Are you one of those Hallmark movie junkies? I have friends who go whole-hog, plopping down on the couch, propping up their feet, showing off those fuzzy socks that say “Leave Me Alone, I’m watching Hallmark movies”! Catch that plural “Hallmark movie(s)”. You can never “eat” just one! Why are those darn things so addictive, and a little contagious even? You may have been wondering just that, even as you can't help rewatching your favorite storylines, romances, and characters.

In this lighthearted episode, multi-award-winning author and global marriage educator, Ramona Zabriskie, and her daughter, Hannah, a member of Team WifeSavers, try to solve the riddle about what our penchant for predictable romances, reveal about us as women.

THROW ME A WIFESAVER: "Help! Why can't I stop watching Hallmark movies, especially at Christmas?"

KEY TOPICS IN THIS EPISODE:

  • Defining the essence of our womanly desires and longings
  • The seven reasons we keep coming back for more from Hallmark
  • What makes us happy as women, more than anything else
  • The belief we treasure about how the universe relates to us
  • What (or who) gives us life, especially in hard times and moments of decision
  • The one idea that inspires us with hope
  • How these stories strengthen our sense of self and desire for balance
  • What beauty, magic, and celebration does for us
  • The allure of repetitive representation of these principles
