943: What My Husband Sees That the Internet Never Will

Drew's back on the mic after a few years, and honestly, I wasn't sure what this conversation would uncover. We've been married for fourteen years, together for half of our lives, and we're standing at this threshold where both girls are finally in school full-time and we're asking ourselves: what do we actually want now?

Not what we're supposed to want. Not what comes next on the achievement timeline. But what lights us up, what grounds us, what makes us feel alive.

Drew never thought he'd be a stay-at-home dad. He definitely never thought he'd be the guy with chickens and a garden and a therapist he calls every week. But here we are, doing the deep work on ourselves both individually and as a couple, figuring out how to lead our marriage differently, how to raise kids who see activism and community service as normal, how to build a life that doesn't require us to be in a constant state of rush.

We talk about intuition as a business superpower, why I'm actually an introvert who hates small talk, what happens when you finally stop performing and start slowing down, and the advice Drew would give to anyone partnered with an ambitious woman. This isn't some polished marriage advice episode. It's two people mid-journey, mid-evolution, learning that the best parts of life are often the simplest ones.

If you've ever wondered what it looks like to build a marriage that doesn't follow traditional roles, if you're trying to figure out how to grow together while also growing individually, or if you're in a season where you're rediscovering who you are outside of your roles, this one's for you.
