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 episode, Chris and Peaches walk you through a full list of cheating apps for 2025, from “news” and calculator clones to secret chat apps, vaults, and full blown spyware designed to hide affairs. They break down how apps like disguised news feeds, private messengers, secret calculators, vault stock, private message boxes, and hidden photo folders actually work, including fake icons, decoy vaults, self destructing chats, and notifications that look like harmless news alerts. They also cover spying tools like Spynger, GPS spoofers, keyloggers, and screen recorders marketed as “catch a cheating spouse” apps, and talk bluntly about how dangerous this tech is when it gets into the hands of controlling or abusive partners. From there, the conversation shifts to what all of this really means for trust, infidelity, and emotional safety in relationships. You will hear hard truth on online cheating, porn as a form of infidelity, anxiety and BPD spirals, and why if you are tempted to install a spy app on your partner's phone, the real issue is that the relationship is already broken. Chris and Peaches give you a clear framework for when to leave instead of snooping, how to own your insecurity and start healing, and how to protect your kids from the dark side of smartphones with things like kid safe phones and simple tools like AirTags instead of handing them full internet access. If you are searching for “cheating apps 2025,” “secret messaging apps,” “how to catch a cheater,” “hidden vault apps,” or answers about privacy, trust, and boundaries in marriage and dating, this video will give you clarity, language, and a path forward instead of feeding your paranoia.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/2-be-better--5828421/support.

In this replay from Season 1 Episode 9 of the 2 Be Better Podcast, Chris and Peaches tackle the real side of traditional marriage, trauma, and mental health with raw, unfiltered honesty. They respond to criticism about their appearance, talk openly about troubled pasts, depression, suicidal thoughts, and why they choose to show up for “the broken” instead of trying to impress people who already have perfect-looking lives.

This episode is for anyone searching for real talk on healing, self-worth, faith, and taking ownership of your life instead of staying stuck in victim mentality.They also dive deep into sex and intimacy in marriage, including high vs low libido, sexless marriages, weaponized intimacy, nagging, and what it really means to be a stay-at-home wife in a traditional, faith-centered relationship. You'll hear coaching around lazy partners who won't work, setting timelines for change, financial stress, postpartum depression and creative burnout, grief after losing a parent, and how to let your husband lead in finances without losing your strength as a woman.

At first, he was open to communicating about their needs. He seemed keen on trying to be better. They were great together - both feeling safe to be vulnerable for the first time, then something changed.  He started to feel pressured and needed space. She gave him that space only to have a conversation later that confused her. Join me as I discussed with Sarah what are some of the red flags she might be missing right now and how she can navigate working with someone she is no longer in a relationship with but also hopes to get back together with...someday. What does she need to do differently should they get back together. I would love to hear your thoughts on this episode.

On Reimagining Love, we've done several solo episodes where Dr. Alexandra takes a seemingly simple and straightforward statement that folks are making about relationships. Then she pulls it apart to try to find more shades of grey, to add more complexity and layering to a phrase that she finds has gotten too simplistic. In today's episode, we are going to look at what it means when people say they've outgrown their relationship*. First, Dr. Alexandra will talk you through what she thinks people are saying when they say they've outgrown the relationship. Then she is going to look at the internal stuff - what might be going on inside of you that's shaping this feeling that you've outgrown the relationship that you're in. Then she is going to look at the relational stuff - what might be going on in the space between you and your partner that's shaping this feeling that you've outgrown the relationship. And then finally, she will talk about some strategies that you can use to bring clarity to the situation. *This episode often uses the language of intimate partnerships but much of it can be applied to other relationships, like friendships, as well.Other Solo RL Episodes that do a deep dive on a too-simplistic phrase:“I Love Them, But I'm Not In Love With Them” https://dralexandrasolomon.com/podcasts/i-love-them-but-im-not-in-love-with-them/“Right person, wrong time” https://dralexandrasolomon.com/podcasts/right-person-wrong-time/“If They Wanted To, They Would.” https://dralexandrasolomon.com/podcasts/if-they-wanted-to-they-would/Resources to support the episode:Reimagining Love episodes, Relational Ambivalence: Should I Stay or Should I Go?

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 episode of the 2 Be Better Podcast, Chris and Peaches break down a raw email from a newly married wife who is already thinking about leaving her husband, and they do not sugar coat a thing. You will hear real marriage advice on the first year of marriage, resentment and the mental load, division of labor in the home, expectations around being a “50s housewife,” body image, fitness before pregnancy, and why “he makes me feel like a piece of meat” might actually be a communication and perception problem, not proof that your man is a monster. They unpack groping versus affection, why your feelings are not the full story, what happens when you keep score over chores, and how couples slip into the roommate phase when they avoid direct, honest conversations about needs, kids, sex, and respect. If you are searching for first year of marriage advice, help with housework resentment, or real relationship coaching that calls out your own part in the dysfunction, this episode is for you. The second half dives into the conversations you must have before having children, from discipline, religion, diet and holidays, to college versus trade school, public school versus homeschool, and what it really means when both partners want full time careers while expecting grandma to run childcare and schooling. Chris and Peaches speak directly to working wives, stay at home mom hopefuls, firefighters' families, and neurodivergent couples navigating autism and ADHD, challenging you to think about postpartum, special needs, and what happens when your support system fails. You will get practical questions to ask each other before kids, a reality check on how children intensify whatever is already broken in your marriage, and a push to build a marriage centered on service, ownership, and intentional parenting, not fantasy and convenience. This is unfiltered relationship coaching, marriage advice for women and men, and a must watch if you want a strong marriage and a functional family, not just cute wedding photos and a baby announcement.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/2-be-better--5828421/support.

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 unfiltered 2 Be Better Podcast episode, Chris and Peaches break down the “princess treatment” trend, the bare minimum vs princess treatment challenge, and a viral Rolling Stone article attacking trad wives and traditional gender roles. They react to the Princess and the Pe fairy tale, the TikTok hose challenge, and the idea that opening doors, pumping gas, ordering for your wife, and protecting her in public is “over the top” or “misogynistic.” You will hear a blunt, masculine perspective on chivalry, equality, and partnership, why “I don't need a man” is propaganda, and the difference between being fully capable on your own and actually wanting to be loved, protected, and prioritized in a traditional marriage.From there they zoom out and tackle the bigger culture war around trad wife content, feminism, and the dating crisis, including why so many men are afraid to approach women, why women who want to be stay at home wives are shamed online, and how real men see the value of a feminine, nurturing wife raising the next generation. They also go deep on blended families and step-parent hate, defending stepdads and stepmoms who choose to love and raise children that are not biologically theirs, and showing how that role can completely change a kid's future. If you care about traditional marriage, princess treatment vs bare minimum, trad wife life, chivalry in relationships, step-parent dynamics, and building a strong, functional family instead of living for internet approval, this video is going to hit hard and give you language for the standards you actually want to live by.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/2-be-better--5828421/support.

Send us a textJoin Marc Almodovar, Founder of the Men's ADHD Support Group, and Kyrus Westcott of The Vibe with Ky as they explore what some think is a taboo subject: Ethical Non-Monogamy.But here's the thing, this isn't a talk about whether you should practice ethical non-monogamy. It's about what ENM can teach us about communication, boundaries, consent, and intentional relationship design, skills that make every relationship healthier, regardless of structure.When you can't rely on default relationship scripts, you have to talk about everything. You have to get clear on what you want, what you need, and what your boundaries actually are. That clarity? It's valuable for everyone.In this conversation, Marc and Kyrus explore:Why clear communication beats assumptions every timeHow to identify and communicate your actual needs (not just what you think you're supposed to want)The difference between agreements and expectationsWhy boundaries are about you, not controlling someone elseHow to design relationships that actually work for the people in themYou don't need to be interested in ENM to benefit from this. You don't need to agree with it. You're here to learn, not to commit to anything. Take what fits your life and leave the rest.This is a safe conversation. You're allowed to be curious. You're allowed to feel uncomfortable, excited, confused, or skeptical. All of it belongs here.Whether you're in a traditional relationship, single, or exploring other options, the relationship skills discussed apply. Because healthy relationships—of any structure—are built on the same foundation: honesty, communication, and intentional choice.If you're interested in Ky's amazing cologne check it out here -- https://sucreabeille.com/products/why-did-i-walk-into-this-roomIf you're interested in following Ky you can check out his website -- https://thevibewithky.com/Also follow him on all major platforms @vibewithky! 00:23 - Ky's Background and Achievements01:49 - Introduction to Ethical Non-Monogamy03:23 - Understanding Ethical Non-Monogamy04:56 - Ky's Personal Experience with ADHD and Relationships11:52 - Exploring Relationship Structures20:46 - Neurodivergent Traits and Ethical Non-Monogamy31:10 - Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria (RSD) and Jealousy39:20 - Practical Tools for Managing RSD and Jealousy41:11 - Reflecting on Fear-Based Stories in Relationships42:10 - Understanding ADHD Challenges in Relationships45:11 - Effective Tools for Managing ADHD in Relationships49:46 - Expressing Vulnerable Feelings and Needs52:32  - Open Q&A: Navigating Communication and Jealousy1:03:30 - Balancing Time and Conflict Resolution Strategies Check out our website for great blogs, information, and upcoming events!

But we love a good conversation.In this episode of the 2 Be Better Podcast, we unpack a raw email from a mom asking, “At what point do I put my son first?” We walk through her full story, from being a young woman ignoring red flags and leaving home for an abusive relationship, to getting pregnant, surviving narcissistic and controlling behavior, and finally trying to co-parent with a toxic ex. We talk about trauma, your nervous system, epigenetics, how pregnancy stress impacts your baby, and why honoring the old version of yourself matters while still owning every choice you made. You'll hear us break down nervous system overload, abuse cycles, emotional manipulation, and why self-respect and standards are non-negotiable if you want a healthy relationship and a stable home for your kids.We also dive deep into high-conflict co-parenting: abusive step-parents, a stepmom demanding to be called “mom,” kids witnessing yelling, name-calling and physical outbursts, and what to do when your child no longer wants to be at the other parent's house. We talk about 50/50 custody, when to go back to court, setting hard boundaries, supervised visits, and how to protect your child without using them as a weapon. If you're dealing with a toxic co-parent, abusive ex, unstable step-parent, ADHD kids struggling in chaos, or you're a mom or dad trying to figure out when your child's safety and mental health must come before “keeping the peace,” this conversation will hit home and give you clear, practical language and perspective to move forward.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/2-be-better--5828421/support.

But we love a good conversation.In this 2 Be Better Podcast episode, Chris and Peaches kick things off with updates on their upcoming December 5–8 coed couples retreat, breaking down details on bunks, private rooms, who can come solo, and why these weekends are so powerful for couples and individuals who want real relationship growth. Then they dive straight into part two of a heavy email from a wife in a long term marriage, struggling with BPD, emotional safety, and a husband who refuses to change because “this is who I was when we got married.” They walk through her written letter, line by line, unpacking abandonment triggers, preloading divorce conversations, the difference between repair and resolution, and how to phrase “I” and “we” language so you are fighting for the relationship instead of fighting each other. If you are in a mentally exhausting marriage where every argument gets turned back on you, you feel like you are doing all the emotional work, or your healing journey is not supported by your spouse, this episode will feel painfully familiar and give you a clearer framework for what healthy communication and real change should look like. From there, they expose the darker side of a husband who openly says he will not evolve, threatens to weaponize the kids in a divorce, and treats his wife as a conversational enemy while she tries to get her BPD into remission and protect her mental health. Chris and Peaches talk hard truths about when it is time to leave, what it actually means to be “too different,” why you cannot raise your husband like a toddler, and why real partnership requires both people to grow, not just the one with a diagnosis. They also respond to a separate email about a boyfriend constantly commenting on other women's bodies, celebrity crushes, and homemade porn in relationships, giving straight talk on lusting after others while in a relationship, self pleasure, and why “hall passes” and “it is just a movie” slowly destroy self esteem and intimacy. If you are craving blunt marriage advice, BPD relationship insight, and no nonsense coaching on emotional safety, porn, and standards in your relationship, this video will give you language, clarity, and the permission to stop settling.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/2-be-better--5828421/support.

In this episode, I dive into why judgment = discernment, why “nonjudgmental” spirituality can become spiritual manipulation, the recent Deepak Chopra/Epstein revelations, the shadow side of the wellness industry, and why learning to SEE distortion is one of the most important spiritual skills you'll ever develop.MAGNETIC AFFIRMATIONS (1HR+): https://21-day-break-up-glow-up-challenge.teachable.com/p/making-mind-magnetic-affirmations-all-eyes-will-be-on-you-793498

But we love a good conversation.In this episode, we sit down with Wes, host of the Modern Fatherhood Podcast, to have a real conversation about what it actually means to be a present father, husband, and provider in a blue collar world. We dig into modern fatherhood, co-parenting struggles, family court battles, and why so many men disappear from their kids' lives after divorce when the co-parenting dynamic turns toxic. We break down “happy wife, happy life,” the cost of chasing overtime checks, burnout, depression, and how many dads are physically in the home but emotionally absent. If you're a blue collar dad, single father, stay at home mom, or a wife trying to understand your husband better, this conversation will give you language and perspective around marriage priorities, work-life balance, and how to put your marriage and kids on solid ground.You'll also hear Wes share his story of becoming a young dad, buying houses, losing himself chasing money, gaining it all back in weight and stress, and then rebuilding his life with intention, men's groups, and massive weight loss. We talk about building better men through mentorship, accountability, and community, the power of men calling each other out when we're slipping, and why your social circle can either hold you down or force you to level up. We hit leadership in the home, how to be the man of the house without becoming a dictator, how to support a stay at home mom as a blue collar husband, and what provision really means beyond money. If you're searching for fatherhood advice, co-parenting tips, men's mental health support, or practical marriage advice for hard-working dads, this episode is for you.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/2-be-better--5828421/support.

But we love a good conversation.In this episode of The 2 Be Better Podcast, we read raw, unfiltered emails from listeners who are trying to live out traditional marriage roles in a very modern world. We talk about a stay-at-home wife who goes back to work full time and finds a new sense of purpose, what happens to the marriage dynamic when she leaves the house, and why her husband's pride “hits different” now that she's in the workforce. We break down communication, teamwork, masculine leadership, feminine submission, mental health, isolation, depression, and what it really takes to rebuild identity when the kids are grown and the house finally goes quiet. If you're into traditional values, biblical style marriage, or just want honest relationship advice from a husband and wife who actually live this, this is your episode.We also dive deep into a girlfriend who wants a traditional relationship while her boyfriend still lives with his parents, how to submit safely only to a man who can truly lead, and what that looks like when you're still living separately. From arguments over conflict styles (talk it out now vs. taking space), to how to avoid weaponizing divorce, to rebuilding emotional and physical intimacy when you're exhausted, we walk through real examples from our own marriage: conflict repair, apologies, boundaries, leadership, and date-night habits that keep you out of the roommate phase. Expect hard truths, practical tools, and real-world traditional marriage advice on submission, leadership, respect, and intimacy that you can start applying in your relationship today.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/2-be-better--5828421/support.

In this conversation, Dr. Alexandra totally nerds-out with Dr. Allison Daminger about the division of work in couples, particularly in an often overlooked domain: the mental space. In her research, Daminger found that even when couples approximate parity around “time use”, there are still huge gaps in what she calls “mind use” or cognitive labor… even for modern couples who believe in what she calls the Myth of Mutuality, an equal partnership where both partners evenly share the load.You will hear about the gendered disparities in cognitive labor in the home in a gentle, blame-free way. When it comes to gender roles in family life, we tend to overestimate the effects of individual differences and underestimate the effects of bigger social forces. So if the load is feeling unequal in your partnership, Daminger wants you to move away from guilt and blame and toward strategies that move you closer to your ideals. In this episode, you'll hear about:What constitutes cognitive labor and why women tend to carry the lion's share. Experiences from couples in Allison's research who successfully created shared systems for cognitive labor, and the approaches and conditions that made that possible. The narratives couples use to justify how they divide labor, especially when trying to avoid recreating gendered patterns (while often recreating them anyway). How to spot cognitive labor disparities in your own home and use that awareness to divide responsibilities more fairly based on skill rather than “personality” (i.e., gendered expectations). The pressure that broader societal structures place on individual households, and how reframing the issue can support calls for systemic change. How to start small and make meaningful shifts toward parity in cognitive labor.Resources worth mentioning from the episode:Dr. Allison Daminger's book, What's On Her Mind - The Mental Workload of Family Life: https://bookshop.org/p/books/what-s-on-her-mind-the-mental-workload-of-family-life-allison-daminger/585e2aa7eac0a0eaLearn more about Dr. Allison Daminger and sign up for her newsletter The Daminger Dispatch: https://www.allisondaminger.com/Continue the conversation with Dr. Alexandra Solomon:Ask a question!
