We learn what has been transpiring in their lives since the arrival of baby Isla, what postpartum life is like, why Danielle feels they should show themselves some grace, why Garrett referred to Danielle as Tom Brady the morning after their Anniversary, and much, much more.
Every week married couple Danielle and Garrett J White share insights and perspectives from within their own lives regarding the following topics discussed each month:
Week 1: Sex
Week 2: Money
Week 3: Parenting
Week 4: Communication
In This Week's Podcast….Sex
Point #1: The Miracle
- Nearly all parents can agree that the first few days and weeks of having a new baby in the house is a huge adjustment for everyone. This one investment has made all the difference and is what Garrett refers to as a life preserver.
- What is it? It's a Snoo. Adds Danielle, "It's a miracle. You zip the baby in so they can't wriggle out of their blanket, and it plays white noise while gently rocking them."
QUESTION
What gadgets have helped you with your newborn?
Point #2: The Meltdown
- Garrett created the "Don't Be a Dick While Your Wife is Pregnant" challenge which he managed to pull off up until he fumbled on the second-yard line. "She's two weeks postpartum and something inside of me snaps. I am obsessed with sex and I get to this angry place."
- Danielle: You did the weird thing that makes a woman feel more guilty. Then I had a postpartum meltdown explosion. I was postpartum, mixed with newborn emotions, and my eyes and forehead were weeping in ways they never had. I bawled my eyes out for an hour with a lot of fuck you's in between.
QUESTION
What did you experience as a couple during the early postpartum days & weeks?
Point #3: The Anniversary
- After their huge blowout, Danielle knew it was time for them to get back on track doing the things that worked for them in their relationship: this podcast, Date Nights, and Sex. She was beginning to feel more like a woman rather than an "Umpa Loompa" as she put on her makeup, pulled up her Spanx, and went out on a date with Garrett. She also realized that they needed to give themselves some grace.
- Garrett: We got back on track sexually, and then we had what I'm going to call the Quantum Night, Quantum standing for four – the Cuatro night. It's in my favorite files. I can put out imagery and live video footage – an hour of it. That was so amazing. That was the best ever!
QUESTION
What was it that brought you back on track sexually after the births of your babies?
Point #4: The Green Light
- Does the woman initiate? Do they wait for the guy to initiate? What can she do to signal that the doors are open? What should he NEVER do if he wants to initiate sex?
- Men, if you're trying to get your wife in the mood and immediately start rubbing or slapping her butt, or go in for the boobs, THAT IS A HUGE TURN OFF! DON'T DO THAT! Instead, come to her and say something like, "Let me rub your shoulders." This works like a charm for most women.
QUESTION
What are the Red Lights and Green Lights inside of your sex life?
Point #5: Sneak Preview

Garrett: WARRIOR GREENS – Kitchen-style documentary on the history of Warrior Greens and how they support the conversation of CORE 4 for both men & women. BECOME A KING Series – The seven Pits and Power moves of married businessmen with children.

Quote of the Week:
"The game was a little rough. My brake pads were completely exhausted, and I was tearing apart my rotors with no brake pads. I didn't realize I had run out of runway. All of my will power and "white-knuckling it" was gone. Something shifted in my brain. The baby's out, the vagina's open for business, why am I still being rejected?"
–Garrett J White
"You gotta be the bigger person, ladies."
–Danielle K White
