Growth Minded Marriage

Growth Minded Marriage

Mary and Kevin are an ordinary Midwest couple with three kids (7, 6 and 3) living our dream life. Join us, every Monday, as we share our weekly life review in an effort to share and examine our most authentic selves. Through this review, we hope you will hear the good, the bad and the ugly moments of self-discovery on our growth journey. Listen while we succeed and fail, rest and motivate, think and rethink. We hope this podcast is a living example of what self-actualization looks like in the everyday. Above all, we hope to grow together. Welcome to the Growth Minded Marriage.

Season 2 officially begins September 6th,  but as we get behind the mic to limber up we want to share what to expect in the upcoming season. If you were around for Season 1 first, thank you, and second you will notice lots of changes. In Season 2 we plan to focus on the parts of podcasting we love and ditch most everything else. Because (if you need reminding like we did) we get to make it up!

Whether you believe burnout, adrenal fatigue or HPA axis disruption are real medical conditions or not, it is undeniable that stress has a negative impact on the body. We all have different sources of stress and different tolerance levels for that stress. This is not about comparison, who has it worse or who can suck it up and keep going longest. This is an honest conversation...

We have had to take some really hard and honest looks at our careers over the years. I was a full time working mom with 1, 2 and then 3 kids. Kevin was a work from home dad and also our primary caretaker. Life looks differently now. We both are working part time, and sharing the kid duties more evenly. After all the changes, we both have come out the other side with a sense of fulfillment and satisfaction with our careers. Join us ...

A few months ago, Kevin read Adam Grant's latest book Think Again, and loved it. On Kevin's suggestion, I went searching for Adam on my favorite media, podcasts. I was in luck! I found his podcast by TED called Work Life, and downloaded an old episode from May 2019 called The Perils of Following Your Career Passion. Needless to say, I was very intrigued. I knew from Kevin that Adam has a contrarian perspective, but I had ...

“Most of life is choosing what you already chose.... Our lives are stories of recommitment.  ~David Brooks

Kevin and I come full circle in this episode. We are recommiting to our dream life.  Our lives will be a balance between a satisfaction with who we are now, and an openness towards who we could become. We are focused on making the ordinary feel extraordinary. Our lives are about staying true to what we have already ch...
