About this listen
You were taught how to fall in love. You were taught how to plan a wedding.
But no one taught you the hidden curriculum of marriage—until now.
In this powerful episode, Instructor Mike exposes the unspoken rules, legal traps, and emotional liabilities that come with marriage contracts in America. From family court’s bias toward emotion over evidence, to how pillow talk becomes courtroom testimony, this episode breaks down the difference between romantic hope and legal reality.
Whether you’re preparing for marriage, parenting future adults, or recovering from divorce, this is the lesson you wish you had before saying “I do.”
🔍 Topics Covered:
• What it means that family court is a court of equity, not law
• How spousal communication can be used against you
• Case law like In re Charous, Ohio v. Reiner, and Stephens v. Stephens
• Developmentally appropriate ways to teach children about discretion, emotional safety, and trust
• Why journaling, AI tools, and inner processing are safer than oversharing
• Strategic silence vs. emotional transparency
💡 Remember: Love is emotional, but divorce is procedural.
Let’s teach what the culture won’t.
