    - What is romance? Is it a need, a want, a dated pursuit?

    - The Rom-Com roadmap that leads straight to a restraining order.

    - J.T. describes the balance between the mystery of romance and the unpredictability of surprise.

    - Does an act of romance imply expectation and/or reciprocation?

  • Maintenance Sex/Scheduled Sex: Does Intentionality Threaten Intimacy?
    Jan 22 2025

    Does putting sex on the schedule reduce satisfaction? Jordan argues that intentionality and anticipation are reason enough to jump on the dirty date night wagon. J.T. shares his experience with a calendar that unfortunately led to...crickets.

    While the word schedule might not have the best connotation, the planning and prioritizing of intimacy might be transformative for a relationship. What are the odds that you both are in the mood at the same time? Free from distraction and regrettable bloating?? If you and your partner share a consistent connection, can you still expect the same pressure around birthdays, holidays, anniversaries? We plan for vacations and life aspirations, so why not sex?

    Listen to discover how to approach your partner if you’re feeling disconnected, how talk and touch can get you back on track, and ways to embrace the awkward. Let this episode be an inspiration for the imagination.

  • SEASON 2 KICK OFF! Rebuilding Connection: The Choice to Get Bitter or Better with Cassie Fortman (Pt 1)
    Jan 15 2025

    Cassie (FREAKING) Fortman is here! Buckle up, beautiful friends. Season 2 opens with a 2-Part conversation that takes CONNECTION to the next level.

    J.T. and Jordan are joined by Cassie, the Guiding Connector, a dynamic designer and Founder of the Grand Mesa Business Guild, to discuss her heroic rounds of reinvention. Cassie bravely shares her unthinkable journey from indoctrination to freedom and healing from religious trauma.

    At the age of 27, Cassie celebrated her first birthday in nearly a decade. Following a divorce that, within her church family and community, ended her very existence (aka she died), Cassie was faced with rebuilding her entire network of support and connection, down to uncovering her most pure, authentic self. This magnetizing, resilient human being reminds us of our inherent power, how simple it is to take better care of ourselves, and why we all have the choice to get bitter or better.

    In Part 1, discover:

    - Why strong women are often drawn to religious extremism

    - The threat of a single, independent (thinking) woman and the appointment of Cassie's second husband

    - The five months to feign grief between a divorce and marrying a stranger

    - The public shaming of being disfellowshipped or shunned by the church

    - Cassie's love of design and (the once forbidden) journey through higher education

    - How COVID robbed Cassie's graduation but cued another reinvention

    ***Join us for PART 2, when Cassie shares her WINS and the details of her self-care transformation.
