think happily ever after just happens when you meet the right person? yeah… no.

in this episode, i sit down with marriage + intimacy coach monica tanner—host of the Secrets of Happily Ever After podcast and author of Bad Marriage Advice—to unpack the truth about what actually keeps love alive. (hint: it’s not date nights or fancy vacations.)

we talk abandonment triggers, late-night spiral fights, the real work of rebuilding connection, and how to shift out of survival mode and into real intimacy. if you’ve ever found yourself apologizing just to keep the peace (or panicking the second your partner shuts down) this one’s gonna hit.

monica shares the exact tools she’s taught to thousands of couples to go from stuck and disconnected to safe, seen, and seriously in love again.

this isn’t about fixing your partner—it’s about owning your patterns, healing your stuff, and choosing intimacy on purpose.

ready to rewrite your love story? press play.
