From "Never Again" to "I Do": Our Relationship Healing Journey
Just days before their wedding, Joree and John sit down to reflect on how they transformed their insecure attachment - hers anxious, his avoidant - into a secure partnership. They share what it looked like to move from fear and defensiveness to trust and safety, and why the work of healing old wounds is the foundation for a lasting relationship. In this heartfelt conversation, John and Joree open up about what each of them had to face within themselves: John's struggle with shame and defensiveness, Joree's fear of losing independence, and how those patterns used to collide. They also talk about the turning points that transformed their relationship, such as the courage to look inward, the commitment to repair quickly, and the practice of listening without defensiveness. Along the way, they explore the deeper meaning of emotional safety that allows for the ability to be fully seen, to bring anything to your partner without fear of rejection, and to believe in one another's good intentions. You'll also hear a fascinating new finding about early friendships shaping adult attachment, why putting the "us" first (per Terry Real) creates two stronger individuals, and how trust and transparency (including access to each other's phone) becomes a non-issue when safety is real. If you've ever wondered whether anxious/avoidant pairs can become secure, this is your playbook, equal parts science, story, and skills.

Finding a Psychologically Rich Life…in Portugal!
In this intimate, story-driven episode, Joree and John explore three complementary paths to a good life: pleasure (hedonic happiness), purpose (meaning), and the often-overlooked third path: psychological richness. Drawing on positive psychology research from Dr. Shigehiro Oishi's "Life in Three Dimensions," they unpack how novelty, challenge, and perspective shifts can transform not only your mood, but your worldview. You'll hear the mindset shifts behind their next big leap - relocating to Portugal - and how they moved from what was "pushing" them (escaping comfort and routine) to what was "pulling" them (following intuitive breadcrumbs, synchronicity, and community). They explore further what it means to be stuck on the hedonic treadmill, and how gratitude and savoring can interrupt it; why meaning without balance can narrow your life; and simple ways to diversify your daily experiences so you're changed by the way you choose to live. This episode blends candid storytelling including wrong turns, roundabouts, and serendipity, science-backed tools in areas of mindfulness, values, strengths, and relationship wisdom. If you've been craving more aliveness, adventure, and connection in your life, consider this your invitation to design a psychologically rich one.

Dating Post-Divorce Part 2: Green Flags to Look For
In this episode of Love Isn’t Enough, Joree and John continue sharing the dating advice they followed in their own journey, along with the tips they give their clients on how to find - and maintain - the love you’re looking for. While some of this episode is for those dating later in life, and specifically for those who are divorced, much of what they share will apply to anyone in the dating world. They talk about what green flags to look for, how to set up an authentic dating profile, how to not get attached too quickly to someone you just met, ways to ensure safety, and most importantly, being aware of the healing work you need to do prior to getting into a relationship and how to vet out someone to see if they have done their work; this is a key foundation for building a secure attachment. One tricky area for people newly dating is how to talk about sex - if you’re sleeping with others, STI’s or STD’s, and what your boundaries are; these topics can feel especially vulnerable in a new relationship, and yet it’s very necessary! Lastly, tune in to hear the #1 thing you need to know about yourself when out in the dating world. If you’re ready to attract the partner of your dreams, this episode is for you.
