In this powerful episode of Openlove101, John and Jackie Melfi sit down with Mr. and Mrs. Jones from the podcast WeGotaThing.com to discuss their journey from a traditional 29-year marriage into the world of consensual non-monogamy. What begins as a conversation about swinging quickly evolves into a much deeper discussion about communication, jealousy, faith, personal growth, vulnerability, and the power of community. The Joneses explain that when they first became curious about the lifestyle, they struggled to find relatable resources. Most podcasts and online conversations centered around highly experienced swingers, leaving little support for nervous beginners simply trying to understand what the lifestyle really looked like. Their podcast was born from that gap — offering a transparent, beginner-friendly perspective for couples exploring these conversations for the first time.   Their journey started unexpectedly during a Caribbean vacation at an adults-only resort. What began as curiosity around topless sunbathing eventually led them to discovering Desire Resort and, for the first time, the term "the lifestyle." Instead of finding the wild stereotypes they expected, they discovered something completely different: real couples, authentic connection, emotional honesty, and a welcoming environment centered around trust and communication. As they slowly explored together, they found themselves confronting emotions they had never experienced before — especially jealousy. After nearly three decades of marriage, Mr. Jones experienced jealousy for the first time, not because of sex itself, but because of emotional symbolism and attachment. Rather than avoiding those emotions, they chose to work through them together. One of the biggest breakthroughs they share is learning the difference between sex and emotional love. Physical experiences with others did not diminish their love for one another — instead, the process strengthened their connection and transformed the way they communicated. The conversation also dives deeply into the role of the lifestyle in improving marriages. The Joneses explain how consensual non-monogamy forced them to develop communication skills they never needed in traditional monogamy. Honest conversations about boundaries, fears, insecurities, and desires created a level of emotional intimacy they had never experienced before. The episode takes an emotional turn when they discuss being anonymously outed to their church community. The fallout led to painful judgment, loss of leadership positions, and eventually being asked to leave their church. Despite the heartbreak, the experience also revealed the strength of the lifestyle community and helped them identify which relationships in their lives were truly supportive. Rather than retreating into shame, they chose visibility and authenticity. Throughout the episode, they challenge common misconceptions about the lifestyle — especially the idea that non-monogamy stems from broken relationships or lack of love. Instead, they describe the lifestyle as a catalyst for growth, empowerment, emotional maturity, and connection. They also discuss how their Christian faith evolved alongside their lifestyle journey. Rather than abandoning spirituality, they reconstructed their beliefs around unconditional love, compassion, honesty, and acceptance.

In the past two episodes, I walked you through the 4 stages of heartbreak and the specific remedy that moves you from one stage to the next. But what does this actually look like when someone applies it in real life? In this episode, you'll hear a conversation with a Braveheart who used this exact framework after her husband unexpectedly ended their 22-year marriage. She shares what it felt like to move through the devastated stage, how identifying her stage changed the way she approached healing, and the specific shifts that helped her move forward much faster than she thought possible. If you've been wondering how to actually apply the stages and remedies to your own breakup and whether this process can really work when the relationship was long, serious, and deeply intertwined, this episode gives you a real example of what happens when you identify your stage, apply the right remedy, and get the right support along the way.

Saving Struggling, Sexless, and Toxic Marriages.Kathryn Morrow, Author of Behind The White Picket Fence.I Love My Wife… But I Struggle to Show It. Why?Chris has been married 26 years. He works on the road. He says he loves his wife… but she doesn't feel it. She's doing the self-growth, learning attachment styles, sending him resources — and he's stuck in the same pattern: avoid conflict, avoid hard conversations, “I'll get to it,” then never gets to it.Cass calls it out: you're not “dismissive avoidant.”You're afraid of conflict. You're afraid of not being good enough. And you're using labels as an excuse to keep avoiding the work.This episode breaks down:Why “dismissive avoidant” is often a symptom, not your identityThe real label: conflict-avoidant (learned avoidance)Why your wife researching you is a GOOD sign (she still wants you)Why “I love you” doesn't matter if she can't FEEL itHow to rebuild connection while you're on the road: call for the good stuff, then learn to hold the hard stuffWhy over-explaining turns into defensiveness (and kills intimacy)The difference between wanting change and FOLLOWING THROUGHIf your wife still wants you… stop acting like you've got time.Go love her like a man who's about to lose her.

If you've ever felt like everyone else is having the sex life you're supposed to have — and you're just white-knuckling your way through it, faking it, or coming up empty — you're not broken. You're just not talking about it yet. Whether it's a desire you've been too scared to voice, a fantasy you've kept to yourself for years, or a body that's never quite gotten there with a partner, the shift almost always starts the same way: someone finally said the thing out loud. In this episode, three real listeners share the moments that changed everything for them — and none of it looks the way you'd expect. In this episode, you'll learn: • What finally happened when one husband spent months asking his wife for something she wasn't sure about — and why one unexpected text message changed their relationship and sex life forever • How a 20-year marriage, a night out dancing, and a chance encounter with a stranger led to a first threesome that was hotter, messier, and more human than any fantasy • Why so many vulva owners can't orgasm during penetration — and the exact combination of communication, touch, and mindset that finally got one woman there after years of trying This episode is sponsored by...

Do you ever feel like you're living according to someone else's rules? How do you find the courage to be yourself when you know not everyone is going to be on board? My guest is David Archuleta, platinum-selling singer-songwriter, former American Idol runner-up, and author of the new memoir Devout. In this episode, David gets real about the intense pressure to please his family, his church, and his fans—and what it took to finally trust his own voice and make choices that align with who he really is. Some of the things we discuss are: How toxic family dynamics and the pressure to please can strip away your self-trust The terrifying reality of living a double life to meet religious and societal expectations Why setting boundaries—even with family—is essential for your mental health The moment David realized he had to stop waiting for permission to be himself How making mistakes is actually a gift, not a failure Why breaking free from control can feel lonely at first, but is the only path to true freedom How to start trusting your own decisions, even when you're terrified of the outcome Subscribe to ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Mentally Stronger Premium⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ for exclusive content like weekly bonus episodes, mental strength challenges, and office hours with me.

What does covert narcissistic abuse look like when it unfolds slowly over decades—without obvious explosions, without outsiders seeing the damage? In this episode, Renee speaks with Shari, who shares her lived experience of spending 42 years in a marriage that gradually became confusing, destabilizing, and emotionally exhausting. Shari reflects on the subtle but devastating dynamics of covert narcissism, including triangulation, passive aggression, emotional coldness, cognitive dissonance, and the profound impact these patterns had on her nervous system and sense of self. This conversation explores what happens when the person you thought you knew reveals a different reality—and how deeply disorienting it can be to reconcile the marriage you believed you had with the truth you eventually see. Shari also speaks honestly about grief, anger, self-blame, and the moment she realized she had to choose herself in order to survive. Most importantly, this episode offers hope. Shari shares what healing looks like later in life, how self-care is not selfish, and why it is never too late to reclaim peace, autonomy, and a sense of wholeness. If you've ever questioned your reality, felt invisible in a long-term relationship, or wondered if it's too late to start over—this episode is for you.

It is personal, unexpected, and exactly the kind of Between Friends story that reminds you how one tiny moment can change the direction of your whole life.   This story is part of The Saturday Spill series a little peek into the wild, unfiltered stuff that usually stays on Patreon.

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.

Do you ever feel like you're drowning in guilt? That feeling that no matter what you do, you're not doing enough? As a parent, a partner, a friend, or a professional? We often think guilt is a sign we've done something wrong, but what if it's just a symptom of something deeper? What if the constant feeling of "I should have..." is actually holding you back from living a happier, more fulfilling life? Learning how to manage guilt isn't about ignoring your feelings; it's about reclaiming your energy and making choices that truly serve you. My guest is Dr. Jennifer Reid, a therapist and author who specializes in helping women overcome the crushing weight of guilt. Some of the things we discuss are: The difference between healthy guilt and the maladaptive guilt that keeps you stuck. Why women, in particular, struggle with feelings of guilt. The "Guilt Equation" and how it can help you understand and frame your feelings. The four "furies" of expectations that fuel guilt and how to push back against them. Why we sometimes feel guilty for being happy and how it substitutes for other, more authentic emotions. Practical, step-by-step strategies to manage guilt without just "sitting in it." How to handle guilt about past events you can't change. What to do when someone tries to use a guilt trip to manipulate you. Why freeing yourself from the cycle of guilt is one of the most powerful things you can do to become mentally stronger.

Send us a text & leave your email address if you want a reply!Picture this: January 2021, middle of the pandemic. After 25 years of marriage, Zeke and Terri finally admitted what everyone already knew. They weren't happy. They weren't good for each other anymore. Their kids responded to the divorce announcement with "it's about time." For ten years, they'd danced around separation, taking turns being the one who wasn't ready to let go. During their first week living separately (Zeke had moved into their son's bedroom), Terri went through her own emotional journey. By Saturday, driving to tennis with gorgeous weather and great music, she felt ready for whatever came next. One thing she definitely wanted was really good sex. She wanted to reclaim who she'd been before marriage, rediscover her midlife body, understand what she actually enjoyed. That evening, she made a proposition that changed everything: "What do you think about having sex? I want to reclaim who I am. I want to experiment." What happened was the beginning of what Terri calls "sexploration." With no pressure, no obligation, no expectations about their relationship's future, they started playing. Terri researched toys, techniques, videos. She centered her own pleasure instead of everyone else's needs. They became vulnerable with each other. They communicated about everything. Most surprisingly, they started falling back in love, but this time consciously, intentionally, with completely different ground rules.KEY INSIGHTSWeekly relationship check-ins prevent small issues from becoming marriage-ending problems using five essential questionsSexual exploration without obligation transforms intimacy when women take responsibility for their own pleasureDaily recommitment builds security while honoring choice, with morning "I love you" commitments replacing trapped feelingsDivorcing your old relationship to consciously create a new one works better than trying to fix what's brokenSeparating love and sex allows you to rediscover both and reunify them more powerfullySide-by-side positioning against problems prevents the destructive pattern of facing off against each otherLINKS & RESOURCES MENTIONED IN THE EPISODE CAN BE FOUND HERE ON THE WEBSITELAST 10x LONGER.

Taylor isn't just hype, he's the blueprint. We trace Taylor's fingerprints across bourbon history, from steam‑heated warehouses and Bottled‑in‑Bond standards to the modern lineup that keeps collectors camping in line. Then we put the whiskeys in the glass and let the ratings fly.We start with Small Batch and unpack why it punches above its weight: a vanilla‑forward nose with apricot and cherry cordial, rich legs, and a medium, oak‑tinged finish that nudges for another sip. From there we step into the heavy hitters—Single Barrel precision, Barrel Proof power, and a Straight Rye that swerves minty and bright—and talk about what changes in the glass as proof, grain, and warehouse floors shift. We also spotlight the fabled limiteds: Four Grain's candy‑red fruit and clove, Amaranth's nutty depth, 18 Year Marriage's layered elegance, Cured Oak and Seasoned Wood's stave science, Tornado Surviving's weather‑worn magic, and the Warehouse C release that reads like dessert without losing its backbone.Along the way, we share tasting notes you can actually use, debate our house scoring system, and even land a rare perfect mark for Four Grain thanks to that long, fruit‑laden finish. If you're new to the line, you'll leave with a smart game plan for what to hunt first. If you're deep in the racks, you'll pick up nuances that make your next pour more rewarding. Either way, it's a masterclass in how grain bills, wood seasoning, and aging environments shape flavor—and why Taylor's legacy still sets the pace.Subscribe on your favorite podcast app, drop a review if you learned something, and tell us which EH Taylor expression deserves the crown.

How Daily Habits Transformed His 36-Year Marriage: Harvey's Story Marriage is holy work. Maybe you're reading this today because you're hoping your marriage will change. Maybe you're reading this because you've prayed, "Lord, please help my marriage," when really you mean "Lord, please help my spouse!" I hope this blog and episode will make you feel both comforted and inspired — that you'll be reminded your marriage can change, not by grand gestures or perfect communication, but by small, faithful, daily habits of love. This is what Harvey discovered as well. That it wasn't grand gestures or big sweeping shifts that changed his marriage, but small, daily, consistent habits that brought it God's love, peace, and patience into his marriage. Changing Your Priorities: When Hard Work is Leading to Disconnect Harvey and his wife have been married nearly 37 years. Together, they raised four kids and built a life on their dairy farm. For decades, he worked two full-time jobs—teaching high school by day and farming by night. He says, "Every day was between 12 to 16 hours. My wife was incredibly supportive, but I just wasn't there emotionally." Maybe you can relate. Life's responsibilities pile up, and before you know it, years have passed. You're functioning—but not really connecting. Despite his faith and commitment, Harvey admits that emotional and spiritual intimacy were missing. He wanted closeness, but didn't know how to get there. A Different Kind of Prayer—and a Different Kind of Growth After retiring from teaching, Harvey finally had space to seek help. He'd been listening to our podcast for years and decided it was time to join Masculinity Reclaimed, our men's program. The first surprise? It wasn't about changing his wife! It was about learning to love her the way Christ loves the Church. He started with one habit: daily time with God. Reading Scripture. Praying. Reflecting. And eventually, he began praying with his wife in the mornings—a completely new rhythm in their 36 years together. That quiet time, over coffee and prayer, became a beautiful and cherished time for emotional connection. The Turning Point: Accepting Your Wife as She Is Halfway through the program, Harvey realized that for years, he had been looking at his wife through the lens of what she wasn't. She wasn't this, she wasn't that... But when he stopped trying to change her and started accepting her for who she is, the woman he fell in love with, the woman she had always been, rather than who he hoped she might someday become–everything began to shift. That acceptance made her feel safe. Seen. Loved. And when a woman feels safe, her heart opens. His wife began to blossom before his very eyes and the connection Harvey had longed for finally began to grow. The Habits That Build a Marriage Here's the truth: marriage is a system of habits. Paul says, if you're married, you will have trouble. (1 Corinthians 7:28) You'll have to think about how to please your spouse. (1 Corinthians 7:34) Are you in the habit of thinking about your spouse? Are you in the habit of considering them and putting them first? Are you in the habit of encouraging, loving, praying, and serving them? It's not always easy work — but it is good work. Every word, every look, every morning prayer can help build connection. That's why transformation doesn't happen overnight. It happens in the daily choices. Final Thoughts Friends, you don't have to wait to start changing your marriage. Harvey shared with us, "I wish I had learned these things earlier in my marriage." We want that for you as well!  You don't have to wait to retire or for your kids to be out of the house. You don't have to wait to be a certain age or have been married a certain number of years. You can start investing in your marriage now, today, to say that the next 20, 30, 40, 50, 60 years of marriage were incredible. That is what we want for you. And we know, that no matter where your marriage is at right now, it can change. Just ask Harvey. We are rooting for you and we know that we serve a God who makes all things new– and that includes marriages.   God bless you!   With love, The Delight Your Marriage Team   PS - If you're ready to take the next step and get into a community that knows what it's like and are doing the hard work themselves– we'd love to chat with you.

What if the life you've been living no longer aligns with your values? Would you have the courage to reinvent yourself and start over? Mental strength isn't just about enduring a painful situation—it's about knowing when to let go and create a life that truly fulfills you. In this episode of Mentally Stronger, I sit down with Christine Brown Woolley, star of TLC's Sister Wives and author of the new book Sister Wife. Christine shares what helped her find the courage to leave a 25-year polygamous marriage and build a new life. From navigating complex family dynamics to embracing a new definition of mental strength, Christine's story is a powerful reminder that change is possible at any stage of life. Some of the things we talk about are: How Christine's values and beliefs changed. How she found the courage to leave a 25-year marriage and start over. How Christine's definition of strength changed over time. How she started building confidence. The role of faith, family, and personal values in her transformation. Why hard conversations and setting boundaries are essential for growth. The daily habits and strategies she uses to stay grounded, creative, and mentally strong. If you've ever felt stuck in a life that no longer serves you, this episode will inspire you to take charge, embrace change, and build a life that aligns with your values.

My first reaction? Pure panic. Not because of the damage, but because I was terrified to tell my wife. In that moment, I wasn't a 67-year-old marriage therapist—I was a scared little boy who didn't want to get "in trouble."Sound ridiculous? Maybe.

"What if the loneliness you feel in your marriage is actually preparing you for the solitude that could set you free?"Pat Fenner thought she knew how marriages were supposed to end. After 37 years, the slow drift into loneliness felt normal. But when divorce blindsided her, this mother of five discovered something unexpected: she had been lonely even when married. What followed was a journey from feeling like a "hard little kernel" to coming home to herself in ways she never imagined. Pat's story challenges everything we think we know about fighting for relationships versus fighting for ourselves."I absolutely love my life right now," Pat declares—words she couldn't have said for fifteen years. Through raw honesty, she reveals the red flags she missed, the fear that kept her trapped, and the surprising difference between solitude and loneliness. Her advice? Stop thinking marriage gets worse with time. Sometimes the very thing we think will destroy our relationship—standing up for ourselves—might actually save it. For those facing gray divorce or feeling alone in their marriage, Pat's journey offers both hope and practical wisdom.Pat Fenner is a podcast producer, author, and advocate for those navigating gray divorce, Her book "Rebuilding Your Life After a Gray Divorce: A Path to Healing, Joy, and Significance" features her signature STRENGTHS framework designed to help women savor simplicity, rebuild trust, and embrace their future. Pat also produces the podcast "Silver Women, Bright Future," exploring resilience and personal growth through real-life stories and biblical wisdom. Having transformed her own pain into purpose, Pat proves that life doesn't end post-divorce—it transforms into something even more authentic and joyful.About The Show: The Life in Transition, hosted by Art Blanchford focuses on making the most of the changes we're given every week. Art has been through hundreds of transitions in his life. Many have been difficult, but all have led to a depth and richness he could never have imagined.

It's a tremendous honor for me to share my podcast with Olympic legend and humanitarian, Billy Mills.  Billy Mills was born in 1938 and grew up on the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation in South Dakota, home to the Oglala Lakota Nation. Billy had a very difficult childhood, losing his mother, sister, and father by the age of 12. He turned to running as both an escape and a source of discipline. After his father's passing, Billy attended the Haskell Institute, a U.S. government run boarding school for Native American children. Schools like Haskell were controversial for their forced assimilation, physical and emotional abuse, and systematically trying to erase their students Indigenous identities. Billy, though, had a positive experience at Haskell, where he met his coach Tony Coffin, who became somewhat of a father figure to him. Coffin recognized Billy's talent and helped nurture his running abilities, providing him with the foundation that would later lead to his collegiate and Olympic success. Also, during his time at Haskell, Billy spent one of his summers as a counselor at Camp Greylock in Beckett, Massachusetts, which is the summer camp that I went to many years later and is a very important part of my life. So it's very special for me to share this link with Billy. At Haskell, Billy won multiple state championships in track and cross country, earning him a scholarship to the University of Kansas, where Billy would be coached by Bill Easton. Easton was a highly respected track and field coach who led Kansas to multiple NCAA championships, and at Kansas, Billy was one of the best distance runners in the country. He was a three time All American, won multiple Big Eight titles, and was runner up in the 1960 cross country championships. Through all of this, however, Billy faced numerous challenges, including discrimination at every level, including from Easton, hypoglycemia, and struggles with self doubt. At times, Billy even contemplated suicide, and in his senior year, he walked off the track and quit the team completely. Fortunately for Billy, the University of Kansas is also where he met and began dating a young woman named Patricia Pat Collins. Pat played a crucial role in Billy's journey, supporting him through the challenges he faced as an athlete and as a Native American navigating the world of elite sports. After graduating Kansas, Billy married Pat, joined the U. S. Marine Corps, and resumed training with the goal of not just making the U. S. Olympic team and not just winning a medal, but winning the gold medal in the 10K. Which he did. In 1964, Billy qualified for the Tokyo Olympics in the 10, 000 meter race, where he stunned the world with a historic, come from behind victory, becoming the first and still the only American, or even the only person from the Western Hemisphere, to win the gold medal in the event. He also remains the only Native American, other than Jim Thorpe, to win a gold medal in the Olympics. His triumph is considered one of the greatest Olympic upsets and victories of all time. Since Billy's victory in the 1964 Tokyo Games, Billy and Pat have dedicated their lives to giving back, co founding Running Strong for American Indian Youth, an organization that empowers Indigenous communities through health, education, and self sufficiency programs. Their journey is one of perseverance, cultural pride, and spreading a message of unity through diversity. All values that are very much at the heart of the Charity Miles community. Which naturally, is why we want to also thank our partners at Brooks Running who are very much champions for these values as well. For over a century, Brooks has been propelled by a never-ending curiosity with how humans move. It drives their every decision and every innovation. Because they believe movement is the key to feeling more alive. And we're all moving towards something. It could be the top of a mountain, a first-ever 5K,  peace of mind after a stressful day, or an Olympic gold medal.  It could be a cure for Parkinson's, a cleaner planet, fair play, or the strength that comes from our diversity. So… let's run there. With gear and experiences specifically designed to take you to that place. Whether it's a headspace, a feeling, or a finish line. Let's run there.
