Every version of you serves a purpose even the ones you hate looking back on. In this episode, we open up about the past versions of ourselves we needed in order to evolve into who we are today. From hitting a breaking point at 30, to facing shame, self-doubt, and uncomfortable truths, we talk about how those “ugly” moments helped shape our mindset, our marriage, and our mission.This isn’t just about personal growth, it’s about healing, ownership, and the kind of self-awareness that transforms everything. We break down how one decision, one moment of brutal honesty, sparked years of change in our relationship, our confidence, and the way we show up for each other. If you’ve outgrown a past version of yourself, drop a comment and tell us what they taught you. We’d love to hear it.-----------------------------------------------------------Ready to take your marriage to the next level?
