I Am The Words You Are The Tune

One hundred episodes of real conversations for real women — and for this one, I brought someone new into the studio. My husband Craig. The first man to ever sit across from me on Mom~2~Mom Mentoring. Craig and I are wired completely differently. 👀 I see the world through rose-colored glasses full of sparkle and shine. He sees it through spreadsheets.   📣 I process everything out loud. He goes quiet and sits with it for days.   💃🏻 I live out loud. He surrounds himself with a few close friends and lets the world carry on without him.   And somewhere in the middle of all that difference — we have built something that is genuinely life-giving for both of us. Not because we became the same. But because we kept choosing each other anyway. In this episode, we get honest about what connection actually is — and what it isn't. We talk about ➤ core fears, ➤ the cycle that trips most couples up, ➤ what safety has to do with reconnection, ➤ ➤ ➤ and what Craig's spontaneous Neil Diamond reference in the middle of our conversation taught me all over again about why we work. This isn't a perfect marriage episode. There's no formula here. Just two people, six years in, still learning — and still choosing.   What you'll take away: • Why connection is not the same as proximity — and how to feel the difference • The core fear cycle that trips up most couples (and how to interrupt it) • What safety has to do with reconnection — and why God is the safest place first • What it looks like when the dreamer and the realist stop defending their own plots and tend the garden together   LINKS MENTIONED IN THE EPISODE Notice, Name, Feel, & Free Your Emotions - A FREE RESOURCE https://mistyhughes.myflodesk.com/feelings   Contact Misty & Craig For Symbis (Saving Your Marriage Before It Starts) https://mistyhughes.com/inquire
