The Uncommons

We talk about the internal tension between pursuing ambition and wanting to be present for a young family: wanting to achieve more while also being present and attentive to the needs of people who matter most, and how we navigate and struggle with that balance.

We talk about marriage and romance challenges while caring for small kids: The Challenges of prioritizing your marriage when life gets overwhelming. From kids to business to exhaustion and what it takes to choose each other even when resentment builds.

We talk about perfectionism: how it can help set high standards and push you forward, but also create pressure in your life, relationships, and family, and how we’re learning to find the balance.

We talk about the identity shifts that happen in marriage and while growing a family: from independence to partnership, control to letting go, and how both of us have changed along the way.

In our first episode, we share who we are, why we started this podcast, and the real-life challenges that shaped us. From navigating hard seasons to growing through them, this is an honest conversation about what it takes to build a strong relationship and family when life isn’t easy.
