• Love Isn’t Safe. Now What?
    Oct 22 2024

    In this episode of The Loving Truth podcast, I dive into the complexities of love and safety in relationships. I discuss how, despite our desire for security, love inherently involves risk. I share personal insights about how seeking "safe" partners can sometimes lead to boredom in long-term relationships and I explore why people choose predictable love for comfort, yet crave excitement and change later on. I encourage listeners to embrace the uncertainties of love, reflecting on how love, though never truly safe, is ultimately worth the risk for the deeper human experience it offers.

  • Political Differences in Your Marriage
    Oct 16 2024

    In this episode of The Loving Truth, I tackle a topic I never expected to cover: navigating political differences within a marriage. I explore how political disagreements can add strain to an already complex relationship and share practical tools to maintain respect and connection, even when you and your partner don’t see eye to eye on politics. I emphasize the importance of curiosity, critical thinking, and respectful communication, offering advice on how to stay grounded and avoid conflict during emotionally charged discussions. I also discuss the significance of free will and encourage listeners to take charge of their own emotions rather than expecting their partner to change.

    In today’s episode of The Loving Truth, I talk about the impact of technology on relationships, particularly in long-term committed marriages.

  • Leaving a Good Man
    Sep 25 2024

    In today’s episode of The Loving Truth, I address the complex and often painful decision of leaving a good man. Many women find themselves in a situation where they are married to someone who is genuinely kind, caring, and stable—yet they feel unfulfilled or disconnected. I share my personal experience and explore the challenges of holding two truths at once: loving and caring for a good person while also recognizing they may not be the right partner for your most intimate relationship.

    In this episode, I encourage listeners to explore whether a "good man" is the right partner for them and empower them to make decisions that honor their needs, while still maintaining respect and care for their partner.

  • Will My Partner Ever Change?
    Sep 18 2024

    “Will my partner ever change? Because I really want him to.” What a great question - and it’s one I hear all the time.

    Let me start with this: Yes, people can change. And I can say this with deep humility… the person I was in my first marriage is NOT the person I am now.

    In this episode, I talk about the ways I’ve changed in my own relationships (and the reasons why), plus

    • what we really have control over (and what we don’t)
    • what is actually our personal responsibility (and what belongs to our partners)
    • and the greatest teacher of my life (and probably yours!)
