102. Our Story: Reclaiming Trust and Intimacy After a "Nuclear Explosion"

This week, things are a little different! Special guest host Tony Overbay turns the microphone around to interview us about our own raw, 28-year marriage journey. We pull back the curtain on the first 17 years of our marriage when we struggled deeply with intimacy, and the "nuclear explosion" of pornography discovery. We discuss how we moved past "white-knuckling" into true, differentiated connection by shifting how we handle safety, honesty, and desire. Key breakthroughs unpacked in this interview: The Happiness Trap: Why Amy's belief that it was her job to make Greg happy was actually a misery-producing trap that caused her to "disappear" from the marriage. Redefining Safety: How Greg realized that emotional safety had nothing to do with physical protection, but everything to do with his emotional consistency and taking care of his own "stuff". The Power of Daily Rituals: How we bookend our days with a 5-minute nightly emotional check-in and 10 minutes of morning non-demand touch (simmering) to create safe emotional and physical spaces. 🔗 JOIN OUR COMMUNITY & CELEBRATE WITH US: 👥 Join Roommates to Soulmates Group Coaching: Ready to learn alongside other couples in a supportive community?
