What happens when something doesn't feel in alignment anymore?
What happens when your goals feel further out of reach?

Katrina shares about a new chapter of reevaluation within her life and with her kids.

What kind of example are we setting for our children regarding hobbies and living a full life?

Are we more focused on chasing the dollars and accomplishments/accolades, or are we soaking up the opportunities to be present and more self-aware with what our bodies are craving?

How are you simplifying your life right now? We'd love to hear in our DMs on Instagram @TheSiblingTrap

In a relationship, why are so many quick to leave rather than stay and make it work?

Both Barry and Katrina have experienced divorce and discuss the weight of staying versus leaving when kids are involved.

What are appealing aspects that may motivate some to leave a relationship? What uncomfortable things are they avoiding when leaving?

Katrina shares a milestone she and her significant other experienced that showed healing and consideration for each other.

How do your past relationships influence the patterns you continue into new relationships? Are you having the hard conversations early on to build a strong foundation or coasting through the honeymoon phase without intentionality?

We'd love to hear your perspective on this question over on Instagram @TheSiblingTrap

Coming from two different ends of the spectrum, how are we navigating co-parenting?

Barry has a few years ahead of Katrina in this category, and he shares a bit about a recent revelation of how far he’s come with his ex.

Katrina is just starting this co-parenting journey as she’s in the middle of a divorce.How can you focus on respectful communication daily and during certain circumstances?

Focusing on being fair with finances regarding children, is it petty, or is it smart?

*Announcement* For the time being, given our chaotic schedules in this season of life, we are going to BI-weekly episodes moving forward!

Thank you so much for your support. We’d love to hear about your experience in co-parenting over in our DMS @TheSiblingTrap!

The very heated debate of man vs. bear has led us to today's episode.

Women are sharing about why they would feel more comfortable seeing and being alone with a bear in the woods than with a random man in the woods.

But I propose a question to Barry and put him on the spot by asking what he is doing to help women feel safer in the world.

This is the perfect reason to be more mindful and compassionate to those around you and how others are affected by how you carry yourself through the world.

For men, how are you being intentional with your actions every day when you're out and about to make others feel safe?

Barry comes into the conversation with a unique perspective on his work as a social media specialist for a gun manufacturer and the trouble he has promoting the mission or community within the firearms industry.

With an extensive history within the military, he’s rarely been without a weapon in the jobs he’s had until now.

Katrina has a vastly different stance on this. As a mom, she is personally very resistant to embracing this topic.

What do YOU feel comfortable with when it comes to weapons?

How can we be equipped to defend ourselves if needed, and how can we protect our children in today’s reality?

Do you lean more towards Barry’s beliefs on firearms or more towards Katrina and her hesitancy to acquire the skills or products?

When you're in a dark place, compliments just hit differently. Sometimes you are questioning people's motives for giving compliments in the first place. But then there are times when you're so emotionally fragile that you can't let yourself really feel the compliment because you could spontaneously become a puddle of tears.

Katrina started a new job recently and talks about the imposter syndrome that comes along with learning new things and receiving praise from others.

Do you feel confident to receive compliments from others? Or are you quick to clap back with several reasons why you aren't worthy of them?

Chime in and let us know your point of view over on Instagram @TheSiblingTrap!

Can using social media as a dating app be a more respectable way to meet someone in today's society? Or do you feel that meeting someone in person out at a bar or somewhere similar?

Barry and Katrina discuss what to do if someone messages you repeatedly on social media. What messages should you reply to, and what types of messages are red flags?

We'd love to hear your opinion on this matter. Head over to Instagram @TheSiblingTrap and let us know!

In today’s society, it can feel like society is against us when entering a new relationship. The scrutiny and outside opinions can dampen the start of something new and help you see red flags you may be overlooking.

Would you/do you share your spouse or significant other on social media? Why or why not?

Is it a red flag if someone does NOT want to go public with your relationship?

Similarly, would you share about a breakup on social media?

Katrina and Barry reflect on their differing stances on this topic and whether they would do things differently next time.
