I've had a lot of people ask me about my writing and journaling habits over the last few weeks and I wanted to spend a few minutes talking about why it's a significant part of my life. For me, this isn't a record of my day to day life, it's what helped me during my time in the NFL, a habit that benefits my marriage and has helped me grow as a person.

I was thinking about the beginning of my relationship with my wife and how I was not a good boyfriend at the beginning. To some extent, it wasn't my fault.

I think it's important to reflect on my past and learn from it. Not only does it help me, but maybe it can help some of you too. Music by: Hindz ..read more

Similar to last week's mini episode, I wanted to talk about something that's been going on in my life recently. With a 5 month old, my wife is having to take on a lot of work to care for her and that means not being able to get much sleep.

Again, this is a new format for this podcast, so message me on IG and let me know what you think. I'd love to hear your thoughts or even questions if you have t ..read more

Charlotte and I have talked about infidelity in our relationship quite a few times in this podcast, so we’re not going over that story again. But, we did want to dive deeper into the moment especially from Charlotte’s point of view.

We talk about what she saw while we we were dating that led her to that conclusion, why she said yes when I proposed and how we are now in our marriage. This episode was originally part of ou ..read more

In this episode, Hindz joins me to discuss the need for people to stop trusting their feelings and look at the facts in their relationships in order to truly love your partner. Then, we talk about the unrealistic dating expectations that people have set because of culture and social media. We all don't want the average life, but we can't all expect that our partner is making millions of dollars either! I really enjoyed this conversation and hope you find something insightful to take away from it. This episode was originally part of our YouTube subscription and released in January 2023 ..read more
