In this episode, we explore the quiet but corrosive role that negativity plays in relationships — not just through conflict, but in the subtle daily ruptures that erode trust, intimacy, and emotional safety over time. Drawing from Gottman's research, IMAGO relationship theory, and nervous system science, we unpack how negativity can show up emotionally, cognitively, physiologically, relationally, existentially, spiritually, and systemically. We challenge the idea that discomfort is always harmful, clarify the difference between harmful negativity and constructive truth-telling, and offer clear practices for eliminating negative patterns without falling into toxic positivity. This is about creating a sacred, secure space between you and your partner. A space where where truth can be spoken, pain can be repaired, and connection can grow.All of my links are here.

Description: One partner travels. The other holds down the fort. Then the suitcase rolls back in and suddenly, everything feels off. In this episode, Chris and Annie dive into the real-life tension couples face during the often-overlooked “re-entry” phase after solo parenting. Whether you're the one coming home or the one who's been home, there's a disconnect that can sneak in fast and create frustration, resentment, and miscommunication if you don't handle it intentionally. Let's talk about the unspoken expectations, the invisible scorecards, and how to reconnect without blowing up. What You'll Learn: Why the re-entry moment is harder than most couples expect What both the solo parent and the returning partner really feel Common mistakes that spark conflict and how to avoid them 3 simple rituals that help couples reset fast A few hilarious “what not to say” lines (from real life, of course) Real Talk Moments: “I didn't miss him like I thought I would…” and why that's okay The post-trip tension of one partner needing rest while the other needs relief How the invisible scorecard (“who did more?”) shows up subtly That one time, the suitcase sat in the hallway for days Tools & Tips: The Re-Entry Chat — a 5-minute pulse check before jumping back into family life Decompression Zones — 15 minutes for each partner to reset after time apart Reconnect Rituals — walk together, share coffee, or catch up with zero kid interruptions Mini Segment: “What Not to Say…” — guaranteed conflict-starters and how to rephrase them  Listener Challenge: Try one re-entry ritual this week, even if it's just a short walk and a “what do you need right now?” question. Watch how fast it shifts the vibe.  Got a funny or disastrous re-entry story? DM us on Instagram @FitCoupleMethod,  we might feature it in a future episode!  Like what you heard? Share this with a couple who knows the solo-parent grind and leave us a review to keep the conversation going.

In this episode of the Ultimate Intimacy Podcast, we (Nick and Amy) dive into a common concern we hear from many husbands: “Intimate Time Feels Like a Moving Target!"For some couples, intimacy seems to come with a long checklist such as chores finished, the house spotless, kids taken care of, emotional connection felt, and the right mood set... before intimate time is even an option. While those things can all be important, they can also leave one spouse feeling rejected, frustrated, or like intimacy is always out of reach.We unpack why these expectations often develop, how they impact both spouses differently, and what couples can do to find a healthier balance. You'll hear honest conversations about:Why the “checklist mentality” can create distance instead of connectionPractical ways to lower unrealistic expectations while still honoring emotional and relational needsHow to create an environment where both spouses feel valued and desiredWhether you've felt like intimacy is always “just out of reach” or you're the one needing certain things in place before feeling ready, this episode will give you insight, encouragement, and tools to bring more connection and fulfillment into your marriage.If you haven't already, go check out the Ultimate Intimacy App in the app stores, or at ultimateintimacy.com to find "Ultimate Intimacy" in your marriage.

"What We Feed Grows, And What We Starve Dies" - This is one of our favorite quotes from our good friends Greg and Julie Gorman with Married For A Purpose. We love this quote because it is so powerful and true! In marriage, our thoughts, beliefs, and attitudes act like seeds, what we feed our thoughts grows stronger (good or bad), what we starve our thoughts dies. Your thoughts truly shape what your marriage will be, what you focus on grows, and what you ignore fades. In this episode of The Ultimate Intimacy Podcast, we dive into the powerful idea that your attitude can make or break your relationship.If you constantly tell yourself you don't like sex or or the things your spouse does, and only focus on the negatives in your marriage, those feelings only grow stronger. But when you starve negative thoughts and intentionally nurture positive ones, your connection, intimacy, and joy can flourish.Tune in to learn how small shifts in your attitude can create big changes in your marriage.. helping you reconnect, laugh more, and build the kind of intimacy that lasts a lifetime.If you haven't already, go check out the Ultimate Intimacy App in the app stores, or at ultimateintimacy.com to find "Ultimate Intimacy" in your marriage.

In this episode of the Dad Edge Podcast, I sit down with GS Youngblood—author of The Masculine in Relationship and The Art of Embodiment for Men. GS brings decades of experience coaching men on leadership in marriage, parenting, and personal growth through his Masculine Blueprint framework. Together, we unpack what it really means to live from your masculine core while creating safety, connection, and trust in your relationships.   We talk about balancing firmness with heart, why composure beats control, and how to provide structure without domination. GS also dives into the importance of embodiment practices for men, how to stop reacting and start responding, and the role of clarity in building intimacy with your partner. This is a conversation about leadership that goes beyond the surface—helping men shift from fear and reactivity into grounded presence and intentional direction.     TIMELINE SUMMARY [0:00] - Welcome to the Dad Edge movement and introduction to GS Youngblood [1:56] - GS's bestselling books and the Masculine Blueprint framework [2:28] - What it means to live from your masculine core [3:08] - Why composure is more powerful than control in leadership [5:03] - Growing up with an intense father and lessons for parenting [6:23] - Balancing firmness and love with your kids [7:30] - Relational masculinity: strength with empathy [9:21] - The artful blend of clarity and heart in family leadership [12:17] - Clarity as the foundation of effective masculine leadership [13:33] - The “nice guy” trap and why men seek external validation [15:10] - Why grounding your nervous system must come before clarity [16:57] - Daily embodiment practices for staying present and calm [20:06] - Breathwork, meditation, and awareness as tools for men [23:12] - How embodiment reduces fixation and increases intimacy [27:59] - The energetic flow between men and women in communication [30:08] - Renewing curiosity in long-term marriage and intimacy [32:18] - Why women crave being known and understood [33:42] - Emotional safety as the gateway to sexual connection [38:15] - The three parts of the Masculine Blueprint explained [40:07] - Respond vs. react: staying grounded under pressure [44:14] - “You may not be the problem, but you are the solution.” [45:16] - Providing structure without domination—clarity plus inclusion [48:32] - The spectrum of leadership: tenderness to directness [50:01] - Sexual tension, rejection, and how men can hold ground [52:11] - Why sexuality is vulnerable for men and how to own it [54:31] - Avoiding the “hurt boy” response in relationships [56:00] - When women need men to be bigger than their moods [57:44] - Staying grounded when intimacy needs don't align [1:00:12] - The power of presence in building intimacy over time     5 KEY TAKEAWAYS   1. Composure Beats Control True masculine leadership isn't about domination—it's about staying grounded, calm, and clear even when emotions run high. 2. Firmness With Heart Creates Trust Children and partners thrive when a man brings clarity and structure without fear. The combination of strength and empathy builds long-term respect. 3. Embodiment Grounds the Nervous System Daily practices like breathwork and meditation keep men from being reactive, helping them lead from presence instead of anxiety or reactivity. 4. Curiosity Keeps Intimacy Alive Long-term relationships require ongoing curiosity. When women feel known and understood, emotional safety deepens—and so does sexual connection. 5. Men Are the Solution Even if you aren't the cause of conflict, you can choose to be the solution. Leadership means stepping up with clarity, direction, and presence to create connection.       LINKS & RESOURCES   GS Youngblood Website: https://gsyoungblood.com The Masculine in Relationship Book: https://gsyoungblood.com/books The Alliance and Boardroom - thedadedge.com/mastermind Dad Edge Podcast Website: https://www.thedadedge.com/podcast Join The Alliance: https://www.thedadedge.com/alliance 25 Questions to Spark Connection With Your Partner: https://www.thedadedge.com/25questions       If this episode gave you new insight into marriage, masculinity, or fatherhood, please rate, review, follow, and share the podcast.

Relationship coach Monica Tanner returns to discuss her new book "Bad Marriage Advice: 15 Myths That Are Keeping You Miserable" and challenges conventional wisdom that may be damaging marriages. She explores how common advice like "happy wife, happy life" and "don't sweat the small stuff" creates imbalanced relationships, poor communication patterns, and prevents couples from addressing issues before they become serious problems.• "Happy wife, happy life" places too much responsibility on women for the emotional atmosphere while encouraging men to silence their own needs• "Divorce is not an option" can prevent couples from growing and making necessary changes when they believe they're stuck regardless of effort• Instead of compromise where nobody gets what they want, try collaboration through curiosity about each other's underlying needs• Newlyweds should establish a relationship with a coach/counselor early as prevention rather than waiting for crisis• "Don't sweat the small stuff" ignores how minor irritations become major resentments—address issues while they're still small• Most relationship patterns stem from childhood programming and past experiences that shape automatic reactions• The key to stronger marriages is consciousness (understanding yourself and your partner) and effective communication• Happily ever after is possible when couples view marriage as a "people-growing machine" that helps them become their best selvesFind Monica Tanner's book at badmarriageadvice.com or learn more about her work at monicatanner.com.Two Awesome PeopleNew Episodes Every Monday and Thursday!Listen on: Apple Podcasts SpotifyVisit our site for FREE relationship resources and regular giveaways: Strongermarriage.org Podcast.stongermarriage.org YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@StrongerMarriageLife TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@strongermarriagelife Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/strongermarriagelife/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/strongermarriage/ Facebook Marriage Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/770019130329579 Dr. Dave Schramm: http://drdaveschramm.com http://drdavespeaks.com Dr. Liz Hale: http://www.drlizhale.com/

After 14 years of marriage, we've learned that love, growth, and plenty of laughter are the real markers of success. In this special anniversary episode of Our Uncommon Life, we celebrate our journey as a couple by asking each other fun (and sometimes unexpected!) questions:What's the best piece of marriage advice we'd give to someone starting out?Which memories stand out most from the past 14 years?What are we most proud of in our marriage and businesses?And—how exactly did Vena shock Zac with her take on long-term love?As married entrepreneurs, we've built businesses, taken big risks, and traveled the world together...all while making our marriage the foundation that supports it all.

Carlos Evans is the founder of C.R. Evans Ministries. Carlos was born in Puerto Rico, where he was an avid athlete throughout his high school and college years. At the university level, Carlos studied Theology and was very active in his church. It was during that time that the tragic events of September 11th occurred, and he felt compelled to join the family legacy of service in the United States Marine Corps -- and originally planned to join as a Chaplain.    Carlos served three tours of duty in Iraq and was assigned to Afghanistan for his fourth deployment. In May 2010, he was the squad leader on foot patrol when he stepped on an improvised explosive device.   The blast took both of his legs and his left hand. Medically discharged after his rehab at Walter Reed, Carlos served in the Marine Corps for eight years.  Carlos is now a minister with the Assemblies of God USA, a Wounded Warrior Spokesman, and a motivational speaker.   He and his wife, Rosemarie co-authored a book called Standing Together, an inspirational story of a wounded warrior and an enduring love.  They reside in Orlando, Florida, and they have two beautiful daughters.   If you'd like to contact Carlos or get a copy of his book, just go to his website at http://www.crevans.org    ----------------------     If you want to help us transform the lives of even MORE MEN for God's glory, please take a minute to leave us a helpful REVIEW on iTunes: http://www.rmcpodcast.com and SHARE this podcast with any young man (or men) you're mentoring or discipling.   Talk with Dr. Joe 1-on-1: Are you tired and stuck? Want to go to get your faith, marriage, family, career and finances back on track?  Then maybe it's time you got a coach.

Marriage advice is everywhere, but much of it is outdated, misguided, or flat-out harmful to your relationship, no matter how well-intentioned it may be.• Happy couples don't fight - FALSE: Conflict is like exercise for your relationship and helps you grow stronger• The myth of "don't sweat the small stuff" can lead to an explosion after years of suppressing irritation• Compromise is outdated advice that leaves both partners with less than they want• Collaboration creates solutions that multiply the best of both positions instead of subtracting from each• Love is a foundation but requires communication skills, conflict resolution, and intentional connection to build lasting marriage• Your differences aren't proof you picked the wrong person - they can become your greatest strengths when you learn to navigate them together• Believing these myths sets expectations that don't match reality, which creates resentmentTo be part of my book launch team for "Bad Marriage Advice: Debunking Myths That Will Make You Miserable and What To Do Instead", releasing October 1st, email me at moni@monicatanner.com.

In this powerful episode, trauma-informed life coach and codependency recovery expert Lisa A. Romano explores the hidden dangers of falling for charisma—especially for adult children of narcissistic or emotionally immature parents. If you've ever been drawn to someone magnetic and charming, only to feel emotionally used, discarded, or confused, this episode will help you understand the deeper psychological dynamics at play. In This Episode, You'll Learn: Why individuals with abandonment trauma and codependent traits are especially susceptible to charm How narcissists use charisma as a tool of emotional manipulation and control The devastating impact of betrayal by someone who once made you feel special, seen, or chosen How to distinguish real connection from performative affection Why ignoring your gut instincts leads to emotional disorientation—and how to start trusting yourself again Why This Matters Charisma is not the same as character. For those who have experienced childhood emotional neglect, the attention of a charismatic partner can feel intoxicating—like love, validation, and safety all rolled into one. But when that charm is weaponized by someone with narcissistic tendencies, it can leave you emotionally devastated and doubting your sense of reality. This episode is for anyone ready to wake up from the spell of manipulative charm and step into a more grounded, self-aware, and emotionally empowered life.

Join Dave and Bethlie as they continue a study on a few select chapters of the book Ten Pillars of an Awesome Marriage by Charles Shoemaker.    PART 2 5. Chapter 5 Conflict Resolution Goal - not to avoid but to handle wisely Illustration of Lady Astor to Winston Churchill - If you were my husband, I would give you poison; if you were my wife, I would take it! P. 85 Swindoll Quote Frequently, marital warfare is in the trenches of belligerence or moodiness. Some battles are night attacks or surprise assaults. Others are cold wars of stoic silence.  Cruel methods of torture are also employed—public criticism, fearful threats, intimidation, ugly sarcasm, and hateful remarks designed to put down one's mate. Such tactics are popular . . . but wrong because they are unfair and they never lead to domestic peace.” P. 87 PFS - personal filtering system Age Gender Education Life experiences Culture Temperament  Skills Personality Spirituality How do you resolve conflicts Be right with God Be swift to hear and slow to speak Own it when you are wrong Stay focused on issue at hand Face conflicts with a team mindset We not me A marriage struggles when it has two “I”s

In this heartfelt episode of the Dad Edge Podcast, I'm joined once again by my wife, Jessica Hagner, to share an inside look at how we approach marriage, parenting, and family life as a team. From building respect and handling conflict to raising four boys with shared values, this conversation is packed with personal stories, laughter, and real-life strategies for staying connected through all of life's ups and downs.   We talk about how we've learned to operate in parenting, the role of respect in every interaction, and the tools that help us resolve conflict without damaging trust. Jessica opens up about her perspective as a wife and mother, and together, we discuss the importance of modeling the behavior we want to see in our kids. Whether you're in the early years of marriage or decades in, this episode offers encouragement and actionable ways to strengthen your family relationships.     TIMELINE SUMMARY [0:00] - Welcome and why this conversation with Jessica matters [2:12] - The role of mutual respect in keeping a marriage strong [5:07] - How we handle conflict and keep trust intact [9:15] - Parenting as a united front and setting shared expectations [13:28] - Balancing structure and flexibility with four boys [16:44] - Teaching respect by modeling it in our marriage [20:15] - How we navigate disagreements in front of our kids [23:51] - Creating space for connection in a busy household [27:06] - The importance of making each child feel seen and valued [30:42] - Our approach to discipline without creating resentment [34:25] - How parenting styles evolve as kids grow [38:18] - Keeping romance alive while raising a family [42:56] - The value of open, honest communication in marriage [46:39] - Leading our family spiritually and emotionally [50:20] - Why grace matters as much as structure in parenting [54:14] - Final reflections on building a family rooted in respect and love     5 KEY TAKEAWAYS   1. Respect Is the Foundation Every strong marriage and family dynamic begins with mutual respect—how we speak to each other, handle disagreements, and set the tone for our household. 2. Conflict Can Strengthen Connection When handled with honesty and empathy, disagreements can build trust instead of breaking it. It's not about avoiding conflict—it's about navigating it well. 3. Parent as a Team Kids thrive when they see their parents united. Operating from the same playbook creates stability and prevents division in the home. 4. Model the Behavior You Want to See Children learn more from what you do than what you say. By demonstrating respect, patience, and grace, we set the example for how they'll treat others. 5. Grace Balances Structure Rules and boundaries are essential, but grace creates a safe and loving environment where kids can learn from their mistakes without fear.       LINKS & RESOURCES   • Download the 25 Questions to Spark Connection With Your Partner: https://www.thedadedge.com/25questions • Dad Edge Podcast Website: https://www.thedadedge.com • Join The Alliance: https://www.thedadedge.com/alliance • Listen to More Episodes: https://www.thedadedge.com/podcast • Tools & Resources: https://www.thedadedge.com/tools       If this episode encouraged you or gave you new insight into your marriage or parenting, please rate, follow, review, and share the podcast.
