I'm pleased to celebrate with you on the occasion of publishing our 500th episode of the B.rad podcast!
Since launching in 2018, it's been great fun to connect with those of you who shared email feedback and Q&A, and also a tremendous honor to bring so many amazing guests to you. I've learned so much and been so inspired by these interviews-they have truly been life changing. In deciding what special show to air for the 500th episode, I have to go with the fourth appearance of the one and only Dr. John Gray-the #1 best-selling relationship author of all time with his Mars & Venus franchise (MarsVenus.com).
My first interview with John in January of 2019 was incredible. It was one of his first interviews after losing his longtime partner Bonnie, and was pretty emotional. I was so touched afterward that I spontaneously proposed to Mia Moore the following day-at baggage claim at Burbank airport! He described the ideal partner and I realized, "Hey, what am I waiting for?"
If you haven’t heard John before, get ready for a wild ride on this show. It’s like he has a windup dial on his back and all he needs is a quick question and he goes to town with intensity, focus, and passion. Some of John's notions and instructions might seem controversial, but as I navigate daily life, I realize more and more that he is spot on. Listen to my show "John Gray Essential Male & Female Relationship Assignments" as I recap ways to achieve relationship harmony and rekindle that lost spark.
In this episode, John gives us a very interesting, entertaining and fast-moving master class on how to achieve relationship breakthroughs amidst all the ruts, dysfunction and burnout that we see in today's world. It's easy to take relationships for granted today, as we succumb to the allure of dopamine-triggering instant gratification, and heck, we even have Apps that make it easy to pursue a succession of exciting, short-term relationships instead of the richness of committing to a lifelong partner.
If you’ve been stuck in a mild rut, or want to learn how to avoid one and keep relationship magic alive for decades, John will explain how in this potentially life-changing episode. Hang on for a fantastic ride where John gives you everything you need to succeed in your love relationship. To engage further with John and his teaching partner and daughter Lauren, enroll in an online or live course on his website-Mia Moore and I are attending a John Gray couples weekend later this summer, so maybe you'll want to join us.
