  • Ep. 227: Where Fair Play Falls Short
    Sep 15 2025

    Fair Play has changed the conversation around mental load for so many couples, and it is an incredible starting point. But after using it myself and walking clients through it, I’ve seen that sometimes it doesn’t go as far as we hope, and it can even leave couples feeling stuck or disappointed.


    In this episode, I’m sharing where Fair Play shines, the gaps I’ve noticed, and what else needs to be in place for this tool to actually create the change you want. If you’ve ever tried Fair Play and still felt frustrated, unseen, or like something was missing, this conversation will give you the clarity and tools to move forward.


    Tune in to discover:


    • Why Fair Play was groundbreaking and why I still recommend it

    • The most important gap the system leaves out (and why it matters so much)

    • How life circumstances like travel or shift work complicate the system

    • Why divvying up tasks is only part of what makes marriage work

    • What else your marriage needs beyond Fair Play to truly thrive

  • Ep. 226: My #1 Hack To Collapse Time and Get Faster Results In Your Marriage
    Sep 8 2025

    What if the changes you want in your marriage could happen faster than you ever thought possible? Most couples assume that improving their relationship has to take years of work, but that’s not actually true. There’s one shift that can speed things up dramatically, and it might not be what you expect.


    In this episode, I share the biggest reason progress often feels painfully slow and the exact mindset and approach that will collapse time and help you see results much more quickly. You’ll hear real-life examples from my own marriage and from clients, plus the key to moving from frustration and disconnection into real, lasting change.


    Tune in to discover:


    • Why so many couples get stuck spinning their wheels on the wrong issues

    • The hidden ways traditional methods slow down progress

    • What creates hope and momentum when you feel like nothing is working

    • How to get unstuck even if you’ve been in the same cycle for years

    • The #1 hack to collapse time and get results faster in your marriage

  • Ep. 225: Building a Successful Marriage with ADHD featuring Sara Wiles
    Sep 1 2025

    Marriage and motherhood are challenging enough, and when ADHD is in the mix it can feel even more complicated. But a strong, connected marriage is absolutely possible. In this episode, I am joined by Sara Wiles, mom, wife, and business mentor, for an honest conversation about what ADHD looks like in her marriage and parenting, and the strategies that create more balance and connection at home.


    We also talk about what it means to build a business that supports your life instead of the other way around. Sara’s openness about marriage, motherhood, and entrepreneurship is a breath of fresh air for anyone who has ever felt “too much,” “not enough,” or simply wired differently in their relationship.


    Tune in to discover:


    • Why marriage after kids feels like building the plane while flying it

    • The role of repair in relationships and why it matters more than getting it perfect

    • How ADHD shows up in both business and marriage and how to make it work for you

    • The truth about highlight reels, comparison, and what we don’t see in other people’s marriages

    • What it means to build a life-first business (and why it matters for moms and families)
