When Philip and I escaped to Tybee Island, little did we know that our new condo's acoustics would become the backdrop for a heart-to-heart on marriage that's as real as it gets. It's not every day you find two lovebirds willing to spill the beans on keeping the fires burning after 18 years, but here we are—juggling humor, honesty, and a dash of warrior spirit. Join us as we wander through the winding paths of partnership, from the profound to the practical (yes, even dishwasher loading strategies make the cut), and how we're tackling the Four Laws of Love with two feet firmly on the ground.

Step into our living room as Philip unpacks insights from his men's group about the trials of marriage and divorce, while I reflect on the steps we've taken to ensure our relationship remains the main event, kids notwithstanding. We're talking full transparency here—the deep dives into communication, the perils of 'agreeing to disagree,' and those pivotal vulnerabilities that turn trust from a buzzword into the bedrock of our bond. And for those wondering about the longevity of love, we share our secrets to dodging the infidelity bullet and keeping the connection as exhilarating as a first date.

So, what's the takeaway from two nearly-two-decade veterans of matrimony, you ask? It's the art of prioritizing one another, the importance of shared happy places (couple's vacations for the win!), and the transformative power of facing conflicts head-on, no holds barred. Tune in for an episode that's less about presenting a flawless love story and more about the grit and grace it takes to carve out a fulfilling journey, together.
