Part 2In this episode of the To Be Better podcast, Chris and Peaches dive deep into a raw, unfiltered 20-year marriage story filled with childhood trauma, family chaos, serial infidelity, emotional cheating, open relationships, and failed poly experiments. They read a powerful email from a wife questioning whether she's still compatible with her husband after decades of betrayal, gaslighting, and weaponized empathy, and explore how trauma bonds, chaos addiction, and unhealed wounds keep people trapped in relationships that no longer feel safe. Along the way they tackle topics like alexithymia, ADHD, autism, nervous system responses, hypervigilance, and how undiagnosed neurodivergence can impact communication, trust, intimacy, and long-term commitment. You'll hear blunt, practical relationship advice on rebuilding or finally walking away: when to stop giving more chances, how to protect your peace, what emotional cheating actually looks like, how to set non-negotiable boundaries, and why “life experience over degrees” matters in real-world marriage problems. Chris and Peaches break down victim accountability, people pleasing, choosing stability over chaos, and how to create a truly monogamous relationship after years of betrayal. If you're searching for honest conversations about marriage, infidelity recovery, long-term relationships, couples communication, spiritual growth, and becoming a better partner, this is your episode.Disclaimer: We are not professionals.

206 If you've ever read a marriage book, heard some relationship advice that seemed logical, or sat in a therapy session and thought, "Why is this so much harder for me than it seems to be for everyone else?"—there is a biological reason for that.Today we dive into what that is, and why a lot of traditional marriage advice just doesn't work for us as highly sensitive people. The truth is, most marriage advice does not take into account the HSP reality – our highly sensitive nervous systems and brains. So of course it's going to flop for us if we are not first respecting and honoring our physiological differences and needs.To expect traditional marriage advice to work for us is like expecting an orchid to bloom in a desert. It's not going to happen. So tune in to hear the top 5 popular pieces of advice that fail us sensitives, and what actually works instead – all illustrated with HSP-resonant nature analogies (sometimes some good old garden metaphors can really clear things up!)By the end of this episode, you're going to understand why, to thrive in your relationship, you don't need to try harder at traditional marriage advice's top down approach – like communicating with specific phrases– and that nourishing your sensitive system at the root level is what will make the biggest difference–and make the rest come quite naturally. What does that mean?

This video is a raw update on what it actually means to be a good man today, beyond polite “gentleman rules.” You'll hear a clear breakdown of ten core commitments built on ownership, discipline, emotional mastery, time leadership, and leading your home with real trust and respect, aimed at the man who wants his woman to feel safe with him, his kids to look up to him, and himself to respect the man in the mirror. Expect direct truth, practical examples, and accountability you can't outsource, no victim stories, no motivational fluff. The focus is men's self improvement that holds up in real life, becoming a better husband, a better father, a better leader, and a man who keeps his word, carries weight in his work, chooses solid brotherhood, and lives for purpose and legacy instead of comfort.Disclaimer: We are not professionals.

This is stand alone content by Chris. Something I am doing on youtube, and decided to put them together here for you as well. Instead of  daily drops like I do there. I am putting it here in quarters. This episode series breaks down the first four principles of Miyamoto Musashi's Dokkōdō and translates them into practical guidance for modern men seeking self mastery, emotional regulation, and leadership in their homes and relationships. Through a grounded and direct lens, these principles explore detachment from unhealthy desire, acceptance of reality, freedom from dependence on pleasure or comfort, and humility in perception. This breakdown connects ancient Stoic and Zen philosophy with modern psychology, Adlerian responsibility, and personal accountability, helping listeners understand how internal discipline shapes external outcomes. If you are searching for content on Musashi, the Dokkōdō, masculine growth, self control, or emotional resilience, this episode offers a clear and applicable framework. The first four principles of the Dokkōdō are presented not as abstract philosophy, but as lived standards that expose ego, victim thinking, and reactive behavior. This podcast episode examines how attachment fuels suffering, how resistance to reality creates chaos, and how unchecked desire weakens leadership in marriage, fatherhood, and purpose. By tying Musashi's teachings to journaling, self reflection, and daily decision making, this breakdown challenges men to own their interpretations and take responsibility for their results. Ideal for listeners interested in personal growth, men's work, discipline, and timeless wisdom applied to modern life, this episode serves as both a mirror and a call to action.Disclaimer: We are not professionals.

Part 1In this episode of the 2 Be Better Podcast, Chris and Peaches kick off Season 4 with real talk about what it actually takes to build a regulated, connected life and marriage. They share behind-the-scenes updates on their growing community, retreats, and content, including the upcoming “I Am Whole” women's retreat with seminars on feminine embodiment, devotional motherhood and wifehood, shadow work, nervous system regulation, and self-liberation. If you're craving feminine energy work, women's retreats, self-care, and practical marriage tools from a husband and wife who actually live this, this conversation sets the tone for intentional growth in 2026 and beyond. From there, they dive deep into a YouTube comment about a defensive husband with childhood trauma and unpack what “30 years of conditioning” really means, how reactivity forms, and how to talk to a defensive partner without blowing up the relationship. Using real examples from their marriage and a powerful email from a Patreon member in a 22-year trauma-bonded relationship, they tackle the hard questions: how to stop living in survival mode, how to break generational trauma for your kids, what the roommate phase really is, when you're just not trying versus when it's actually time to let go, and how to rebuild intimacy by choice, not by accident. If you've ever wondered whether to stay, leave, or fight for your marriage, this episode gives you grounded marriage advice, communication scripts, mindset shifts, and perspective on healing trauma in relationships so you can make a clear, conscious decision about your future.Disclaimer: We are not professionals.

This is a raw, unfiltered breakdown of how modern media, politics, and digital platforms profit from fear, outrage, and division. The speaker walks through how traditional news, social media influencers, political parties, and algorithms all operate on the same business model, emotional hijacking. You will hear a clear explanation of why headlines are framed to provoke, why outrage spreads faster than truth, and how people are slowly trained to stop thinking, stop questioning, and start fighting each other instead. The video connects media manipulation to real-world consequences like broken relationships, polarized families, overstimulated nervous systems, and the loss of empathy and curiosity in everyday conversations What you can expect is not a partisan rant, but a deeper look at power, incentives, and accountability. The video challenges left versus right thinking and reframes the issue as people versus systems that benefit from chaos, debt, inflation, and distraction. It explores government spending, term limits, insider trading, lobbying, and currency devaluation while tying all of it back to personal responsibility, emotional regulation, and the ability to have honest conversations without hatred. If you feel overwhelmed by the news, tired of culture wars, or frustrated by how divided society has become, this video is designed to help you slow down, see the manipulation clearly, and reclaim your ability to think, connect, and engage without being emotionally controlled.Disclaimer: We are not professionals.

In this side piece episode of the 2 Be Better Podcast, we pull back the curtain on our 124 page couples retreat workbook and walk you through exactly what we teach at our marriage retreats. You'll hear us dive into the masculine and feminine, yin and yang dynamics, identity, ego, self discipline, emotional regulation, and how your inner world becomes the atmosphere of your relationship. We read straight from the workbook Peaches built for our 2 Be Better couples retreat and break down chapters on conflict, leadership in the home, time and energy management, communication without assumption, and somatic practices for couples. If you're searching for real marriage advice, couples retreat content, masculine and feminine energy in relationships, or long term relationship tools that actually work in real life, this video gives you a front row seat to how we coach couples at our retreats. You can expect practical frameworks, raw examples, and a ton of journal prompts you can use with your partner tonight, even if you never attend one of our retreats. We walk through how identity and ego show up under pressure, why self regulation and discipline matter more than good intentions, and how to repair small ruptures before they become big resentments. We also unpack how masculine repair and feminine repair look different, how to stay connected when you're both exhausted, and how to build emotional safety so intimacy, affection, and sex actually thrive. Whether you're a married couple, engaged, or in a serious relationship looking for conflict resolution tools, communication skills, and journal prompts for couples, this episode is a full mini workshop on building a steady, intentional, “2 Be Better” kind of marriage.Disclaimer: We are not professionals.

Viewers can expect hard truths, direct coaching, and honest reflection on what it actually takes to change your life when motivation is gone and excuses are easy. This video speaks directly to men who feel broken but know there's more in them, fathers trying to lead better, partners questioning compatibility and growth, and anyone navigating self improvement, mental health, or relationship struggles. If you're searching for men's self growth, purpose driven masculinity, relationship advice without sugarcoating, or proof that progress is built one decision at a time, this episode will meet you exactly where you are and challenge you to move forward.Disclaimer: We are not professionals.

We talk about this all the time on the Ultimate Intimacy podcast — emotional intimacy and sexual intimacy go hand in hand. You can't expect a strong sex life if you're not emotionally connected first.For most people, especially many women desire doesn't start in the bedroom. It starts with feeling heard, valued, and emotionally safe. If that connection is missing, sexual intimacy often disappears right along with it.That's why when couples say, “Our intimacy isn't where we want it to be,” we usually ask them how the emotional connection is, and most the time it isn't connected either.When you focus on listening, showing appreciation, spending intentional time together, and connecting without pressure, walls come down and desire naturally begins to return.And here's the exciting part... when emotional intimacy improves, sexual intimacy often comes back stronger than ever. Couples become more open, playful, and connected, and intimacy turns into something you both look forward to again.So if you want a better intimate life, don't skip the foundation.Build emotional closeness first, and watch every part of your marriage thrive.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 Season 4 premiere of the To Be Better Podcast, Chris and Peaches look back on how a joke became a career, a community, and a movement, then dive straight into real life: bonus dad dynamics, parenting an autistic and ADHD son, and intentionally raising boys to be respectful, emotionally regulated young men. You will hear stories about work ethic, chivalry, opening doors, and a powerful moment with a Vietnam veteran that drives home why traditional values and gentlemanly behavior still matter. They also pull back the curtain on Peaches' new affirmations project, future PDF drops, and the idea of an intimate West Coast couples retreat at Point Lobos, showing you how they build family, business, and community on purpose. The heart of this episode is a raw email from a listener who left an emotionally and physically abusive relationship after a 15 year marriage and a childhood soaked in man hating and feminist indoctrination that labeled traditional women as “weak.” Chris and Peaches unpack trauma bonding, why people keep going back to abusers, how percentages like “he's good 85 percent of the time” are delusion, and what it actually takes to walk away, grieve the fantasy, and rebuild self respect. They tackle modern feminism, traditional marriage, AI and the economy, the collapse of standards in dating, and the responsibility to raise the next generation not to tolerate abuse. If you are looking for blunt relationship advice, traditional relationship and marriage guidance, help healing from abusive relationships, or practical masculine and feminine polarity talk without fluff, this episode is for you.Disclaimer: We are not professionals.

In this video, Chris breaks down the 6th Hermetic Principle, Cause and Effect, and makes it painfully practical for real life, discipline, and relationships. You'll learn why “nothing happens by accident” isn't about fate, it's about patterns, inputs, and the results you keep getting, even when you don't like admitting your part in them. He ties cause and effect to karma, habit loops, personal responsibility, and why victim mentality is a cause that produces predictable effects like stagnation, resentment, and feeling stuck. If you want better outcomes in your marriage, your mindset, and your day to day life, this is a straight shot to the leverage points. Chris walks through common marriage “chain reactions” like criticism, avoidance, broken agreements, lack of repair, and how those causes turn into distance, distrust, and dead intimacy over time. Then he gives you tools you can actually use, like a cause audit, lag time awareness, and a language upgrade using I statements versus you statements to lower defensiveness and keep connection while telling the truth.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/2-be-better--5828421/support.

In this episode we break down Chapter 5 of Nedra Glover Tawwab's Set Boundaries, Find Peace and show you exactly what boundary violations look like in real life. We walk through micro and macro boundary violations, microaggressions, oversharing, guilt trips, enmeshment, codependency, trauma bonding and counter dependency, using real examples of toxic relationships, emotional manipulation, mixed messages, people pleasing and walking on eggshells in dating, marriage, family, friendships and at work. You will hear scripts and phrases to call out gaslighting and guilt tripping, how to say no without over explaining, how to shut down trauma dumping and microaggressions, and how to stop drowning for people who refuse to stand in three inches of water.If you are a people pleaser, recovering codependent, or stuck in a toxic relationship, this conversation will help you recognize red flags, set clear boundaries and reclaim your time, energy and peace. We close with powerful reflection questions on how your life will change with healthy boundaries and challenge you to pick one relationship where you finally stand your ground instead of being the ground they walk on, then share your biggest boundary struggle and what you're doing to work on it in the comments so your story can help someone else.

In this video, you'll learn the Hermetic Principle of Rhythm and how it explains the cycles you keep living through, the highs where you feel unstoppable, and the lows where you question everything. Chris breaks rhythm down as the “breath of life,” expansion and contraction, push and pull, growth and rest, and shows why your mood, motivation, money, creativity, confidence, and even your sense of purpose naturally rise and fall. You can expect practical clarity on why you suffer when you demand permanent momentum, or panic during an “exhale,” and how to stop letting temporary swings make permanent decisions. You'll also get tools you can use immediately, including a one minute breath reset, a two-plan method that builds a high tide plan and a low tide plan, and a no major decision rule for those moments when you're at the top or bottom of the wave. The episode applies rhythm to relationships, discipline, and relapse patterns, and finishes with a hard, direct segment on depression as an ego loop, identity fusion, and self-focused narration, plus how to interrupt that loop with usefulness, service, behavior, and small wins that rebuild confidence. If you've been stuck in cycles of intensity and collapse, this will give you language, structure, and a steady way forward.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/2-be-better--5828421/support.

In this episode of the Hermetic Principles series, you'll get a practical breakdown of the Hermetic Principle of Polarity, the idea that “opposites” are usually the same thing on a spectrum, different in degree, not different in kind. You'll learn how polarity explains emotional transmutation, how to move from fear toward courage, anger toward clarity, shame toward humility, and how to stop getting trapped in all or nothing thinking. Expect real, grounded examples, plus an easy “ladder” method you can use to shift your state one notch at a time instead of trying to fake a total transformation. This video also takes polarity straight into relationships, attachment, and conflict, including the hard truth that love and hate can sit side by side because they're both high-intensity attachment, and that the real opposite of love is indifference. You'll hear a raw, useful talk on post-divorce obsession, rumination, and how to convert that energy into boundaries, rebuilding, and clean detachment, without lying to yourself about what you feel. It wraps with polarity in leadership and masculine and feminine dynamics, showing how strength and softness can coexist when you learn to control degree, not perform a persona.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/2-be-better--5828421/support.

Does your wife stiffen each time you touch her? Does she pull away each time you reach out? Are you tired of feeling physically rejected? If you answered yes then this episode is a must listen. In it, I'll cover the causes for this pattern and marriage advice that will solve it. Be sure to listen to it with your wife to see if she would make any edits. 

In this episode of the Hermetic Principles series, we break down the Third Hermetic Principle, Vibration, and translate “everything vibrates” into something you can actually use in real life. You'll learn how your inner state, your nervous system, your emotions, and your “baseline” shape what you notice, what you interpret, and how you respond, especially under stress. This is a grounded conversation about frequency, vibe, and energy alignment, without turning it into vague woo woo, because the goal is clear, state management that changes outcomes.You can expect practical tools you can apply immediately, including a baseline check before hard conversations, simple breathwork patterns to downshift fast, and a “ten second” reset you can use mid trigger to respond with clarity instead of reacting. We also get into why most relationship fights are about state, not content, how echo chambers and inputs affect your baseline, and how to protect your vibration by changing what you consume and the environment you live in. If you want better communication, better conflict repair, stronger leadership energy, and more control over your reactions, this is the episode.Disclaimer: We are not professionals.

In this end of year onesie episode of the 2 Be Better Podcast, Chris and Peaches look back on three years of marriage work, spiritual awakening, and building “The Tribe” from a simple “let's see what happens” show into a movement that is actually changing homes. They read raw gratitude emails from listeners whose relationships, mental health, and families were transformed through better communication, masculine and feminine polarity, and choosing not to quit when life tested them. From saved marriages and healthy divorces to babies, new friendships, and a community that does wellness checks at 3 a.m, this is a long form gratitude episode for anyone serious about healing, love, and growth. You will also hear where they are going next, from psychedelic integration coaching and ayahuasca ceremony work, to plans for land, retreats, a mushroom based spiritual “church,” future birth and midwife support, and a non profit to help Tribe members in real crisis. Chris opens up about softening his anger, finding compassion, and what it really costs to become a better husband, father, and leader, while Peaches talks about peace, feminine energy, and the emotional income that comes from service. If you want honest marriage advice, relationship coaching in real time, and a community that refuses to let you stay a victim, this episode will push you to stop flirting with your dream, put your dues in, and be the person who finishes.Disclaimer: We are not professionals.

Disclaimer: We are not professionals. This podcast is opinioned based and from life experience. This is for entertainment purposes only. Opinions helped by our guests may not reflect our own. But we love a good conversation.In this 2 Be Better Podcast deep dive, Chris and Peaches break down shadow work in plain English and show you how to use it without burning your life down. You will learn what the “shadow” actually is, why it is not evil, and how it shows up as overreactions, people pleasing, perfectionism, jealousy, shutdown, and that harsh inner critic that never shuts up. They walk you through the three layer model of trigger, meaning, and action urge, how your nervous system sets the ceiling for your insight, and why naming your parts, your stories, and your body sensations gives you your power back. You will also hear how shadow work ties directly into intimacy, why unspoken wounds get blamed on your partner, and how to start telling the truth about your reactions without turning it into self attack or character assassination. From there, they move into ten step by step shadow work exercises you can do alone or as a couple, including “the story I tell myself,” family echoes from your childhood home, trigger maps and care plans, resentment to request, ritual release, values to behaviors, and future memory scenes that help you manifest different outcomes instead of repeating the same fight in new outfits. You will get concrete scripts for naming your parts, asking for space without stonewalling, coming back with one clear request, using check ins, repair rehearsal, and parts dialogue so you can stop living in survival mode and start living as your real self. If you are looking for shadow work for couples, nervous system regulation, marriage communication tools, Jungian shadow work, or practical spiritual growth that you can use in real relationships, this episode gives you a full framework plus a free downloadable PDF of the exercises on the 2BeBetter.com resources tab so you can follow along and actually do the workBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/2-be-better--5828421/support.

In this episode, we break down the second Hermetic Principle, Correspondence, and translate “as above, so below, as within, so without” into real life, practical language. You'll learn how your inner standards, beliefs, and nervous system show up in your habits, your communication, your boundaries, and your results, and why the same “fractal” patterns repeat across marriage, masculinity, parenting, discipline, finances, and self respect. This isn't mysticism for the sake of sounding deep, it's a clear lens for spotting the hidden structure beneath your daily choices, then making small corrections that compound.You can expect direct examples that hit home, like how “the straw that broke the camel's back” is never about the straw, it's about the load you ignored for too long, and why conflict is usually about trust, safety, respect, appreciation, power, and fear of abandonment, not the trash, tone, sex, budget, or in laws. The episode also gives you a simple framework to “upgrade the pattern” by naming the cycle without blame, identifying the belief driving it, and repeating the correction until it becomes your new default, plus a real talk segment on why change is hard, how familiar pain protects identity, and how self respect becomes the fuel for transformation.Disclaimer: We are not professionals.

In this Voice of the Broken episode, Chris reads and responds to three raw listener emails that hit the real pressure points men carry, marriage separation and reconciliation, stepfamily tension, co-parenting boundaries, and the mental load of trying to lead your home while life keeps swinging. You'll hear a Patreon member share how writing his story, prioritizing quality time with his wife, and stepping up at work helped turn a failing marriage around, plus Chris's blunt coaching on staying present, dropping the future panic, and handling an ex with clear, firm boundaries. The episode also dives into a 39-year-old man's relationship history, porn addiction recovery, trust issues, and the desire to start a family later in life, with practical advice on values alignment, dating with intention, and why journaling is a non-negotiable tool for self-leadership. Finally, a 21-year-old Army reservist and mechanic shares a heavy upbringing marked by addiction, instability, and betrayal, and Chris breaks down how to protect your mental health, build real community, set boundaries with a toxic parent, and create friendships that match your standards, especially when you feel lonely and misunderstood.Disclaimer: We are not professionals.

I recorded this for our Patreon. I have received a lot of positive feed back on this. So I am sharing it publicly. I hope you enjoy it. In this podcast, you'll learn the first Hermetic Principle, Mentalism, and how your mind shapes your lived reality through the meanings you assign, the attention you rehearse, and the actions you take. Chris breaks down how “raw data becomes a story, the story creates emotion, emotion pressures action, and action creates consequences,” then ties it directly to Adlerian psychology, mindset training, and practical personal responsibility. If you're into Hermetic Principles, manifestation with backbone, mental discipline, and self mastery that actually changes behavior, this episode gives you a clear framework to stop confusing interpretation with reality and start steering outcomes on purpose.You can expect concrete tools you can use immediately in relationships, work, and daily life, including widening the gap between stimulus and response, generating three plausible meanings before you react, and running an “attention audit” so you stop feeding resentment loops, doomscrolling, and negative self talk. Chris also shares a relationship repair line that turns accusation into curiosity, plus a simple morning and night practice to train your mental filter and build evidence based confidence. This is for anyone who wants stronger emotional regulation, cleaner communication, better relationships, and a spiritual lens that stays grounded in standards, values, and real world results.Disclaimer: We are not professionals.

In this Voice of the Broken episode on the 2 Be Better Podcast, Chris Burkett reads a powerful listener update about healing the father wound, surviving childhood abuse, and breaking generational cycles. You'll hear a raw story of parental alienation, self worth collapsing under lies, then a decade later, reconnection, forgiveness, grief, and the moment every boy craves, “I'm proud of you.” Chris weaves in his own experience, why psychological warfare hits different than bruises, and why civil co parenting matters if you don't want to quietly sabotage your child's identity, confidence, and future relationships. Expect real talk on how men rebuild themselves when they've been trained to believe they aren't enough, plus practical tools that actually move the needle, journaling, community, honest accountability, and learning to give grief a place to go instead of letting it rot into anger. The episode also touches on the role of plant medicine experiences for perspective shifts, why being a stepdad can be deeply meaningful, and how to stop begging for love by becoming a man who can carry it, receive it, and aim it with intention. If you're dealing with toxic parents, estranged family, divorce fallout, depression, shame, or you're trying to become the one who ends the cycle for your kids, this one will land. Disclaimer: We are not professionals.

But we love a good conversation.In this episode we read a raw, vulnerable email from a long-time community member whose 14 year marriage has been rocked by emotional cheating, digital infidelity and self-sabotage on both sides. We break down her story of online flirting, texting clients, TikTok DMs, sending “innocent” selfies to other men, performance issues in the bedroom, hormone struggles, deep insecurity, mom burnout, and a husband who now considers them separated. You'll hear us call out rationalizations like “it was just a selfie,” “nothing sexual,” “we were separated in my head,” and “I don't know why I did it,” and dig into the truth about attention-seeking online, fantasy relationships, and how selfies, DMs, and secret conversations become emotional affairs that destroy trust, respect, and intimacy.We walk you through what accountability actually looks like after betrayal, how to stop blame shifting to “internal demons” and past trauma, how to apologize without justifying, and how to rebuild or walk away when digital cheating and emotional affairs have already crossed the line. We talk monogamy, open-phone policies, boundaries with the opposite sex, no-private-DM rules, parasocial relationships, stay-at-home mom resentment, the self-imposed prison of housework, and why your marriage will always mirror the effort you give it. If you're dealing with emotional cheating, online flirting, TikTok and Instagram DMs, low self-worth, or a partner who says you're “separated,” this marriage advice conversation will give you brutal honesty, practical language, and a clear standard for what real change and healing in a relationship actually require.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/2-be-better--5828421/support.

In this lighthearted and completely unscripted Christmas episode, Rusty and Heather shake things up with a game that was not planned and definitely not rehearsed. Heather presses play on a Christmas song and without warning, Rusty races to guess the title, and then—on the spot—has to turn that song into real, practical marriage advice. No notes. No preparation. Just quick thinking, honest insight, and a lot of laughter. What unfolds is a mix of singing, playful pressure, and surprisingly meaningful moments as familiar Christmas songs spark unexpected conversations about love, connection, and what really matters in marriage. The advice isn't polished or prepackaged—it's raw, spontaneous, and rooted in real life. This episode is a reminder that marriage growth doesn't always have to be heavy to be helpful. Sometimes the best wisdom shows up when guards are down, expectations are low, and joy leads the way. If you're looking for encouragement, laughs, and a fresh way to think about your marriage during the Christmas season, this one delivers. The Redeemed Marriage Website

But we love a good conversation.In this 2 Be Better Podcast deep dive, Chris and Peaches break down what the Divine Feminine and Sacred Masculine actually are, and why they are about energy and polarity, not just gender or body parts. They walk through a full framework of feminine energy as intuition, nurture, receptivity, beauty, empathy, and creative flow, and contrast it with the shadow side of chaotic emotions, manipulation, people pleasing, lack of boundaries, and losing yourself in others' needs. You will hear them connect Divine Feminine energy to Mother Earth, discernment, nervous system regulation, and learning to see emotions as sacred messengers instead of weakness, while also calling out toxic feminine traits and how they show up in gossip, drama, and constant validation seeking. From there they unpack Sacred Masculine energy as presence, integrity, direction, discipline, protection, courage, and stability, and then expose its shadow side of rigidity, control, domination, emotional distance, and achievement over presence. They show how Divine Feminine and Sacred Masculine work together in real relationships and marriages, including lesbian and gay couples, and explain why polarity, safety, trust, and leadership matter more than trendy “gender role” arguments. You will get practical ideas for getting into your feminine energy with creativity, dance, art, self care, boundaries, journaling, and breathwork, and stepping into sacred masculine with physical health, stretching, mental discipline, purpose, and actually using the knowledge you have. If you are searching for divine feminine healing, masculine energy in relationships, polarity in marriage, conscious partnership, shadow work, or spiritual growth in love, this episode gives you a complete blueprint, not just vague internet quotes.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/2-be-better--5828421/support.

They talk about Patreon growth, retreats, kids evolving emotionally, and Chris's upcoming daily affirmation book with light lunar and planetary touches, giving you a grounded picture of what intentional marriage, parenting, and money stewardship actually look like in real time.

Chris and Peaches talk through exit strategies, why your kids' safety and emotional stability come before keeping a man, how addiction to charts and gambling-level crypto risk destroys connection, and why therapy, accountability, and doing your own “dirty work” after trauma matter before you start dating again.

Throw back to season 1 ep 11. In this episode of the 2 Be Better Podcast, Chris and Peaches break down modern dating, monogamy, and why you should never enter a “committed” relationship if you still crave constant novelty and validation from other people. They unpack the difference between hookup culture, serial dating, and actually dating to marry, and they call out the mindset of “I just need something different” for what it is. You'll hear a raw conversation on monogamy vs polyamory, loyalty, sexual boredom, how to have honest conversations about sex and desire, and why you should not sacrifice your boundaries just to keep a partner who wants multiple sexual partners. They also walk through what healthy first dates should really look like, how to vet someone's character, red flags like being late, lack of ambition, constant victimhood, and why you should be dating to see if someone belongs in your life at all, not just to sleep with them.From there, they get into the hard stuff: how to communicate when you're hurt, how to ask “Do you want to solve or do you want to argue?”, how to use “I” statements without turning them into hidden accusations, and how to stop weaponizing pain in your marriage.
