In this Q&A, Cass coaches Rafael through what to do after you cheated on your wife and you genuinely want to rebuild trust.This is the episode if you cheated, you feel the weight of it, and you're serious about changing — not performing.What we cover:Why your language matters (“I basically cheated” keeps you stuck)Why guilt and shame can be a good sign (it means your character is still alive)What to do when you suspect your spouse is cheating back (deleted texts, assumptions, spirals)Why suspicion creates disconnection — and disconnection is how betrayal growsThe “cascade of betrayal” (44 breakdowns before an affair happens)What foundation-level change looks like (values, integrity, consistency, connection)How to rebuild trust without begging for relief from the consequencesIf you cheated and you want real change — this one will hit.

Send us Fan MailWhat happens when a married couple stops filtering and starts answering real questions?In this episode of Married AF, we put our marriage to the test with 7 brutally honest questions, the kind most couples think about but rarely say out loud.From annoying habits to secret turn-ons, from mental load struggles to role reversals, nothing is off-limits. Some answers are hilarious and some hit deeper than expected.And yes, there are moments where things get uncomfortably real.If you've ever wondered:“What does my spouse REALLY think about me?”“What habits am I getting away with?”“Would we even survive a role swap?”This episode is for you.PLUS: We tease next week's episode where the questions get even MORE intense.WHAT YOU'LL LEARN (WITHOUT REALIZING IT)Why small habits create big tension in marriageThe truth about mental load and why couples misunderstand itHow playful honesty can actually deepen connectionThe power of asking better questions (and actually listening)FAVORITE MOMENTSThe “free day” question that reveals what you really valueThe habit that almost every spouse secretly hatesThe subtle thing she does that he never missesThe “wife-coded” reality most men completely underestimateThe disclaimer every spouse should probably come with

Saving Struggling, Sexless, and Toxic Marriages.Kathryn Morrow, Author of Behind The White Picket Fence.I Got a Restraining Order… How Do I Become a Better Man Now?If you got hit with a restraining order and divorce papers… listen close.Being a “nice guy” didn't get you here.Lack of boundaries, emotional chaos, control, and covert contracts did.In this Marriage Q&A, Devin admits the truth: he was trying to force love, force connection, and “do the program” to save the marriage… not to fix himself.Then everything blew up—no contact order, kicked out of the house, shame, panic, desperation.We break down what actually creates change:why changing “for her” isn't real changehow desperation makes you MORE unsafe, not lessemotional regulation is step one (you can't lead what you can't control)“nice guy” manipulation and covert contracts (I did X, so you owe me Y)the habits men skip: journaling, reflection, core values, integrity, follow-throughand why the goal isn't “get her back”… it's become the kind of man who never needs an order againThis episode is a gut check for men who want to stop relying on external validation and start building real value from the inside out.

All of us are shaped by marriage, for better or worse, through our families of origin, our personal relationships, or the society in which we live. Based on our experiences, we either hold a high view of marriage as a sacred covenant between God and us, or a low view, where marriage is merely a meaningless formality. Regardless of our experiences, we need to align with God's perspective on marriage to heal from our past and move forward to experience the blessings God intended.Billy LileSunday, February 8 Live at 9:15 AM

After Monday's incredible conversation with Russ Hudson, we're diving into our January theme: Instincts & Intimacy. Today's episode reveals how your dominant instinct (Self-Preservation, Social, or Sexual) often shows up differently when dating versus being married. We talk through not only how those differences may look, but how you can still try to find the healthiest and most achievable desires you're missing from those early honeymoon days. Break down each instinct's dating “performance” versus marriage reality, plus how to work with (not against) your and your partner's instinctual drives as you do so. Watch on YouTube! Don't forget!

A single thread runs through today's conversation: real authority is sacrificial, and real hope is active. We open with gratitude and prayer, then move straight into Ephesians 5 to explore how love and respect are not competing claims but a bonded calling. Husbands are charged to give themselves up, not to grasp for power; wives are called to respect that costly leadership, not to disappear. We share a hard truth from a broken marriage—two people “forgot they needed each other”—and talk candidly about how daily dependence protects a covenant from slow erosion.From there, Revelation 21 lifts our eyes to the New Jerusalem, where God wipes every tear and night never falls. The measured walls, radiant stones, and open gates are more than poetry; they are a blueprint for courage now. We connect that hope to the rhythms of praise and justice in Psalm 149 and the steady, capable work pictured in Proverbs 31. Far from stereotypes, these texts sketch a household that builds value, serves the poor, and strengthens the city gates—an economy of trust that begins at the kitchen table and ripples outward.History puts skin on these ideals. We honor First Lieutenant Alexander “Sandy” Bonnyman Jr., whose leadership at Tarawa—organizing men under fire, advancing when pinned down, and holding ground at the cost of his life—shows what authority looks like under pressure. Then we reflect on President Truman's 1951 Christmas message, a clear-eyed call to pursue a just peace with faith and resolve. Finally, we turn to our moment: the need to prepare our communities, support local first responders, and practice readiness without losing compassion. Faith shapes homes, homes shape citizens, and citizens steward freedom best when they remember who—and what—they are willing to serve.If this resonates, share it with a friend, subscribe for more, and leave a review to help others find the show.

On this episode of This vs. That, we talk with Harrison Scott Key, author of the incredibly popular book "How To Stay Married" as well as "Congratulations, Who Are You Again?" and "The World's Largest Man" (winner of the Thurber Prize for American Humor). We explore the theme of fairytale versus real marriage through Harrison's raw, honest, and often humorous account of marital betrayal. Harrison shares his journey of discovering his wife was in love with their neighbor, the separation that followed, and the challenging path to reconciliation. We discuss how he transformed this painful experience into a book, including his wife's perspective, and examine how his simple, naive expectations of marriage collided with the complex reality of betrayal and forgiveness. This fascinating conversation reveals the universal aspects of marriage through Harrison's particular story of heartbreak and ultimately, hope.-----We're really excited to tell you about Anchored Virtual's new podcast, Consult the Counselor.

Here on the very first episode of the year on the Enneagram & Marriage Podcast, we're exploring what meaningful resolutions look like for each Enneagram type within marriage. We'll talk about why blanket advice like "communicate better" might resonate differently with a One than it does with a Seven. We'll discuss how a Four's path to being more present looks vastly different from a Three's journey to the same goal. Most importantly, we also focus on authenticity. Because the most powerful resolutions aren't about changing who you are - they're about becoming more fully yourself in your marriage. They're about understanding your unique gifts and challenges, and using that awareness to grow closer to your partner. So whether you're an Eight learning to embrace vulnerability, a Two discovering healthy boundaries, or a Nine finding your voice in your relationship - this episode is about crafting resolutions that honor your true self while strengthening your marriage. Let's move beyond the surface-level changes that don't stick, and instead, dive into the kind of intentional growth that transforms relationships from the inside out. Are you ready? Let's dive in - together! Also, our E + M Membership, the Collective, is here and open for membership now Jan 1-8th!!

Do you ever feel like your spouse is the problem in your marriage? In this message, Pastor Nate Nupanga shares how even in the best marriages, it can sometimes feel difficult to fit and how God will use marriage to help you grow.

In this episode (Part 2 of a 2-part series), Derek, Gabrielle, and Scott discuss what practical implications of what the Bible says about roles in marriage. We discuss how biblical roles play out in marriage with specific examples from our own marriages.Scriptures:Proverbs 18:2, Phil 2:3-4, Romans 12:10, 1 Corinthians 12Resources - We're including more resources that normal since we know this is a topic about which many husbands and wives have questions.From God Questions - What is egalitarianism?From Got Questions - What is complementarianism?From Harris Creek – a Message from JP - Real MarriageMust Wives Submit to Husbands?From the Council of Biblical Manhood and Womanhood - Summaries of the Egalitarian and Complementarian PositionsQuestions to discuss:1) Read 1 Corinthians 12 and discuss with your spouse.

In this episode (Part 1 of a 2-part series), Derek, Gabrielle, and Scott discuss what the Bible says about roles in marriage. We discuss different views on marital roles, and even share some of our own different views on this topic. Roles are often misunderstood and abused, so we all need to think (and act) rightly on this topic.Scriptures:Ephesians 5:22-28, Genesis 1:26-27, 2:28, 3:16; John 14:26; Mark 10:42-45Resources - We're including more resources that normal since we know this is a topic about which many husbands and wives have questions.From God Questions - What is egalitarianism?From Got Questions - What is complementarianism?From Harris Creek – a Message from JP - Real MarriageMust Wives Submit to Husbands?From the Council of Biblical Manhood and Womanhood - Summaries of the Egalitarian and Complementarian PositionsQuestions to discuss:1) How did your upbringing affect your views on roles in marriage?2) How are you doing at serving each other?3) How do you make big decisions in your marriage?

Tired of having to do things, rather than wanting to do things? If you are human then you can relate to this! It's all about the choices and decisions you make consciously and UNCONSCIOUSLY. Case & Point: Marilyn admits that she doesn't want to spend time and care for her husband, who is suffering from dementia, after decades of marriage. WTF? It's NOT about her husband or her marriage, it's about subconscious REBELLION stemming from early childhood causing emotional blindspots. This undetectible resentment causes Marilyn to unintentionally avoid and escape the uneasiness hidden by, what I call, "almost justifiable excuses." IT'S ALWAYS ABOUT FEELING FREE FROM MENTAL AND EMOTIONAL IMPRISONMENT. It's never obvious, and only shows up as irritability, frustration, anxienty, distraction, anger, short-temperedness, indifference, inability to commit and effectively meet obligations, lack of joy, happiness and gratitude. The list is just too long, but simply put, it hinders, blocks and stops us from faithfully being, doing and getting what we truly WANT. "I hate it when you're right, Karen," Marilyn blurts out when I call her out on what she is unwilling to confront, only because she can't see the real saboteur, "HerSELF." If she truly wants to be happy, healthy and harmoniously married while continuing to build her dreams in life, then she must learn how to recognize the negative symptoms and reconnect to the positive aspects of taking responsiblity for the life she wishes to create. And, most importantly, emotionally connect to the fun, freedom, benefits and fulfilling rewards of stopping the cycle of SELF-SABOTAGE.

Welcome to Episode 122 of the Being Human Podcast:  There Is No Real Marriage Therapy On this week's podcast, Dr. Greg continues to uncover issues in the secular field of psychology by breaking open ways that marriage therapy as it exists today lacks what is necessary to truly support married couples. First on the list? Lack of a proper understanding of marriage.    Discussed in this episode: The purpose of marriage; How all “marriage therapy” research, publications, modalities, and techniques are not actually focused on marriage;  The lack of understanding about what it means to be a man or woman made in God's image in a vocation leading to union with Him; What's missing from Relationship Enhancement Therapy, Gottman Institute research, and Imago Institute theory;  Catholic magisterial teaching on marriage vs. misinformation commonly taught;  What does it mean that through marriage we're called to become saints? How errors in the writings of St. Thomas Aquinas related to women have impacted our understanding of gender roles; The current demonization of masculinity as a retaliation against the demonization of women in the past; The importance of the complementarity between men and women in marriage; What does a truly Catholic marriage therapy look like?         Resources mentioned or relevant: Register for our upcoming Open House to learn more about the new CPMAP certification!

In this episode, my husband is back on the show with us. We are discussing how taking a step back can help you achieve freedom in your life. And I really wanted us to talk about this because when you're an entrepreneur or an online influencer, there's so much pressure to have more, be more, and do more. We live online in a culture that basically says, "If you're not taking steps forward, if you're not going bigger or going better, something is wrong with you." Tune in to this episode to learn more about this topic, and have fun!   “It's okay to slow down and not try to top your last launch. It's okay to take a step or two back to take a couple of giant leaps forward.”   How to avoid the squeaky wheel of success Building a runway for growth Define the dance in your relationship and business Connect with me:Email: behealthywithjoy@gmail.com / joy@levelupbabe.com Website: level-up-babe.mykajabi.comInstagram: @joyharrington.ig / @levelupbabe.igFacebook: Joy HarringtonTikTok: @joyharrington01 YouTube: Joy Harrington - LEVEL UP Babe
