In our conversation we discuss three ways that my husband and I do to grow together. Here they are:

Always be sure that you’re able to find the fun, no matter what you are doing.

  • There is always a way to find the silver lining in whatever you are doing.

  • Growing up Rod’s dad always had a plethora of health issues. There were a lot of times that were difficult but when things were good, they needed to make the best out of it.

  • If you’re not cultivating joy, what is the point?

  • Here is what we do to find the fun

    • We always make sure to never take things too seriously and find ways to be silly. Example: A random dance party on a Tuesday!

    • A designated a date night ever single week

    • Creating traditions

Encouraging and cheering each other on

  • When one of us expresses interest in something, the other person encourages that person to take action on it. An example of this was when I mentioned that I wanted to start doing Orange Theory again. Rod then signed us up for a membership right away!

  • A few years back I talked on and on about starting a blog but there was no execution. However, that all changed when Rod gave me my birthday present one year. In a manila envelope was the domain to my website and a Squarespace membership. Without him I may never had executed on my dream of having a blog!

Appreciate each other’s differences

Rod and I are very different people so we have had to take the time to appreciate those difference. Celebrating those differences makes for a thriving relationship.

  • If you want to change something about someone’s personality, you guys are not meant to be together.
