What do great relationships and thriving businesses have in common? They both fail when you're only focused on the end goal instead of showing up intentionally every day. Dr. Sara and Dr. Marisa get raw about the messy reality of transitioning from boss mode to wife mode, why "How was your day?" conversations aren't cutting it anymore, and the uncomfortable truth about growing together versus growing apart.

This episode dives deep into the real talk about maintaining intimate connection while chasing big dreams. From weekly marriage check-ins that prevent roommate syndrome to navigating wildly different work schedules, this conversation is for anyone who refuses to choose between love and ambition.

🔥 In This Episode:

  • The art of shedding your "entrepreneur armor" when you walk through your front door
  • How to handle the 80/20 seasons when one partner needs to carry more weight
  • Weekly marriage meetings that actually work (and why they're non-negotiable)
  • The difference between independence and interdependence in relationships
  • Leading by example when you want your partner to do their own inner work
  • Why scheduling spontaneity isn't an oxymoron - it's survival
  • Creating sacred transitions between work energy and home energy

Stop choosing between building your empire and nurturing your most important relationship. This episode proves that when you show up intentionally for love, everything else gets easier - including success.

Cardiac Cowboys

Cardiac Cowboys

The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
