I’m really happy that I found this podcast. I must admit that I’ve almost binged it all. It’s insightful and educational without feeling too serious. Allison and John have very earnest and difficult conversations at times, but their love and respect for each other as well as the fact that they really have fun together, make the conversations a bit lighthearted. I also really appreciate the fact that Allison, as a relationship coach, is willing to speak honestly about her own relationship and its... more
Truly my favorite podcast of the year! A perfect combination of serious and fun. Allison and John are so great to listen to, and the scenarios and guests are excellent. I hope this show continues for a long time. An easy five stars!
I’ve been following Allison for years and love all the projects she puts out. Honestly she’s been sooo helpful in navigating and accepting my ocd so thank you for that :) It’s been awesome getting to see John’s personality and opinions! This pod was a great idea and I’m so happy I get to listen. Not married yet but best believe I will be submitting a marriage moment when the time comes. Also I’ve never read a substack in my life but John’s is SO insightful and touching.

uncomfortable) is the deep vulnerability shared about their own relationship. It is so valuable to watch people, in real time, talk abut their relationship and differing perspectives. While they do not always agree, you can see there is a basis of good faith. It isn’t about portraying perfection - its about care. I am grate... more
I love this show. It came out right when I was getting engaged and has helped spark so many great conversations with my partner. I would have listened anyway because I love Allison’s mental health advocacy, but it is extra helpful at this time in my life!
