Trust Me

Jon makes a radical life change over night and Alexis is caught off guard.  The two of them talk about getting to the other side of the argument.

Hey Friends, This conversation between Alexis and I is a little more candid than our typical style.  Instead of discussing cultural norms, sighting stores, pulling from data, so on and so forth, we sit down to discuss the current state of our lives.  We are building a new home, selling our old home, going through legal battles, parenting and Jon's business is getting busier all at the same time.   We really hope you enjoy this episode.  If you do and feel so inclined it would be wonderful of you to leave a review for us.  

Alexis and Jon talk about how they work through fights, how they want to  fight, what experts says, and what they are going to do in the future  to be better about fighting.

We talk about our experience in quarantine.  What has been hard, what has been easy and how we deal with all of this insanity.  Love you and take care.

In this episode we go back over the dynamics of being in a relationship where Alexis, the women, makes more money.  How does this affect their budgeting, ego, and lifestyle.  

In our house the traditional gender roles have been flip flopped.  Jon is a stay at home Dad with a side business and Alexis is the breadwinner.  Coming home everyday tired from grinding it out at the office.  Jon is tired after doing thankless chores around home all day and chauffeuring the children around.  How do they make it work and maintain a happy home life balance?

Overthinking is always on a collision course with negative self talk.  We talk about the different methods we use to try to overcome the paralyzing grips of this thought behavior.  

In our first episode of season 3 we discuss anxiety surrounding Valentine's Day.   Should you get her something even though she insists on not wanting anything?  The answer to that question and many more are in the episode.  

The title is definitely click bait. This is our last episode of the year. Alexis and I try to hone in on our why. Why do we do this podcast. What value does it potentially bring fans and us. It’s been a fun year. Thank you for hanging out with us!

Is there any cure for incessant bickering, miscommunication and reacting quickly to emotions? We think the cure lines in the intentional practice of mindfulness.
