This is a quote I’ve heard more than once & while it may technically be true, viewing our life by the hours we have doesn’t actually correlate to how much we can achieve. Today, we talk about a different way to reframe our time when it comes to tackling our to do list.
Does your partner ever get mad just because you are mad? But you weren't even mad at them to begin with? Well, we struggle with that quite a lot around here. Today, we not so gracefully break down an argument we had just this past weekend. This is a real and honest play by play conversation between Wes and I, but at the end of it, we come to a nice resolution that if we can finally get into regular practice will change SO much about how we fight... and maybe how you do, too.

If you are a mom or dad to toddlers & babies, this episode is for you. There is so much about being a new parent people talk about… but what they don’t mention is the disconnect that happens in the bedroom. Today, we are here to help you gain some perspective, offer hope, and give a few tips to help you through this season. It is a tough one. We have been there… (and still are with one kid)… we get it!
Do you ever wish your husband would watch your kids? I know so many moms who have to beg or bribe their man to keep the kids and then leave them notes on what to do. Today, I (Tera) am sharing how we took baby steps to have play an equal role in being the caregiver for our kids… it is much harder on me than it is on him. And just a warning- your toes may get stepped on a little. But it is all with love.

From the title, it seems we are all over the place today but we are both sharing where we are at. Haha Wes is recovering from his vasectomy & I’m recovering from his intense travel schedule. Loneliness is often an overlooked emotion because it doesn’t show up the way we expect it to. Today we talk about how it feels & what it’s long term effects can do. Trigger warning- we go deep & touch on suicidal thoughts.
If you have ever been curious about spicing up your sex life but don’t know where to begin, or you have wanted to ask your partner to incorporate a sex toy in the mix but are feeling nervous- this episode is for you. We dive into how we got started, what we have tried, and creating boundaries so you both feel safe. Obviously not a kid or my mom friendly episode.
I have found myself saying this phrase a lot recently then heard 4 other women mention their age as a barrier within 36 hours of each other. Is this a feeling carried only by women? Is this a thought valid? And what are we holding ourselves back from?
Even in the most wonderful marriages, there is no such thing as a "perfect" partner. There are always little things that we do as individuals that make the other person feel a tiny bit of rage inside. Today, we are sharing our pet peeves and showing no relationship is perfect.
Why do we talk about sex all the time? What is the big deal? Well, we all talk about it, even when we are avoiding the subject it is literally all around us. We want to change the narrative. We want to be in control of how that narrative affects us mentally. So, today we share why that matters and how bringing it up in the light actually opens us up to more freedom.
The wedding night was less than spectacular, and it set the tone for the next 12 years of our marriage. All of the fun stuff had been removed and now we were just getting it done. Today, we dive into mindsets, fears, and what held us back for so many years. THEN, we dive into what has pushed us forward into what we experience today. I will definitely have a vulnerability hangover after this one 😅.
Do you ever feel insecure when you enter a room filled with adults? I suddenly resort back to my 8 year old self of feeling awkward on the playground. Only now, I am 35 with 4 kids hanging from the monkey bars. I genuinely believed that friendships would get easier but in reality they just get more difficult to navigate. Today, we dissect why they are hard and what we can do to gain new ones.
Often times, women find themselves carrying the load of their home whether they are working full time or not. It is often invisible work that leads to resentment and burnout in marriage. Today, we hash through why we need to balance the weight and what it looks like to feel like the woman's time isn't valued. We also share about the book Fair Play by Eve Rodsky and the 100 tasks our household requires to help balance the scales.
I am guilty of saying... if you do____ I will have sex with you. But is sex meant to be earned? We have a few conflicting thoughts on the matter. Today, Wes & I share a conversation that breaks down what we think ACTUALLY creates a marriage where sex happens without the ultimatums.
Does having emotions or being rowdy make my kids bad? After reading an Instagram post about how parents should make sure their kids are “good,” I had to process a lot of emotions that I have battled from the time my first kid was 10 months old and hurt another kid for the first time. Being a parent feels impossible to navigate because each child is so different… and people without kids or “easy” (aka- compliant) kids are so quick to judge. We talk through handling those emotions and share the single most shameful moment we have had in parenthood.
