In this powerful conversation, I connect with my friend Rasmus, a man who has walked the path from high-performance business leadership to deep emotional and spiritual awakening. From his beginnings as an elite athlete and fitness entrepreneur to his evolution into a father and men's mentor, we explore what it truly means to lead from the inside out. Rooted in the theme of Men's Development & Conscious Leadership, this dialogue is heart-centered, deeply personal, and grounded in practices that cultivate presence, vulnerability, and real power.Rasmus shares how divorce became his greatest teacher—opening him to grief, humility, and radical self-honesty—and how those lessons now inform his men's work. We talk about breaking cycles of pain and overachievement, the difference between performance and embodiment, and why turning inward often reveals more strength than chasing external success. We also explore conscious parenting, the courage it takes to re-pattern family dynamics, and how healthy sexuality emerges when men face their wounds with compassion and accountability.Throughout the episode, we offer practical pathways: slowing down to listen to the body, tending to the nervous system, practicing clean communication, honoring boundaries with love, and redefining success through integrity and connection. If you're seeking balance, presence, or a more grounded way to lead—in your work, relationships, or fatherhood—this conversation invites you to meet yourself more fully and lead with an open heart.

"We've always had the same kind of values in why we're doing this. That alignment, I think, helps the steadiness and longevity... The music comes first. Music is about itself. It's not, at least primarily a means to make a living." Dustin Kensrue of Thrice on the shared values that have kept the band's lineup intact for 25 years. He discusses their unique writing process using Asana and 400+ voice memos, and how re-recording a classic album influenced their new sound. For over two decades, Thrice has been a constant—a pillar of the post-hardcore scene that has not only evolved with each album but has kept its original four members intact. We're joined by frontman Dustin Kensrue to discuss how they've managed one of the most incredible feats in rock music: staying together. Dustin details the band's practical creative process, revealing how they use project management tools like Asana to organize hundreds of voice memos into the powerful songs fans know and love. He also explains how revisiting their classic album *The Artist in the Ambulance* allowed them to reconnect with old instincts in a fresh way, directly influencing their new material. This is a conversation about legacy, integrity, and what it takes to put the music first, always."We've always had the same kind of values in why we're doing this. And that alignment, I think, helps the steadiness and longevity... The music comes first.""I have no idea how we would write a song to work on TikTok... it's just not on our minds. There's enough juice flowing... the hardest thing is narrowing down what ideas we wanna chase because there's so many.""Doing both of those [re-recordings] was a process of kind of reintegrating a lot of old instincts and ways of thinking... those instincts can be reappropriated by us in a fresh way, that feels authentic and organic and not forced."

You think you're staying together for the kids. But are they truly safe—or just absorbing tension they can't name?In this solo episode, I explore the neuroscience of “silent divorce,” where parents remain physically together but emotionally disconnected. Research shows this doesn't protect children—it rewires their developing brains to expect instability, even when everything looks “fine.”You'll learn:✅ Why kids internalize emotional misalignment even without visible conflict✅ How chronic tension changes identity and self-regulation✅ Simple steps to create congruence and emotional safety at homeThis episode isn't about blame—it's about awareness. And when you shift what your nervous system broadcasts, you change what your child inherits.

Today I sit down with Carl and Heather Cartee, married 26 years and hosts of their own marriage podcast, for our first deep dive into marriage on Everything Made Beautiful. This conversation is for every couple - whether you're thriving, struggling, or somewhere in between.Carl and Heather get real about the biggest challenge they see in marriages today: the epidemic of busyness that leaves couples drifting apart without even realizing it. They share the crucial distinction between marriage as contract versus covenant, and why understanding that difference can transform how you approach conflict and commitment.This conversation tackles practical tools for reconnecting when you feel like roommates, including their wisdom to "act your way into a feeling instead of feeling your way into an action" and "be interested, not interesting" when drawing out your spouse. We dive into why regular maintenance matters more than crisis intervention and how their own seasons of struggle led them to normalize therapy and community support.With four teenage boys at home, they offer insight into how their marriage has evolved through different seasons and why the things that initially drew them together also became sources of conflict. They share vulnerable stories about learning to use words as tools for connection rather than weapons, and how God has refined their strengths without diminishing what makes them unique.Whether your marriage needs a tune-up or major repair, this conversation offers hope, practical steps, and the reminder that if you're not intentionally working on your marriage, you're naturally drifting apart. Their message is clear: don't ever be discouraged - God is fighting for your marriage.Carl + Heather's Website: https://www.carlandheather.com/Carl + Heather's Podcast: https://www.carlandheather.com/podcastCarl on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/carlcartee/Heather on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/heather.cartee/

What does it mean to be a good parent?If part of your job is to provide stability, then it can seem like even if your love relationship isn't fulfilling, it's best to grit your teeth and get through it -- at least until the kids are out of the house.The truth is a lot more nuanced.Consider the following, for example:What are you role-modeling to your children if you stay in a relationship that's physically or emotionally barren? What are they learning from you and your partner about conflict and repair? About boundaries? About warmth and affection?Would you want them to someday be in the relationship you're in?One confusing constellation of this can be when you're great co-parents with your wife/partner, but, say, your sex life is dead. In other words you manage the household well together, but there's no passion. Another is when you have a difficult spouse/partner and feel concerned that if you're not around to protect the kids from her, issues will arise.Here we delve into unhealthy (and healthy) relationship dynamics, whether "making it work" is a real thing, and what you impart to your kids daily, without saying a word.Growing almost always requires discomfort, but here's the good news: When you choose to lean into growth, you're teaching your children the bravest lesson of all.Work with usWant to go deeper than the podcast?

All movie geeks have those movies that we've purchased down at the used DVD store, but just haven't gotten around to watching yet. So this week Todd shares some thoughts on four movies that have been sitting on the shelf for a while, which he finally got around to watching. We start with an early appearance by Rosario Dawson in The First 20 Million is Always the Hardest. Next we go back to the 60's as Sandra Dee and Bobby Darin star in If a Man Answers. After that we look at one of the last films to star Rodney Dangerfield, The 4th Tenor. Then we close things out with the coming-of-age drama Staying Together. We also have some trivia questions along the way, and still make time for a movie recommendation to close the show.
Vicki and Elizabeth were excited in the episode to welcome college admission experts Rick Clark and Brennan Barnard to talk about their book, “The Truth About College Admission: A Family Guide to Getting In and Staying Together.” This book cuts through the noise, misinformation, and unhealthy pressure surrounding college admissions. While acknowledging the admission system system isn't perfectly "fair," Rick and Brennan believe understanding it empowers families to navigate it wisely. We were especially impressed by the focus on practical wisdom for preserving relationships, fostering healthy communication, and maintaining perspective throughout one of life's major transitions. Join us to discover why the truth about college admission might be the most liberating thing your entire family needs to hear. Thank you for listening!

Between Mothers' Day and Fathers' Day, let us consider what it is that holds couples together in this age of liberty when neither church nor society has much to say when a couple decides to call it quits. Are we trying hard enough to foster healthy relationships what create a healthy environment both for child rearing and retirement? Does our faith have something to say about commitment and self sacrifice?
In this week's episode of Blended, Kate Ferdinand is joined by Cilla and Nathalie for one of the trickiest dilemmas they've tackled yet. A listener shares her story of planning to separate from her husband after years of being together but they've decided to carry on living under the same roof until their children turn 18.Why? Because she's terrified her son might choose to stay with his stepdad instead of her. It's a heartbreaking situation that raises a huge question: can you separate without shattering your family?The ladies explore the emotional weight of “staying for the kids,” and debate whether that decision protects children or simply delays the damage.They reflect on research that shows children thrive in two-parent households and dig into how breakups affect kids no matter which parent leaves, highlighting that mothers can also be the ones who disrupt the home, not just the dads.The trio share how they'd feel about having a stepparent now, as grown women, and the impact childhood trauma can have on how we move through relationships as adults and reflect on how their own upbringings in single-parent homes shaped their views.Follow @blended on Instagram to share your story.

In this vulnerable and powerful episode, Zach is joined by Tarah and EJ Kerwin, a married therapist duo and co-founders of Relationship Renovation, a counseling center and podcast dedicated to helping couples reconnect and rebuild. With honesty, warmth, and even some tears, Tarah and EJ take us behind the scenes of their own marriage—from honeymoon bliss to total overwhelm, from avoidance and trauma to healing and deep emotional presence. They share how the birth of their twins shifted their entire dynamic, how ketamine-assisted therapy helped Tarah reconnect with forgotten trauma, and how they both committed to doing the inner work to stay together, grow together, and model safety for their blended family. This episode is a window into the real, raw, and redemptive process of building a resilient marriage, even when both partners are therapists. Key Takeaways The Before & After of Parenting Going from 0 to 4 kids (including twins with colic) rocked their nervous systems—and their connection. The honeymoon phase disappeared overnight, and they had to rebuild their emotional infrastructure from scratch. Healing Through Ketamine Therapy A supervised ketamine protocol opened the door for deep trauma processing, revealing forgotten abuse and emotional blockages. It became a turning point for compassion, communication, and reconnection in their marriage. Authenticity Over Perfection As therapists, they felt pressure to “walk the talk,” but real healing came when they dropped the performance and embraced their own messy growth. “The best marriages aren't perfect—they're honest and evolving.” Relearning Safety Together Tarah's trauma responses affected their intimacy and communication, and EJ had to learn not to retreat during conflict. Over time, they created a marriage where all parts of themselves could show up and be seen. The Power of Staying Instead of giving up, they chose to double down—on themselves, their love, and their mission to help others. Their counseling center now helps hundreds of couples every week, born from the lessons of their hardest moments.

"So... till death do us part: perseverance, endurance, faithfulness. That's what I preached 25 years ago. And it was solid stuff, I think. But we need to go deeper. Because it's missing, I think, maybe the most important part. Because... what if perseverance isn't measured just by time? What if endurance and faithfulness aren't measured just by time?"

We hear all the time that children are resilient — and should be even more so! But do divorcing parents overestimate their kids' resilience to justify their actions? Should “staying together for the children” come back into style? Returning guest Bridget Phetasy talks about her recent article for The Spectator about an aspect of divorce that rarely gets discussed: the ripple effects over decades as adult children and grandchildren are spread thin among multiple families and step-families. Bridget's parents, who had five children under 12 when they divorced, followed the logic that parental happiness is better for children than “staying together for the kids.” But is that really true? Bridget's essay kicked off a huge conversation online and touched a lot of nerves (and ruffled a lot of feathers) and she and Meghan continue that conversation here. They also talk about their shared desire to quit the content creator hustle and move to the woods. Also, Bridget apologizes to Meghan for a microaggression that's been haunting her, even though Meghan has no memory of it. GUEST BIO Bridget Phetasy is a Spectator columnist and contributing editor.

MESSAGE NOTES: https://www.bible.com/events/49282038RESOURCES: https://www.canyonridge.orgWhom do you experience the most disagreement with? When we disagree, it's easy to allow disunity in our relationships. Pursuing unity is hard. Romans 12:18 teaches us, "If it is possible, as far as it depends on you, live at peace with everyone." When followers of Jesus are in a disagreement, they should lead with love for the other person, upholding the relationship, and then clarify their beliefs peaceably. In times like an election year, when things can feel especially dicey, it's important to obey this commandment for peace in disagreements. Where can you practice expressing your beliefs in loving ways this week?

If your marriage isn't working, you're suffering. Maybe you're fighting all the time (whether aloud or not). Maybe you're great co-parents, but you don't connect in an intimate way anymore. And when I say "intimate" I'm not just talking about sex; I'm talking about warmth, closeness, and connection.Should you automatically stay in a relationship because there are children involved?The fact is, kids are perceptive and intuitive. They're aware when there's distance or discord between parents, even if they don't talk about it. And whatever you're doing in your relationship, you're role-modeling what a romantic relationship is. Is yours one you'd want your kids to have?Here, we go over "making it work" and relationship dynamics that do affect the kids -- and not in a good way. Sometimes it's possible to repair a marriage, and sometimes it's not. Put more frankly, sometimes the best thing to do is to separate for both you and the kids.Growth always requires getting uncomfortable, and if you want your family to truly thrive, sometimes delving head-on into discomfort is the brave and loving thing to do.Work with usWant to go deeper than the podcast?

Did Luka give the most important quote of the year?
In today's video, we dive deep into a topic that's often debated but rarely understood: staying together for the kids. Contrary to popular belief, maintaining a toxic or unhappy relationship solely for the sake of children can do more harm than good. We explore why it's crucial to prioritize the well-being of all individuals involved, including the children. Furthermore, we delve into a personal aspect: why I choose to cut people off swiftly. Understanding the rationale behind this decision sheds light on the significance of boundaries and self-preservation in maintaining healthy relationships.
