It starts with honesty — first with yourself, then with your partner.Rich explores how connection requires risk, vulnerability, and truth, especially during the holidays when appearances often take center stage. Through the story of Brad and Gwen, he shows how couples can move from sanitized harmony to real intimacy — without blowing things up or losing peace.You’ll learn:- Why partnership begins internally, not externally- How performance quietly erodes connection- Why honesty creates safety, not chaos- How vulnerability builds real peace- What it means to move from appearances to substanceThis conversation applies not just to marriage, but to every partnership — family, business, and beyond.
