EPISODE HIGHLIGHTS WITH STACEY MARTINO:

* [03:37] “I don’t know how to do this.” Stacey Martino, nicknamed “Ice Princess,” had a wake-up call about her relationship when her husband almost left her. So, she dove in to find tools to make it work – and her advice will surprise you.
* [07:18] One person can change the relationship. We’re trained to make relationships “fair” and 50/50. But is that hurting our relationship’s potential? Check if you might be in what Stacey calls “a demand relationship,” and what your (and your partner’s) triggers might be.
* [14:40] A blueprint guide to love. There’s a difference between masculine and feminine energies, and types of people within – and your relationship can get caught in the crosshairs.
* [15:53] Does couple’s counseling work? Stacey Martino has seen a lot of couples trying to work on their marriage and relationship; see what she thinks about couple’s therapy and its effects.
* [18:30] Relationships are like a plant (or a bank account). Stacey and Robyn finish the metaphors, and give some tips on how to work within them.
* [23:32] The number one reason people have relationship problems: You’d be surprised; what you think the reason might be is actually the symptom.
* [26:24] Is it possible to have white-hot passion 20 years into a marriage? (and beyond). Stacey says, “Oh hell yes. Oh my gosh, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes.” It’s a skill set, and you can learn it.
* [34:20] Does every marriage have to last forever? In the wrong mindset and without a toolbox or skill set, marriage has a tough time thriving. Working beyond a marriage into happiness is, however, a possibility – if you learn the tools.
* [36:35] It’s not fair if I have to do all the work. Stacey Martino gives a beautiful, brilliant answer to that statement… including, life isn’t fair, and your desire to seek fairness is actually hurting you more than the results you could be getting.
