Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Strengthening Your Marriage While Caring for a Child with Special Needs
Q: What was the turning point that helped you reconnect as a couple?
Todd's reaffirmation of commitment and Kristin feeling heard during a moment of crisis, which rekindled their shared vows and faith-driven approach to solving problems together.
Strengthening Your Marriage While Caring for a Child with Special Needs
Q: Tell us about the 'survival internship' you describe in your book and how it relates to your parenting moment.
It was a rigorous test of communication and teamwork under pressure, forcing them to learn to navigate stress together and understand each other's needs in order to survive and support their child.
Understanding Your Middle Schooler (Part 1 of 2)
Q: What three things do middle schoolers want from their parents?
They want to be listened to, taken seriously, and understood, with parents modeling these behaviors and engaging in open conversation rather than issuing commands.
Understanding How Birth Order Impacts Your Marriage
Q: What are practical tools for first-borns and last-borns to communicate better?
Split responsibilities clearly, acknowledge each other's strengths, and use concrete, respectful communication rather than expecting automatic alignment; for example, first-borns may need to back off perfectionism while last-borns learn to consider others' needs beyond themselves.
Understanding How Birth Order Impacts Your Marriage
Q: How does birth order influence who we marry and how we interact in marriage?
Birth order shapes tendencies like organization, loyalty, or assertiveness, which influences compatibility and how couples negotiate roles, communication, and conflict; the key is recognizing differences and learning to meet each other's needs within a faith-centered framework.
