Modern Marriage with Monica
A couple of years ago, when I went searching for specific tips, tools and tricks to help me level up my marriage. I read books, I searched the internet, I watch YouTube...But the information I found was...shall I say...lacking! The information also was not particularly relevant to the unique challenges of today’s modern marriages with both people juggling the pressures of working outside the home, living up to societal pressures of those ”perfect” homes, bodies, and all other kinds of expectations that comes from social media. And speaking of social media, what about all the ”temptations”, instant access and just overall problems that come along with it. What was out there tended to be fluffy statements like ”be more loving” or ”communicate more”, or the God-awful advice of ”Never go to bed angry”-like anybody can solve anything when they are exhausted... No wonder the divorce rate is where it’s at! I’m the kind of person who needs specifics. Tell me exactly what to do! but there was nothing out there, so I created my own tips, tools and tricks. But the question I’m sure you are all wondering is...Did it work? And to that, I would say. YES! Not only did my techniques work... they also worked fast! Now I am taking my journey, those lessons, and am here to help marriages and relationships, not only survive, but to thrive. If you are married, ever wanted to be, or just want the absolutely best relationship possible. This is the podcast for you!

Pearl Davis has been standing outside churches with a sign asking one simple question: should a wife obey her husband? And the wildest part is who's pushing back. Not the secular crowd you'd expect — the Christians. The people whose own book is clear about it.
In this conversation I sat down with Robin and Avis to dig into why that word — obey, submit — makes even faithful women flinch, and why almost every objection ends up in ...
Has your wife stopped being your wife in the bedroom? You split the chores, you split the bills, you co-parent — she might be the perfect partner in every way except this one. If that's been your reality for months (or years), you don't have a marriage problem. You have a polarity problem. You've become her roommate. And roommates don't hit the sheets.
I'm Monica, and I help men build the marriage they actually want — hot, steam...
Your wife says she has no sex drive. She says it's stress, hormones, the kids, her age — that it's not personal. But what if the truth is she has a libido… just not for you?
In this video, I'm breaking down the 6 "tells" that reveal whether your wife actually has low libido — or whether she has low libido FOR YOU specifically. There's a massive difference, and most husbands spend years believing the wrong story because they're t...
The Christian dating and marriage world is broken — and the men inside it are paying the price. In this episode, I sit down with Matt Wilson of the Effective Purpose podcast to talk about what's really going on with Christian men: why so many "good guys" stay single into their late 30s, why churches refuse to call out female sin while piling accountability onto men, and why the "just be more godly and a wife will appear" advice has...
Hoe_math joins me to break down what's actually happening in the relationship and dating market — and why most men are losing without ever understanding the game they're in.
He's the chart guy. The one drawing zones, levels, and behavior maps that
explain female psychology better than anything else on the internet. I brought him on because his audience is the younger guys trying to GET married, and mine is the men trying to ST...
You've probably seen the story one too many times - guy posts online about his wife cheating with her personal trainer. But why is it ALWAYS the trainer? Or the firefighter? Or the professor? Is this just a cliche, or is there something deeper happening here?

Tired of doctors constantly bashing hormone pellets? In this video, I break down why I think the criticism is unfair and often comes from personal bias rather than patient-centered care.
Hormone pellets are small, bioidentical (estrogen and testosterone) implants inserted under the skin with a minor incision in the hip. They provide a slow, steady release: levels rise over about 6 weeks, stabilize for months, then gradually taper ...
