from Together- The Sacred We · host Michael Elliott and Courtney Wren
If you’ve outgrown conventional relationship advice and are craving a deeper, more conscious way of loving, this episode is for you.In a world that emphasizes hyper-independence, self-healing, and “doing your own work,” many couples feel confused about how to actually grow together. Sacred relationship offers a radically different paradigm—one where love becomes a living practice of mutual evolution, nervous system maturity, and devotion to the shared space between two people.In this foundational episode, Mike & Courtney explore how sacred relationship redefines modern love by moving beyond unconscious patterns, codependence myths, and purely individual growth. They share personal stories from their own marriage, the mentors who shaped their journey, and why thriving relationships require radical sovereignty AND deep togetherness.This conversation is an invitation into a more mature, embodied form of love—one that creates not just stability, but vitality, coherence, and real transformation for both partners.✨ In this episode:What sacred relationship actually is (and what it’s not)Why hyper-independence weakens intimacyThe difference between individual healing and relational masteryWhy couples need support from people living this workHow the “Sacred We” becomes a third, guiding intelligenceWhy relationship can be an accelerated path of awakeningChapters:00:00 Introduction and Welcome00:14 Defining Sacred Relationship01:42 The Journey of Self-Love and Togetherness04:13 Challenges and Growth in Relationships07:23 The Role of Therapists and Guides09:16 Personal Development vs. Relational Skills12:36 The Importance of Relational Support17:24 The We Space and Mutual Growth29:57 The Role of Adaptive Child in Relationships30:23 Understanding the Adaptive Child30:43 The Role of the Wise Adult32:31 The Power of Sacred Relationships35:17 The Importance of Supportive Circles39:45 Navigating Triggers and Growth43:18 The Impact of Sacred Relationship Coaching48:54 Reflecting on Your Support System50:02 Invitation to Sacred Relationship57:50 Final Thoughts and Encouragement🎁 Free Gift: Leave a 5-star review, screenshot it, and send it to https://www.sacredrelating.com/together-podcast-gift to receive our Guided Journal Practice: Coming Home to Clarity.🌱 Join the Together Community → https://www.sacredrelating.com/ 💛 Work with Mike & Courtney 2:2 → https://www.sacredrelating.com/sacred-relating-couplesWork with Mike → https://www.itsmikeelliott.com/coachingWork with Courtney → https://www.courtneywren.com/rebirth📺Subscribe to our YouTube Channel → https://www.youtube.com/@thetogetherpodcast🏹Join the Initiated Man Waitlist→ https://www.itsmikeelliott.com/initiated-man-waitlist💎 Join the Waitlist for The Holy Mama Membership →https://www.courtneywren.com/holymamawaitlistDonation link 👇🙏🏼❤️🌏https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=VWHABJWZ749X4Email:[email protected][email protected]Website:www.itsmikeelliott.comwww.sacredrelaring.comwww.courtneywren.comInstagram:@[email protected] MUSHROOM PRODUCTShttps://mindfulmeds.io/THE SKIN DEEP CARDS: https://shop.theskindeep.com/collections/allPromo Code: Together15
