You may not know this about us but we are COMPLETE OPPOSITES. Oh wait, we only constantly talk about this on here. Nearly every assessment we've ever taken points out how different we are.

We share our favorite… and least favorite things about being married to the opposite!
Read MoreIt has been a tough couple of weeks as we all learned about the deaths of Ahmaud Arbery, Breonna Taylor, and George Floyd. We need to have some tough conversations about race. But that requires vulnerability. We have to shed those layers and embrace imperfection. In this episode, we share a few recent moments of vulnerability in our relationship, how it has brought us together, and where we still need work. We believe vulnerability is key to having difficult conversations and can improve race relations in our world. Being vulnerable with your partner can take your relationship to the next level.

While many of these apply directly to relationships, we modified the dysfunctions to our relationship in this episode. Tune in to hear more about how absence of trust, lack of communication, fear of conflict, lack of commitment, and little fun impact our relationship.
