  • Great Advice for Couples

    Thank you John and Nicole for creating this. I’ve been married for over 10 years and this podcast really exemplifies how to be and the mindset needed for a successful marriage. I’m subscribed on YouTube and to see you guys interact, is another layer for me to learn from.

    This podcast gives us both the man’s and woman’s point-of-view of things and promotes taking personal responsibility for the relationship. Keep up the good work.

  • Perfect advice

    This is the show I’ve been looking for. You get the side of the man, the woman, AND the opinions and advice coming from a healthy marriage. I wish everyone would listen to this, you guys really know what you’re talking about, and I listen to make sure I’m a great, imperfect partner for my next mate! Please keep making videos! 💝

  • Found you

    I have listened to a few other relationship podcasts, they always turn extreme on one side or the other for women/men. So far i relate more with the two of you. I’m only 6 podcasts in and enjoyed everyone. I love that you share current issues you’ve had and resolved them. All without dropping the F bomb every sentence 🤣

    Looking forward to finishing the older episodes and excited for the new.

    Thank you both!
