Today I'm sharing with you one of my PET PEEVES that I hear all over--even from those I admire and respect greatly--and that is talking about your husband like he's a puppy that needs "training." In today's episode I'm going to try to onboard you onto my mission to step away from this mindset by explaining to you the unintended consequences of this way of talking. I hope you find it convincing! :) If this episode spoke to you, I'd love to have you join me in my next round of First Year Married!

This week I brought on my good friend Miriam Campbell for a fascinating discussion on how to connect to others when it's challenging. Sometimes we don't want to connect, or we are going through all the motions but we're not totally there. Listen to hear why this is all part of our process--a process we really do want to be engaged in. You can learn more about working with Miriam here: https://bookme.name/skillsforconnection
Even if you have a great positive thought, if your nervous system has been hijacked and you're in fight or flight, that thought is just not going to stick.

When life is stressful, sometimes the last thing you think you can handle is supporting a struggling husband.

The Business Trip Phenomenon: when your husband goes away and suddenly you are SUPER functional and do so much better than when he was home--WHY is that? Why can't you manage when he's around? And then, instead of him coming home and seeing how great you're doing, you totally fall apart. Has this ever happened to you? Listen this week to hear why this happens and what you can do to have a smoother reunion after his trips, and what you can keep from the magical wonder-woman energy from when he was away (and what you shouldn't expect to carry over into your day-to-day life.)

This week we're taking a deep dive into BOUNDARIES. What does it really mean to "have no boundaries" and what do we do with those people in our lives who make us crazy because they don't respect our boundaries? How do we set a boundary and, most importantly, what if our own boundaries need some work? Referenced in this episode: Facing Codependence by Pia Mellody
This week, we're all (myself included!), listening to a replay of "Your Relationship with Yourself" - episode 89. Enjoy! In this replay episode, I emphasize the importance of having a positive relationship with oneself, focusing on understanding the mechanics of developing that relationship, the concept of thought work, and its relevance to relationships. I will cover the first of three fundamentals of thought work in the context of relationships: one's relationship with oneself, one's relationship with their spouse, and one's relationship with others. Just like what ends up in our garage, our brains can contain various thoughts, including ones we intentionally put there, ones we struggle with, and ones we unknowingly adopted from others. I want to challenge the misguided notion that holding on to negative thoughts (or a really tall cabinet) will lead to growth.
Hey there! In this podcast episode, I want to talk to you about why it's so important to keep your phone out of the bedroom, especially when it comes to maintaining a healthy marriage. Now, I know that there's no one-size-fits-all approach to marriage advice, but I truly believe that every couple should design their own marriage and create a relationship that works for them. In this episode, I explain that getting your phone out of the bedroom is a crucial step in maintaining your mental health and building intimacy with your partner. With social media and constant communication, it's easy to feel overwhelmed and anxious, which can disrupt your sleep and make it difficult to build strong relationships. I also discuss the challenges of giving up your phone as an alarm clock, but emphasize the importance of making conscious decisions about the values you prioritize in your marriage. Ultimately, I hope this episode helps you take a step towards a healthier, happier, and more intimate marriage. As noted in the episode, you can join How to Glow here: kaylalevin.com/coaching
Hope sounds so nice, doesn't it? Except when it gets us into trouble.

Whether infertility has personally affected you or not, it has a major impact on the Jewish community.

Kayla, thank you so much for being consistent in putting out quality content. I got married 4 months ago, and on top of the usual pressures that the change brings, am also now living in a new country, with another language (that I don't speak), away from my family and friends. Your podcast and coaching has been a great encouragement to me. As I went throughout the day, I used to throw pity parties and cry in the kitchen because of how lonely I felt. Now, when I notice that my brain is starting to play the sad violin music and offer me a cocktail of emotions, I am able to stop and observe the thought, rather than swallowing it. Through your podcast, I've found a mentor, a voice in my head that doesn't let me let myself believe everything that I think. Thank you for all your work in putting this together. ❤️❤️❤️
