without blame or shame. In this episode, we cover: What sexual baggage really means and where it comes from. How past experiences influence expectations and emotional safety. The impact of comparison, insecurity, and shame on intimacy. How to have difficult conversations safely with your spouse. Biblical principles for forgiveness, renewal, and restoration. Practical steps to rebuild trust and connection over time. If the past feels like it's affecting your present relationship, this episode offers hope, clarity, and a path forward toward deeper connection and God-honoring intimacy.

What intentional practices can help us cultivate mutuality in our marriages?Healthy marriages are guided by the Spirit, focused on Christ, and fully committed to submitting to one another in love. This requires both husbands and wives to address their own dysfunctions and learn to lead their marriages together, for the glory and mission of Christ. Too many of us get stuck in the power struggle of marriage, but if we want healthy marriages, we need to learn to shift from a me-focus to a we-focus. Join Dan Gulnac and Chris Weber as they discuss practical tools for taking our marriages to the next level.

Brian and Beverly, the co-founders of Buffini & Company, are icons in the real estate world. Although Brian is the one normally in the limelight, he'd be the first to tell you he could not have been successful without the support of his wife, who also is the mother to their six children. In this episode of the It's a Good Life podcast, the couple is joined by their daughter, Anna, who chats with them about marriage, parenthood and staying strong even when life presents its inevitable challenges. This episode also serves as a sneak peak into the upcoming changes for the podcast as it prepares to shift to its roots next month as The Brian Buffini Show. YOU WILL LEARN: How the Buffinis handle pressure with a purpose-driven mindset, a family-first “team” mentality, and disciplined communication. Why belief—and filtering out “white noise”—is non-negotiable if you want to pursue a big vision. The importance of action, not just words, when it comes to your family and your business team. MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE: The Brian Buffini ShowAcres of Diamonds by Russell Conwell NOTEWORTHY QUOTES FROM THIS EPISODE: “It takes consistency to achieve the goal. So once you believe, then you've got to put your feet in the work and do the work. There's nothing short of that.” — Beverly Buffini "You've got to know what you want in order to not allow that white noise to interfere with your dreams and your beliefs.” — Beverly Buffini "Work on yourself harder than you work on your job.”— Brian Buffini “You want your kids to be readers, let them see you read in a book. You want your kids to be good communicators, let them see you communicate. You want your kids to be achievers, let them see you achieve.” — Brian Buffini “If it's going to affect information that you're going to use for yourself and others to make decisions, be bloody sure you know the source and make sure it's real.” — Brian Buffini Hosted on Acast.

Today on the Awesome Marriage Podcast, we're joined by Dan Purcell, creator of Get Your Marriage On! and the Intimately Us app. Dan is passionate about helping Christian couples build stronger, healthier marriages through better communication, playful intimacy, and gospel-centered connection. In this conversation, we explore the powerful link between spiritual and sexual intimacy in marriage. From God's design for sex to common misconceptions, practical habits, and healing struggles in the bedroom, Dan shares how faith and intimacy were always meant to work together. This episode offers encouragement and actionable wisdom for couples who want to honor God while cultivating deeper passion, joy, and closeness in their marriage. Episode Highlights: Experiencing really good sex in marriage requires living with virtue. What works in marriage will change over time. You must be willing to adapt together. Repair work is most of the work in marriage. Quotes from this Episode: This is a gift from God. He gave it to us to enjoy. You can't love a person you don't know. The more honest we can be about things, the better our marriage will be. Sex can be really fun. It can be incredibly replenishing. It can be good for your health. You want to get to a place where you're at ease talking about sex. Questions Worth Discussing: What part of this conversation felt most relatable to where we are right now? Did anything we heard make you think differently about how our faith and our intimacy connect—or even just spark a new thought? What's one small way we could be more intentional with each other this week—emotionally, spiritually, or physically?
