In this podcast episode, Joey and Sonja tackle a hot topic that sparks deep conversation. They explore whether men truly desire to lead and whether women are ready to be led. Who should take the initiative in a relationship? Are men hesitant or indifferent about leading women? Are women unwilling to be submissive? How does passivity affect the dynamic of a relationship? Can a strong, independent woman be led, or do men feel intimidated by her independence? Are men opting out of the traditional role of leadership out of fear or do they sense women aren't interested in a traditional man hood dynamic? Buckle up—this discussion gets heated!

It's been said that we are who we attract. Whether that's true or not, we don't know, but what we do know is who we attract and allow into our lives can either push us forward or pull us backwards. With that being the case, it's important to know how to attract "pushers" and not "pullers".
In this episode Joey and Sonja talk about how to attract the people that we want in your lives and how to determine if something we are doing is causing those "right people" to look the other way.

One of the most significant choices a person can make is determining who they will choose to listen to. This is important because our lives will look like the voices that we value the most.
In this episode Joey and Sonja give us the secret to progress in life and in relationships. Coaches carefully and constructively criticize us while cheerleaders congratulate and celebrate us. Both are important but if the two are ever mixed up we can find ourselves living with self imposed limitations.

Having Difficult Conversations
Thursday Mar 25, 2021
Thursday Mar 25, 2021
There are certain conversations that many people dread: the ones in which we have to deliver bad news, discuss a sensitive subject, or talk about a relational dynamic gone wrong.
The mere thought of having these difficult conversations fills some people with anxiety while for others its seen as an effective time for clarity and growth. We get it, Sometimes difficult conversations are tough to have because nobody wants to play the bad guy, and or have the situation to blow up in their face. As much as it’s tempting, you don’t want to just avoid the whole mess, either.
Every relationship in life stands to call for a difficult conversation at some point or another.
In this episode, Joey and Sonja talk about the importance of having healthy and helpful and sometimes hard conversations.
