I Do, We Do

We love assessments over here. On past episodes we have discussed the DISC, Enneagram, Love Languages and Myers Briggs. In this episode, we dig into the Energy Leadership Index which enables leaders to hold up mirrors to their perceptions, attitudes, behaviors, and overall leadership capabilities. We hand the show over to special guest, Claire Becker who walks us through our results just as she does her coaching clients.

I Do, We Do

We’ve found ourselves on different pages in two major parts of our lives. With the extra time, we each invested it in different ways. For Billy, it has been his career. For Ashley, it has been parenthood. Investing time in these areas has also left the other behind - hence, we are on different pages. Listen in as we replay the first conversation we had about this and how we are already working through this.

I Do, We Do

We have a bone the pick with the Golden Rule - treat others the way you want to be treated. It is a rule that is engraved in our brains from a young age, but we think it’s wrong. ESPECIALLY in relationships. Listen to this episode as we upgrade to the Platinum Rule - treat others the way they want to be treated.

I Do, We Do

You may not know this about us, but we are COMPLETE OPPOSITES. Oh wait, we only constantly talk about that on this podcast. Nearly every assessment we've ever taken points out how different we are. Our Myers Briggs results point this out too. In this episode, we zero in on that first letter of the MBTI results - introvert vs extrovert. We share our favorite… and least favorite things about being married to the opposite!

It has been a tough couple of weeks as we all learned about the deaths of Ahmaud Arbery, Breonna Taylor, and George Floyd. We need to have some tough conversations about race. But that requires vulnerability. We have to shed those layers and embrace imperfection. In this episode, we share a few recent moments of vulnerability in our relationship, how its brought us together and where we still need work. Being vulnerable with your partner can take your relationship to the next level.

I Do, We Do

We are often asked how we spend SO much time together without driving each other crazy. Right now, a lot of couples are spending more time together than usual, which is leading to conflict. In this episode, we chat about how we thrive together through communication, vulnerability based trust and goal setting. The key to our partnership is that we focus on thriving rather than just surviving. This is how we grow together rather than apart.
