Partnership Vision PodcastEpisode 7.1: Sunny Side Up - Why We Need To Be Equally YokedWelcome to part one of our two part episode! In this episode we will be covering the flip side of our previous entry. In the last recording we spoke on a husband and wife being unified as one in everything we do and merging our life together. But now we're going to talk about relationships that CANNOT work like that because they are fundamentally flawed and unable to support either of the partners in their destiny. It's just as important to know what relationships to stay out of or leave as it is to know the right one.2021-08-1841 min
Partnership Vision PodcastEpisode 6: Two Become OneHere is technically the start of our second season of the podcast!

We had a little bit of an issue with Shawn's mic in the recording that we didn't notice until we were in the editing process...so please don't mind the lesser quality on his audio.

In this episode we discuss ways to work together as a united front. Do vision casting, projects, hobbies, and daily tasks together. There's no reason why you can't especially if you're both available. Keep life interesting even through any routines and also keep the "honeymoon phase" alive throughout your whole marriage.
