Yes please on a part 2!! So much good information in this session. Thank you for being so open and having a live therapy session it showed first hand on how therapy works. So many times it is the unknown of how something works that we don’t try it. This made therapy seem more inviting. Andrew stop cutting yourself short. You can see by Shawn’s reaction that this hurts her because she loves you so much and you are so good. You are a successful and smart person just look around you. Shawn keep loving him thru and he will see all his successes in the many forms they come in some day. Love watching you both!!
Commenting a second time because it just gets better! 💓 this is so GOOD to see. Andrew probably has no idea how amazing of a role model he is to young men out there in this age. So awesome to see.
Ok, so Andrew grabbing Shawn’s hand to hold has me in full on tears 😭💗😭 Such a great episode you guys!!!!!!! And I am in love with the ShrinkChicks now too!!! 🥰 Thank you for sharing your marriage and this episode with us. 🤗🤗
Thank you guys for putting yourselves out there for the betterment of society. This was really helpful to see as someone who has been curious about couples therapy. ❤️
Hey Shawn and Andrew, thoughts on a topic is maybe parenting and couples relationships in blended familes? How to parent with step children and biological children? How to keep our relationship with your partner strong through those hard times? Loved this episode!
I love these women!!!! This is like a conversation with a friend instead of feeling an opinion is being pushed on you! I love the tools they use to help couples! Another great episode of couple things 💕
I absolutely love the topics you share on your podcast, especially the ones that touch on aspects that include the psychological impact on a relationship, like this one. Thank you for being so open and honest. Keep up the good work, Andrew and Shawn! All the best, V P.S. Hope you, Shawn, and the kids are having a wonderful day. 🌞
I nearly teared up while listening so I cant imagine how you both held it together. This was really vulnerable and I think situations that a lot of couples find themselves in but dont talk about. I'm happy she pointed out your body language over voice, that's a sweet moment. I think a lot of traditional training (sports or conditional training like with dogs) says things along the lines of, "if you ignore the behavior you dont want, itll go away, while rewarding the behavior you do want" but I just dont think it works with emotions. Because emotions arent behaviors I guess. It's also interesting to think about unconditional love from a christian perspective. God puts up with a lot of our emotions and is there for us anyway because we're His. Another way us imperfect humans can seek to be more like Him.
I completely love and adore your work and the people you bring into it!! I am already recommending everything to my loved ones and friends. Thank you !!
Loved this podcast! As a therapist, two more common suggestions within relationships (marriages, friendships, family, etc) is 1- remember after naming your emotion that it's both of you against that emotion. Don't leave your spouse on the island of frustration to handle it alone. When you decide to work against that frustration together, your brain can be less reactive to this being a threat against me and instead turn it into how can WE work through this frustration so WE can be happier? Also secondly, when you're arguing and you find your partner isn't "getting it," consider pausing and thinking of your "bottom line" that you want your partner to understand. Too often we get distracted by these outside things like specific examples, outside factors, other issues going on, and by stopping to find the bottom line you can easily communicate that in one sentence, your partner knows exactly what to focus on and "get" and they will be more responsive to that. Can't wait for future podcasts! And hopefully a part 2 (:
Yes ! I think it is so much better to go to bed angry rather than loose sleep or artificially solve an argument when you both are not ready.

Best podcast so far! Thanks for letting us in!
Thank you for this podcast. Very helpful information. I was always told not to go to bed angry, I will definitely think differently now.
That was AWESOME!! Being married almost 31 years, I learned SO MUCH❤️

This was AWESOME! And I love that y'all are so honest. After almost 22 years of marriage, I think my husband and I could use alot of this advice.
This is 100% gold!! I love this so very much! Thank you for engaging in the “therapy” with us listening and learning from you. Un-frickin-believable!

Is there anything she is not “obsessed” about ….can she find another word …maybe broaden her vocabulary…
She's probably not obsessed with your comment....
