In this episode, we continue our conversation on the graphic I posted about "How to Communicate When Hurt".  Click here to reference the graphic. We discuss, at a very high level, some aspects of the "role" of male and female we see during creation in an effort to better understand each other.  There must be responsibility, accountability, and self-control in both members of the relationship because love honors and respects.  If you have any questions, comments, or topic suggestions for the podcast, please email [email protected] or reach out to us on social media.  You can find us under @journeywithAndrea in post platforms.

In this episode, we start off by discussing what healthy conversations look like - specifically when it comes to negative emotions. We reference a graphic (meme) titled Successful Ways to Communicate When Hurt put together by Dr. Ketam Hamdam @BrainHealthDoc.  Check out the meme for reference == > Click Here The conversation was a long one, so we split it up into two parts.  Part 2 will be posted next week. We are so thankful you are here.  If you haven't yet, would you follow the podcast, like the episode, and share it with your friends and family?

In this episode, we discuss how to approach and handle difficult, awkward conversations with those you are in close relationship with.  We give examples from our own lives and walk-through how we handled it - good and bad. Singles and dating couples, we also provide advice for those interested in pursuing marriage. Whether you are single or in a relationship, this is the episode for you.  

Mike and Andrea kick off the podcast by having an impromptu candid conversation about the different topics they'd like to cover in this podcast. We discuss a little about who they are and their relationship, but also a range of topics from salvation to sex.  They also rename the podcast from Candid Conversation to Together we Sparkle.  This episode is both informative and entertaining.
