When the earthquake hit, I was in the shower. Fifteen seconds of violent shaking, fifteen seconds of relief… and then panic. Was my wife safe? What followed was a desperate race home through steep hills and broken roads, and into a moment that changed my marriage, my mindset, and my definition of resilience forever. In this episode, I share my true earthquake survival story — not just about escaping danger, but about how one terrifying day became the foundation for a stronger, more connected relationship.
