Send us a text Do you find yourself mentally tallying who did which chores this week? Or maybe you've stayed up until 2 AM arguing about something that seemed so important but now feels trivial in the morning light? These relationship patterns might stem from popular marriage myths that sound reasonable but actually undermine connection. In this enlightening episode, I'm joined by my husband Dr. Jeff as we dismantle three dangerous marriage myths that create disconnection. We tackle the deceptive "50-50 rule" that turns relationships into mathematical equations rather than partnerships. You'll learn why keeping score leads to resentment and how generosity creates a cycle of mutual care that math can never calculate. We also explore why "never go to bed angry" might be the worst advice ever given at bridal showers. Sleep deprivation amplifies emotions and impairs judgment, making midnight arguments particularly destructive. Instead, we offer practical language for pressing pause without abandoning the issue altogether. Finally, we challenge the Instagram-perfect image of conflict-free marriages. Like a fireplace that warms the home but requires tending, conflict can strengthen your relationship when approached with curiosity and compassion. The complete absence of disagreement often signals that someone's voice isn't being heard. Whether you're newly partnered or celebrating decades together, you'll gain practical tools to replace these myths with healthier relationship patterns. Our weekly challenge gives you three specific actions to implement immediately: trading 50-50 for 100-100, learning when to pause instead of push, and practicing small repairs that build trust. Ready to transform your relationship? Subscribe, share with someone you love, and join us next time for the final installment in our marriage myths series! Exciting news! Our podcast is getting a fresh new facelift—including a brand-new logo! ✨ After we wrap up Part 3 of our Marriage Myths series, we’ll be taking a short 2–3 week break to relaunch with a whole new look and feel.…
Send us a text Ever been told "never go to bed angry" or that "your spouse should just know what you need without asking"? These well-meaning pieces of relationship advice might actually be sabotaging your marriage. In this eye-opening conversation with licensed marriage and family therapist Tony Overbay, we dive deep into the marriage myths that have been passed down like sacred wisdom but often do more harm than good. With humor and practical insight, we examine why these beliefs persist and how they shape our expectations in ways that can lead to frustration and disappointment. We start by tackling the mind-reading fantasy—the belief that true love means anticipating your partner's needs without communication. Tony reveals why this childhood adaptation becomes maladaptive in adult relationships and offers a refreshing alternative: embracing the joy of explicitly sharing your needs and desires. The myth that "marriage solves all problems" gets thoroughly debunked as we explore how marriage actually tends to magnify existing issues rather than erase them. As Trisha puts it, "Marriage doesn't fix the problems, but it gives you a partner to face them with." Perhaps most powerful is our discussion about boundaries—why they're essential guardrails for healthy relationships rather than obstacles to intimacy. We distinguish between boundaries and walls, explaining how properly communicated boundaries actually create the safety needed for deep connection. Can people really change? The final myth we tackle challenges the fatalistic view that people are permanently fixed in their ways. Drawing on neuroscience and therapeutic experience, we offer hope for genuine transformation while acknowledging the reality that change must be intrinsically motivated. Whether you're newly married, considering marriage, or decades into your relationship, this conversation will help you identify the unhelpful relationship myths you've unconsciously adopted and replace them with healthier, more realistic alternatives. Your relationship doesn't need a perfect script—it needs honesty, intention, and a good dose of humor.…
Send us a text Why does love sometimes feel like both a lifeline and a threat? The answer lies in our attachment styles—powerful patterns formed in childhood that shape our adult relationships in profound ways. When Scott wrote to us about his marriage to Claire, he described a painfully familiar dynamic: clinging desperately one moment and shutting down completely the next, while his steady partner tried to understand what was happening. His story opens a fascinating window into disorganized attachment (what we call "the cat in a tree") and how it clashes with secure attachment (the "oak tree"). Your nervous system might be sending mixed signals about connection based on early experiences, but there's tremendous hope for change. We unpack practical tools like creating a "safe pause" during conflicts, naming your feelings in real-time, and programming your communication to avoid overwhelming yourself or your partner. These micro-skills create new neural pathways, gradually rewiring your response to emotional intimacy. Dr. Jeff shares personal insights about communication strategies that have transformed his own relationships, while I introduce my new Attachment Map tool—a visual guide to help you identify your attachment style and take meaningful steps toward security. Whether you're an oak tree, octopus, turtle, or cat in a tree, understanding these patterns is the first step toward healing. Your emotional suitcase might be packed with fear and confusion, but it can be repacked with safety, connection, and repair. Email trishajamesoncoaching@gmail.com to receive your free copy of the Attachment Map and begin your journey toward more secure connection today. Email us at trishajamisoncoaching@gmail.com…
Send us a text Imagine carrying an invisible suitcase into every relationship—one packed with your earliest lessons about love, safety, and connection. In this revealing episode of The Q&A Files, host Trisha Jamison teams up with Dr. Jeff Jamison and therapist Tony Overbay to crack open that suitcase and examine what's inside. Through vivid metaphors and relatable stories, we explore the four attachment styles that shape our relationships: the grounded oak tree (secure), the clingy octopus (anxious), the withdrawing turtle (avoidant), and the conflicted cat in a tree (disorganized). These aren't just psychological categories—they're your nervous system's blueprint for how you give and receive love. The conversation takes fascinating turns as Tony describes the "anxious-avoidant loop" that traps many couples in painful cycles, while Dr. Jeff offers compassionate insights about why we gravitate toward familiar patterns even when they hurt. You'll discover how early experiences with caregivers created an internal working model that guides your adult relationships, often operating below conscious awareness. Whether you're overthinking every text message, shutting down during conflicts, or puzzled by your partner's reactions, this episode offers clarity and hope. The panel shares how attachment patterns can shift with awareness and intention, emphasizing that understanding your style isn't about blame but about creating new possibilities for connection. Ready to recognize your attachment style and transform your relationships? Listen now, and be sure to tune in next week for part two, featuring practical steps toward secure attachment and the introduction of Trisha's new Attachment Map tool. Questions?

Send us a text Have you ever witnessed an act of kindness so profound it changed the entire atmosphere? Those moments when someone steps forward while everyone else steps back? Today's story takes us from a simple pharmacy encounter to a harrowing flight in 1991 where I found myself living every parent's travel nightmare. Picture this: two small children, a car seat disaster mid-boarding, and a plane full of judging eyes. Just when I thought I'd crumble under the weight of it all, something extraordinary happened – a stranger stood up and shifted everything. This isn't just about airplane etiquette or parenting struggles. It's about those pivotal moments when kindness doesn't wait for an invitation but shows up precisely when someone is unraveling. The kind man who carried my baby during boarding. The courageous passenger who called out the judgment of others. These weren't random acts – they were deliberate choices to see beyond themselves. What strikes me most, even decades later, is how the man who helped was already caring for a quadriplegic seatmate. He wasn't someone with abundant free time or resources – he simply made space in his heart for one more person in need. His words, "What is wrong with you people?" weren't just directed at my fellow passengers; they echo as a challenge to all of us. Will we be the crowd that watches, or the one who stands? As you move through your week, I challenge you to look for opportunities to be that shift. Who around you might be carrying more than they're showing? The mom in your neighborhood? The teenager behind the counter? Your friend who always says they're "fine" but might not be? Kindness doesn't require grand gestures – sometimes it's as simple as saying "You're doing a good job" or "Can I help?" These moments of interrupting kindness don't just heal others; they heal something in us too. Send this episode to someone who needs to hear it, leave a review, and most importantly, live it. Keep letting your kindness move the atmosphere. The world doesn't need more spectators – it needs more people willing to stand.

Send us a text Grief doesn't ask for permission—it arrives unannounced, even for those who make their living guiding others through emotional landscapes. Tony Overbay, a therapist who typically sits across from clients helping them process pain, recently found himself on the other side of the couch after losing his mother. In this raw, tender conversation, Tony shares what that journey looked like not just as a professional, but as a son navigating the complicated emotions of watching his mother's final days. What happens when the helper becomes the griever? When the person who usually has the answers finds themselves sitting in the unknown? Tony walks us through those four days at his mother's bedside—the unexpected humor that emerged, the spiritual experiences he hoped for but didn't receive, and the beautiful moments watching his father's tenderness after 58 years of marriage. Perhaps most profound is Tony's revelation about how his professional training both helped and hindered his grief process. While his background in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy allowed him to recognize unhelpful thought patterns, he still found himself wanting the mystical experiences he'd heard clients describe. His story reminds us that professional knowledge doesn't create immunity from pain—it simply offers different tools for the journey. For anyone supporting someone through grief, Tony offers refreshing alternatives to the standard "I'm sorry for your loss." Instead, he suggests asking open questions like "What has this been like?" or "Tell me a story about them"—invitations that create space for authentic sharing rather than prescribed expressions of condolence. Whether you're navigating your own season of loss or walking alongside someone who is, this episode offers a powerful reminder that grief is not a sign we're broken, but evidence we've loved deeply.

Send us a text Let's take a moment and reflect on some of the questions we explored today. If you are listening and something is stirring within you, consider journaling through these ideas: 1. What is something I say I want, but keep avoiding, delaying or abandoning? 2. What emotion comes up when I think about following through with it? 3. What belief might be hiding underneath that resistance? What would if fee like to approach myself with compassion instead of criticism? Intrigued?

Send us a text Ever stood in your kitchen staring at your perfectly planned health routine taped to the fridge, feeling that familiar wave of resistance rise up inside you? You know exactly what to do—you could write the book on it—yet somehow, by week three, you're right back in the loop of self-sabotage rather than follow-through. Master coach Misty Springer reveals why this happens and how to break free from this frustrating cycle. What we call "self-sabotage" is actually a form of self-protection—an invisible brick wall your body creates when change feels unsafe. Through powerful stories and practical insights, Misty explains why affirmations alone don't work, how to identify the limiting beliefs holding you back, and why creating safety in your nervous system must come before mindset shifts. You'll discover the critical difference between your "first voice" (intuition) and "second voice" (fear), plus learn how to tap into your body's wisdom instead of endlessly searching for answers outside yourself. Misty shares her journey of building a meaningful business while raising a family, revealing how you can have both without sacrificing either. This conversation goes beyond quick fixes to address the real reason you struggle to follow through on what matters most. The solution isn't more willpower—it's alignment between your mind, body, and heart. Whether you're trying to improve your health, grow your business, or simply break free from start-stop cycles, this episode offers a compassionate new lens through which to view your challenges. Ready to transform self-sabotage into self-trust? Listen now, and be sure to subscribe for part two next week, where Misty will share a simple breathwork practice to help you reconnect with your truth and shift out of the exhausting push-and-perform cycle.

Send us a text Feeling stuck in the same relationship arguments? You're not alone. This episode delves into why couples repeatedly fall into the same emotional patterns and—more importantly—how to break free from them. We open with the story of Emily and Jake, whose dinner table disconnect represents a common scenario many couples face. When Jake walks in absorbed in his phone while Emily hopes for connection over a thoughtfully prepared meal, it triggers an all-too-familiar spiral. The real question underneath isn't about dinner or phones—it's about being seen. The science behind these patterns reveals why good intentions aren't enough. Each time we repeat a conflict pattern, those neural pathways strengthen, making it increasingly difficult to respond differently when emotions run high. This explains why even couples who've "read all the books" still fall into destructive cycles. The good news? Meaningful change doesn't require grand gestures or relationship overhauls. As we explore, it happens through small, intentional shifts that interrupt established patterns. "Small hinges swing big doors," as Tricia describes, and these tiny changes consistently applied transform relationship dynamics over time. We share five powerful tools to break destructive patterns: focusing on the pattern rather than the problem, creating a pause phrase, practicing tiny repairs in the moment, reflecting weekly together, and replacing judgment with curiosity. Each strategy helps couples move from their reactive states back to what we call the "green zone"—where you're regulated enough for real connection. Dr. Jeff offers special insight for couples rebuilding after betrayal: "It's not your responsibility to trust them; it's their responsibility to be trustworthy." This crucial distinction removes pressure from the hurt partner to "just get over it" and places responsibility for rebuilding trust where it belongs. Ready to try something different? Listen for practical reflection questions and an invitation to make one small shift this week. Your relationship isn't beyond repair—it just needs the right kind of support and a commitment to small, meaningful changes. Questions: Check in with us at trishajamisoncoaching@gmail.com…
Send us a text Dive into the fascinating world of core motives and discover why understanding the "why" behind your actions could revolutionize every relationship in your life. Kathy Larson returns for part two of our exploration of the Color Code system, revealing the crucial difference between personality traits and core motives that drives our behavior at the deepest level. Most relationship challenges stem from fundamental misunderstandings about what drives us. When a power-motivated Red and a peace-seeking White try to communicate without understanding these differences, the results can be frustrating for both. One partner feels steamrolled while the other feels ignored. Kathy unpacks this dynamic with practical wisdom, offering tangible strategies for bridging these differences without either person abandoning their authentic self. The episode takes a surprising turn when we explore the concept of "character development" - how we can intentionally develop strengths from colors that don't come naturally to us. Kathy shares her personal journey as a Yellow working on commitment (a Blue strength), while I reflect on my growth in becoming more direct and confident (Red qualities) despite my Blue tendencies to prioritize harmony over clarity. These stories illustrate how understanding your core motive frees you to expand rather than limiting you to a box. Perhaps the most powerful revelation is how the Color Code aligns with emotional intelligence development. Reds naturally excel at motivation, Yellows at social skills, Blues at empathy, and Whites at self-regulation - while self-awareness remains the foundation everyone must build. This framework provides a roadmap for personal growth that honors your innate wiring. We're thrilled to announce our upcoming collaboration with the Color Code team to integrate these powerful insights into our Healing Hearts program for struggling couples and our new White Coats and Worn Hearts initiative specifically designed for physician couples navigating burnout and relational disconnect. Whether you're just discovering your color or looking to apply this knowledge more effectively, this episode offers both the understanding and practical tools to transform how you see yourself and connect with others.

Send us a text Trisha Jamison has been counting down the days to share this episode with you! She’s been using the Color Code for nearly two decades—in her marriage, with her family, and with clients—and now you get to see why she loves it so much. Get ready… this one’s a treat! You know that moment when everything in you wants to snap, but something inside says, “Pause”? We’ve all been there. And in this eye-opening conversation with the incredible Kathy Larson—Managing Partner of Hartman Color Code—we learn how knowing your core motive can completely shift how you relate, lead, and love. Kathy breaks down the four core colors that drive us: ❤️ Red – Power 💙 Blue – Intimacy 🤍 White – Peace 💛 Yellow – Fun Unlike other personality tools that tell you what you do, the Color Code goes deeper—it tells you why. And that changes everything. From a very relatable parenting story involving a drill left in the rain (oops!) to what happens when a 6’10” Blue husband tries to act like a Red, you’ll laugh, relate, and probably recognize yourself or someone you love. Kathy also gets personal, sharing what it was like to grow up as a 92% Yellow who struggled with commitment—and how facing those challenges helped her step into leadership and become the steward of this life-changing system. And yes… Jeff takes the test too—and the results spark some surprises and deep insight about exhaustion, identity, and living out of alignment with who we truly are. We even dive into Kathy’s work with elite athletes and how understanding core motives helps them thrive—not just in competition, but in life. Whether you’re navigating a tough relationship, managing a team, or just trying to figure yourself out, this episode will leave you feeling empowered, inspired, and more equipped to connect—with yourself and others.

Send us a text Have you ever done what you believed was right, only to watch it spiral into an unexpected nightmare? This deeply personal episode peels back the layers of what happens when good intentions meet harsh reality. We share the moment our family celebration—our daughter's wedding—collided with crisis as an unexpected visitor was injured by our family dog. What followed was a year-long journey through medical treatment, legal proceedings, financial settlements, and profound emotional losses that tested our family's resilience in ways we never anticipated. The parallels between our story and listener Derek's experience with his youth mentorship program reveal a universal truth: sometimes the price of integrity is steep. When Derek reported suspected abuse of a teen in his care, he faced backlash, isolation, and questioning whether his intervention was worth the cost. His question—how to keep doing right when it brings pain—resonates with anyone who's paid a personal price for following their moral compass. Grit isn't just perseverance; it's the courage to stand when everything within you wants to collapse. Grace complements this strength by maintaining compassion when you feel wronged. Together, they form the foundation for navigating life's most unfair moments without losing your essential humanity. Whether you're currently weathering a storm of your own or supporting someone who is, this episode offers a compassionate perspective on finding meaning in difficult circumstances. We explore why character matters most when tested and how to preserve your heart for helping others even after painful experiences. If today's conversation resonated with you, we'd love to hear your story. Have you ever paid a personal price for doing what you believed was right?

Send us a text The emotional journey of managing diabetes extends far beyond counting carbs or checking blood sugar. For many like Lisa, our listener who sparked this powerful two-part series, a diabetes diagnosis can feel like a sentence to a joyless relationship with food and an identity defined by illness. In this illuminating conclusion of our conversation with dietitian Kara Roberts, we dig into the psychological terrain of living well with diabetes. How do we break free from the burnout cycle of perfect compliance followed by complete abandonment of healthy habits? What happens when the inner critic becomes so loud that it drowns out all progress? These questions sit at the heart of sustainable health transformation. Kara shares wise, practical guidance for rebuilding trust with food without obsessing over numbers. We explore how family dynamics shape our health journey and how to transform teenagers from obstacles into allies. The conversation reveals simple yet powerful starting points anyone can implement today—from incorporating vegetables at every meal to strategic meal planning that eliminates decision fatigue. Perhaps most powerfully, we challenge the notion that your diagnosis defines who you are. Your A1C is not your identity—it's merely information guiding your next steps. As Dr. Jamison reminds us, "People truly never fail unless they quit." This perspective shift creates space for self-compassion without abandoning accountability. Whether you're managing diabetes yourself or supporting someone who is, this episode offers a refreshing approach to health that honors both physical needs and emotional wellbeing. The path forward isn't about perfection—it's about progress, partnership, and reclaiming the joy in eating one meal at a time.

Send us a text What happens when food—once a source of joy and connection—becomes a battleground of numbers, fears, and restrictions after a diabetes diagnosis? In this powerful episode, we're joined by Kara Roberts, a registered dietitian and certified diabetes educator with over 25 years of experience helping people navigate the complex terrain of type 2 diabetes management. Kara Roberts brings warmth and practical wisdom to a conversation that goes far beyond carb counting and medication options. She shares why the overwhelming information online often leads to burnout and how simple changes—not perfect ones—create sustainable health. Through addressing a heartfelt question from a listener struggling with diabetes burnout, Kara demonstrates how to break free from the all-or-nothing cycle that leaves so many exhausted and discouraged. We tackle the buzzing conversation around medications like Ozempic and Mounjaro head-on, exploring both their benefits and concerning side effects like muscle loss that often go undiscussed. But this episode shines brightest when discussing the emotional relationship with food—how to reclaim cooking joy, use spices to transform "healthy" foods into delicious meals, and develop patterns instead of restrictive plans. Whether you're newly diagnosed, supporting someone with diabetes, or simply seeking a more balanced approach to nutrition, this conversation offers a refreshing perspective on health that honors both physical needs and quality of life. Hear why Kara believes "it's going to be okay" isn't just empty reassurance but a promise backed by practical strategies that work in real kitchens and busy lives.

Send us a text "You have cancer." These three words instantly transform everything, especially for a parent with young children. In this deeply moving episode, we address a raw question from Amber, a 42-year-old mother of four who has just received a breast cancer diagnosis and finds herself paralyzed by fear and conflicting advice. Leading oncologist Dr. Stephen Anthony joins us to provide clarity through the chaos, bringing 30 years of clinical experience and extraordinary compassion to this crucial conversation. Dr. Anthony shares revolutionary insights about modern cancer treatment approaches that offer more hope than ever before, explaining how precision medicine and genomic profiling can increase treatment success rates from 15% to an astonishing 60%. Beyond the medical facts, Dr. Anthony offers profound wisdom on the emotional journey, defining hope as "a spiritual quality based on a relationship with God" while optimism comes from medical evidence. This distinction becomes a guiding light for anyone facing difficult health decisions. The conversation delves into practical strategies for navigating the overwhelming flood of information—both helpful and harmful—that accompanies a serious diagnosis. Perhaps most powerfully, Dr. Jeff shares the story of a patient who, when faced with limited time, chose to prioritize relationships over career, finding peace in his final days by "living in the now." This episode isn't just for those facing cancer—it's for anyone who needs reminding that in life's most challenging moments, being present and connected to those we love matters most.

Send us a text What happens when pornography addiction shatters trust in a marriage? This powerful part two of a three episode series begins with Keith's raw confession—a 36-year-old husband and father whose pornography habit, which began at age 13, was discovered by his wife on their shared tablet. The pain and shame of that moment sparked profound questions about healing, redemption, and rebuilding trust. Our expert panel delves into the neurological underpinnings of pornography use, explaining the Coolidge Effect and how the brain's dopamine system gets hijacked through novelty-seeking. We explore why traditional approaches of shame and self-loathing actually reinforce problematic behaviors rather than resolving them. This isn't just about stopping a behavior—it's about understanding the adaptive patterns that began in childhood and learning to respond to emotional needs in healthier ways. For partners like Keith's wife who find themselves asking "Why wasn't I enough?", we offer compassionate insight into why pornography use rarely has anything to do with the spouse's attractiveness or sexual satisfaction. Instead, it often indicates deeper emotional regulation challenges that predate the relationship entirely. Both the person struggling with pornography and their hurt partner need guidance, understanding, and practical strategies to move forward. The conversation weaves between scientific understanding and heartfelt wisdom, offering practical tools like the HALT method (recognizing when you're Hungry, Angry, Lonely, or Tired), the vital importance of the "pause" before acting on urges, and why seeking specialized help makes all the difference. We distinguish between guilt (which can motivate change) and shame (which keeps people stuck), while emphasizing that healing begins with separating actions from identity. Whether you're struggling with pornography yourself, supporting someone who is, or trying to rebuild trust after discovery, this episode offers both compassion and clarity for the journey ahead. Stay tuned for part two, where we'll address Keith's specific questions about breaking free, rebuilding trust, and finding forgiveness in himself and his relationship. If you or someone you love is struggling with pornography, consider Tony's "Path Back" program. www.thepathback.org If you have a burning question for us, please send it to: trishajamisoncoaching@gmail.com!

Send us a text Discovering hidden pornography use in your marriage can feel like having the ground ripped from beneath your feet. The questions haunt you: Was it all a lie? Am I not enough? How could I have missed this? In this raw, courageous exploration of betrayal trauma, we address a heartbreaking letter from Paula, who recently discovered her husband's secret pornography use after eight years of marriage. The emotional devastation of betrayal trauma runs deep, but healing begins with understanding an essential truth—this isn't about you. Dr. Jeff Jamison, Tony Overbay and I unpack why partners often internalize betrayal, questioning their own worth when confronting a partner struggling with pornography. We examine how early exposure (in this case, at age 10) creates neurological pathways that can lead to lifelong struggles with intimacy and authentic connection. When trust shatters, the body responds as if under attack. We offer practical techniques for nervous system regulation—box breathing, self body scanning, and sensory grounding—while acknowledging the messy reality that healing isn't linear. The question "was our entire relationship a lie?" reveals the painful complexity survivors face as they sort through what was real and what wasn't. One of the most liberating perspectives we share is that rebuilding trust isn't the betrayed partner's responsibility. The person who broke trust must demonstrate consistent, transparent behavior over time. This shifts the burden off the wounded partner and places it where it belongs—on the person doing the healing work. Whether you've experienced betrayal or are struggling with pornography use yourself, this conversation offers compassionate insight without judgment. Next week, we'll explore the husband's perspective with equal depth and care. Remember, while pornography addiction damages relationships, it doesn't determine your worth or destiny. Healing is possible, even if the path forward feels impossible to imagine right now. Have a question? Trouble in your marriage? Contact Trisha directly at trishajamisoncoaching@gmail.com.

Send us a text When two people find love after divorce, they bring not only their hearts but their history, children, and learned relationship patterns. This intimate conversation with Tiffany and Craig explores the beautiful complexity of blending families and building a relationship that's stronger precisely because of what came before. The couple shares how they've learned to appreciate each other differently than in previous relationships. Craig notes, "Random acts of kindness, the little things she does for me without being asked—I'm highly aware of it now and let her know I see it." They've discovered the profound difference between relationships built on transactions versus genuine partnership. Blending families as adults brings unique challenges. With seven children between them, they're navigating different expectations and healing timelines. Their respectful approach—"Dad, you go at your pace, we'll go at ours"—demonstrates the maturity needed when adult children process a parent's new relationship. Tiffany wisely observes, "I'm not their step-mom; I'm Craig's wife. I want to be their friend," recognizing that roles evolve differently when children are grown. Perhaps most touching is how they maintain joy through difficulties. When paddleboarding against strong currents (literally and metaphorically), Craig looked over to find Tiffany "dancing and singing still" despite the struggle. "That's something I needed in my life," he reflects, "someone who says, 'this is a hard thing right now, but we're going to have fun doing the hard thing.'" Their relationship reminds us that love isn't about getting it perfect; it's about finding the right person at the right time and building something beautiful together—complete with TL (Tell Last) compliment games, spontaneous adventures, and the freedom to simply be themselves.

Send us a text What makes a second marriage stronger than the first? For Tiffany and Craig Cherle, it's building a partnership where each person feels safe to be completely themselves. In this heartfelt continuation of our conversation, they reveal something surprising about falling in love later in life: it often doesn't match our Hollywood expectations. Craig describes it as "more of a process" where his brain led more than his heart, while Tiffany questioned if she was even "loving right" after realizing her previous relationships confused love with rescue and overcompensation. Their honesty about navigating relationship differences is refreshing. When Craig bought Tiffany an expensive diamond necklace early in their relationship, she had to find the courage to say it wasn't her style – a moment that revealed how both were learning to communicate authentically rather than just please each other. These small moments built the foundation for something deeper than their past relationships. The couple shares practical wisdom about creating emotional safety. Craig learned that demanding immediate resolution to conflicts only creates more tension, while Tiffany discovered she could express needs without fear of explosive reactions. Their approach centers on speaking what they want clearly while giving each other space to process difficult conversations. Perhaps most touching is how they've created genuine intimacy through everyday vulnerability – laughing about bathroom boundaries and learning what real partnership feels like. As Tiffany puts it, "It's not about me, because when you first get married it's like 'me, me, me, what did they do wrong?'" Now they understand it's about growing together while letting each person remain themselves. Whether you're healing from heartbreak or seeking to strengthen your current relationship, this conversation offers hope that love can be better the second time around when built on maturity, communication, and genuine acceptance.

Send us a text What makes love work the second time around? Tiffany and Craig Sherle join us to share their remarkable journey of finding each other after experiencing divorce from their long-term marriages of 32 and 29 years respectively. Fresh off their wedding just five weeks ago, this newly married couple opens up about navigating the vulnerable world of online dating, overcoming the fear of rejection, and recognizing when something special is worth pursuing. Their story unfolds with refreshing honesty—from Craig's initial reluctance to date again after his divorce to Tiffany's "dating fast and furious" approach that eventually led them to each other on a religious dating app. The conversation dives deep into what makes relationships work after previous heartbreak. Both had to rediscover themselves first, with Tiffany embracing independence and Craig reconnecting with the authentic self he'd lost in his previous marriage. What began as casual dating transformed through hours-long phone conversations where they discovered a shared foundation despite seeming differences on the surface. Their journey illustrates beautiful truths about second chances: that confidence means being comfortable where you are, that vulnerability is necessary despite the risk of rejection, and that finding someone with similar values and upbringing creates the strongest foundation for lasting love. Far from a clichéd romantic story, Tiffany and Craig share the real, sometimes messy process of two people with baggage learning to trust again. Whether you're navigating life after divorce, wondering if love might find you again, or simply appreciating stories of resilience and new beginnings, this conversation offers both hope and practical wisdom for the journey ahead. Subscribe to hear the second part of our conversation where we'll explore how they've created a strong foundation for lasting love.

Send us a text Imagine hearing that your unborn child is missing a bone in their leg. Then imagine doctors telling you the only option is amputation. This is where Courtney Brown's story begins—a testament to the power of maternal intuition, faith, and the transformative impact of asking for a second opinion. Courtney takes us through the emotional rollercoaster that began at her 20-week ultrasound when technicians discovered her daughter Kinley was missing her right fibula bone. With minimal guidance from her medical team, she embarked on her own research journey and discovered the condition was called fibular hemimelia. After Kinley's birth, multiple consultations with specialists led to the same conclusion: amputation before her first steps. But six days before the scheduled surgery, Courtney couldn't ignore the persistent voice urging her to seek another perspective. Her eleventh-hour email to Dr. Paley, a specialist she'd only read about online, changed everything with his response: "I can fully correct Kinley's leg so she can run, jump, walk and play." What unfolds is a beautiful narrative of faith, medical innovation, and a mother's unwavering advocacy. We explore the emotional challenges of handing a 19-month-old over for complex surgeries, the physical toll of recovery, and the incredible milestone of watching Kinley wear her first pair of shoes on both feet. Now preparing for her third of four planned surgeries, Kinley is thriving as an active second-grader involved in theater, art, and learning guitar. Beyond the medical journey, Courtney offers powerful insights for anyone navigating healthcare challenges: trust your gut, don't be afraid to ask hard questions, connect with others walking similar paths, and remember that primary care physicians can be invaluable allies in coordinating complex care.

Send us a text Have you ever walked away from a conversation feeling confused, defensive, and somehow at fault for something you didn't do? That's the disorienting power of logical fallacies – deceptive reasoning patterns that toxic partners deploy to maintain control and avoid accountability. In this revealing episode, Tony Overbay and I decode the manipulative tactics that can make you question your own reality. We break down red herrings (distracting with irrelevant topics), straw man arguments (misrepresenting your position), whataboutisms (deflecting blame), and ad hominem attacks (targeting your character instead of addressing the issue). What makes this conversation so powerful is our exploration of why emotionally immature individuals rely on these tactics. For many, it's not calculated malice but a desperate attempt to maintain a "one-up" position when they lack a solid sense of self. Understanding this doesn't excuse the behavior, but it helps explain why accountability feels so threatening to them and why they'll fight so hard to avoid it. The most valuable takeaway? Practical strategies for maintaining your clarity when conversations twist. By pausing before responding, naming the tactic mentally, and remembering that you don't have to engage with every argument, you can protect your emotional well-being. We discuss how journaling creates a record that validates your experience when gaslighting makes you doubt yourself. For the "pathologically kind" person caught in these dynamics, recognizing these patterns can feel uncomfortable – once you see them, you can't unsee them. But this awareness is the first step toward reclaiming your power and creating healthier relationships built on genuine communication rather than manipulation. Ready to stand firmly in your truth?

Send us a text What if the overwhelm, anxiety, and exhaustion you're feeling aren't signs of weakness, but your body's brilliant attempt to protect you? In this illuminating conversation with nervous system resilience coach Leah Davidson, we dive deep into the hidden language of your nervous system and how it shapes everything from your sleep quality to your ability to trust after betrayal. Leah explains why our nervous systems toggle between hyperarousal (anxiety, irritability, racing thoughts) and shutdown (numbness, exhaustion, disconnection) when we perceive danger. She demystifies the vagus nerve—that mysterious communication highway carrying messages between brain and body—and reveals why 80% of these signals travel from body to brain, not the other way around. This explains why trying to "think yourself calm" rarely works as effectively as bottom-up approaches like breathwork and movement. For those struggling with sleep issues, Leah offers a powerful reframe: "Your sleep is usually indicative of your nervous system state throughout the day." Sleep difficulties after betrayal trauma aren't coincidental—they're directly connected to your body's heightened vigilance. The good news? Your nervous system is remarkably adaptable, and with consistent practice, you can rewire those protective patterns. Perhaps most reassuring is Leah's compassionate reminder that dysregulation isn't a character flaw but an adaptive response: "It's not because I was broken. It's because I brilliantly adapted to whatever was going on in my world that was very overwhelming." Through simple daily practices, community connection, and self-compassion, you can gradually create more safety in your nervous system and access the resilience that's always been within you.

Send us a text In this episode, we discuss the tragic case of a mother murdered despite a protection order. Her 17-year-old son discovering his mom's body while sheltering his younger siblings. The aftermath of domestic violence ripples through generations, reshaping how children form relationships and perceive safety at their most foundational level. This episode unpacks the devastating psychological impact of domestic abuse on children through attachment theory. Tony Overbay explains how witnessing violence creates insecure attachment patterns—anxious, avoidant, or disorganized—that follow children into adulthood, while Dr. Jeff Jamison details the physical toll: persistently elevated cortisol levels, constant fight-or-flight activation, and developmental challenges that affect everything from academic performance to social connections. For parents who've escaped abusive relationships, we offer a roadmap for helping children heal while navigating their own recovery. We also tackle the complex emotional landscape facing abuse survivors—the guilt, empathy, and lingering attachment to abusers despite everything they've endured. Healing isn't quick or linear, but with emotional consistency from the safe parent, children gradually distinguish between healthy and unhealthy relationships. If you're struggling with domestic violence or its aftermath, call the National Domestic Violence Hotline: 1-800-799-SAFE. Remember that healing is possible—even after the darkest experiences. You are NOT alone! https://gofund.me/1328af7c…
Send us a text The gut-brain axis represents one of the most fascinating and consequential connections in our bodies, with profound implications for mental health. Did you know that 90% of serotonin—the neurotransmitter regulating mood, sleep, and anxiety—is actually produced in your gut? This revelation explains why what we eat directly impacts how we think and feel. For parents struggling with children experiencing ADHD symptoms, this episode delivers eye-opening research on how eliminating artificial food dyes, preservatives, and high-sugar foods has shown remarkable improvements in focus and impulse control. We explore practical approaches to introducing healthier options that won't trigger resistance from even the pickiest eaters. Perhaps most alarming is our deep dive into industrial seed oils—those supposedly "heart-healthy" cooking oils that undergo extreme chemical processing. From hexane extraction (using a petroleum-derived neurotoxin) to high-heat deodorization creating trans fats, these oils undergo a shocking transformation before landing on supermarket shelves. We break down how these oils disrupt metabolism, drive chronic inflammation, and potentially contribute to everything from heart disease to cognitive decline. The standard American diet contains an omega-6 to omega-3 ratio of up to 50:1, when it should be closer to 3:1. This imbalance creates the perfect storm for systemic inflammation affecting both body and mind. But there's hope—we outline simple, practical alternatives and a three-step approach to making sustainable changes that won't overwhelm your already busy life. Small, consistent changes add up to significant health improvements.
