Jenna Kennedy

@thejennkennedy and @patrick.kennedy__ have an amazing love story that is unconventional to societal standards. They share how they have navigated spiritual awakenings individually and as a couple that ultimately drew them closer together. I believe they are a prime example of what is possible in a relationship and what it means to navigate life changes and challenges, together.

Stan Tatkin

Dr. Stan has been one of my favorite Authors on relationships for a while now, and my relationship has improved since implementing some of the tools he gives in his book Your Brain On Love.  In this episode, we talked about his story getting into his work, how he thinks about relationships, and his view of what makes relationships last!  Dr. Stan Tatkin is the developer of the Psychobiological Approach to Couple Therapy (PACT). PACT is a polytheoretical, non-linear approach to dyadic systems that integrates developmental neuroscience, arousal regulation, and attachment theory. PACT has a reputation for effectively treating the most challenging couples.

Garrain Jones

This powerhouse couple is one of the most inspiring couples I've had the pleasure of interviewing AND knowing. Not only do they have an amazing relationship and are super fun to hang with, but they are also millionaires through companies that truly serve and leave a positive impact on people's lives. I am friends with both of them and have witnessed their relationship blossom over the years - and especially seeing "behind the scenes" - they are the same off camera as they are ON camera which says A LOT.   This episode goes deep into how they manifested partnership AND everything they have done to work on their relationship to get it to where it is today. How to fight, weekly love meetings, and understanding how to collaborate as two very powerful people on their own, they shared TONS of practical guidance that can help you create the love you desire.   Follow Blair Jones - @Blair.rachel.jones on Instagram  Follow Garrain Jones - @Garrain.jones on Instagram and Garrainjones.com
