This episode is a first—Mark Herrin joins me on the podcast! After 30+ years of marriage, we’re opening up the door to our healing journey as a couple and inviting you into a raw, unfiltered conversation from our living room (with a dog at our feet and everything).

What started as my healing journey—after the loss of my mother and years of subconscious patterns finally catching up—turned into a transformation that touched every part of my life and by extension, Mark's life as well. In this episode, Mark and I share the 3 biggest shifts we’ve seen in each other through this process, how old stories were quietly running the show, and the powerful difference between reacting and responding in a relationship.

You’ll hear about:

• Why healing your own stories can shift your marriage—before your partner even starts doing the work
• What safety really means in a relationship (and how it leads to deeper intimacy)
• How resentment quietly builds walls, and what happens when you take the armor off
• Mark’s honest take on doing “the work” as a man—and what finally motivated him to step into it

This episode is a love letter to the couples who feel stuck in the good but not great zone… and to every woman who wonders, Can this get better if I start first?

Spoiler alert: It can. We’re proof. 💛
