Episode 2: Why Being Triggered Was The Best Thing That Happened To UsIn this episode of Keeping Up with the Rodgers: The Hard Talks, we’re diving into something most couples try to avoid—being triggered. Instead of seeing those emotional reactions as signs that something is wrong, we share how they became some of the greatest catalysts for growth in our marriage.We talk honestly about the arguments, misunderstandings, and repeated patterns that forced us to look inward instead of pointing fingers. From feeling disrespected or unheard to confronting old wounds and unmet expectations, we unpack how our triggers exposed deeper issues we didn’t even realize we were carrying.This conversation builds on the foundation we laid in Episode 1 as we continue unpacking love, conflict, growth, and the uncomfortable moments that have shaped us. No filters. No pretending. Just real conversations about how leaning into the hard moments—rather than running from them—transformed the way we show up for each other.Sometimes the very thing that feels like it’s breaking you is actually what builds you.This is why being triggered was the best thing that happened to us.
