Love me a good Tuesday!

I started listening to this podcast shortly after Covid. I’ve learned so much and have applied many of the things I learned to my relationship. The biggest thing for me was a mindset adjustment. Learning to see the good before the bad and assuming good intentions over malicious attacks.
I look forward to each Tuesday.

The best relationship podcast 🫶🏼

Zach and Laura are not only insightful and educational when it comes to relationships, but they’re also FUN! I truly look forward to listening to your new episodes every Tuesday and what I can take away and apply to my own relationship! Thank you both so much 💙

So enriching and relatable

Long time listener, Laura and Zach are so relatable. I love the gottman method and L & Z’s approach to all types of relationship topics. Also - Laura - so inspired by you running that marathon in 2024. Zach - let’s execute on the listener sponsorship for Laura’s marathon!! We’re here for it. And you guys…because you’re here for - and HELP - so many people. 🩵
