Today, I’m sharing an exclusive insider into my Thrive Collective. This is a workshop where I invited my best friend, Mari Helart into our Thrive community and we answered some juicy questions about friendship – the kinds of questions you don’t want to ask because it makes you feel like a bad person (WHICH YOU’RE NOT):
- how to navigate disconnection when things feel “off” but you’re not sure anything happened
- how to address conflict if the other says nothing is wrong
- how to speak up about the hard things or tips on addressing conflict - instead of shutting down, staying quiet, or brushing it under the rug
- how do you reach out to people you want to befriend without it feeling super awkward
- when to draw the line between sharing things and putting too much onto the other person listening without them feeling annoyed.
We’re going after it this week! This episode is so good AND it also gives you a glimpse inside our Thrive community. The summer doors are OPEN and you can get your first month free using the code THRIVE TODAY. Head to comealivelifecoaching.com/thrive

Marriage is hard. It’s beautifully rewarding, but having a connected marriage doesn’t just happen. It takes a whole lot of choosing and intentionality between two people who are willing to lay down their lives for the other. We came into marriage with baggage of our own that we had to work through in order to build the marriage we have today. Join us for a two-part episode that we recorded when we spoke at an arts academy for creatives here in town. We get real, raw, and honest about marriage, pain, healing, triggers, and so much more!

Here is a candid conversation about the realities of marriage that not everyone talks about. If you’re single and you want to get married, this episode is for you!

[Archive] Episode 9: We're PREGNANT + The Power of Vulnerability

Well, the title gives it away but YES! We’re pregnant with baby #3! In this week’s episode, Donta and Chantelle talk all about the first trimester, including Mcdonald's cravings, extreme exhaustion, and unpredictable mood swings. They also talk about vulnerability and how powerful it is when we show up in our relationships in such a way that it costs us when we’re open and honest and the beauty it brings to our connections with people.
