TIRED OF THE LIES AND THE SPIN perpetuated in the culture about men and women, sex and love, marriage and motherhood? If so, get ready to hear hard-hitting truths that will make you cry out “Yes! Finally someone tells it like it is!” In her signature no-nonsense style, author and relationship coach Suzanne Venker offers support, motivation, and countercultural guidance on how to prioritize love and family and build strong relationships at home.
In this episode, Suzanne talks with Alex Clark of Turning Point USA about, among other things, why it’s more important than ever to raise children who do not toe the cultural line but who instead march to their own drum— whether we’re talking about health and wellness (which is Alex’s passion) or careers, or debt and lifestyle, or Suzanne’s fav: marriage and family.
Alex is the host of the formerly titled podcast The Spillover wh...

Dating in America has become an absolute mess. Men and women have no compass for how to proceed and no idea what the roles and the rules are anymore.
In this episode, Suzanne lists 7 dating rules for marriage-minded women since they have the power to get to what they ultimately want: marriage.

For decades this has been the relationship narrative passed on to the young and unattached. But my experience as a relationship coach suggests the opposite is true.
So does the data.
