Road of Life Podcast Episode 116 Bridge the Transition from "Student" to "Professional" (Without the Family Drama) Do you have a brilliant young adult at home who is a rockstar on paper but totally stuck on how to actually start their life? Are you ready to reclaim your "empty nest" but feel like you're stuck in a loop of misunderstandings with your mini-adults? Meet Minetta Minor. Minetta is the founder and CEO of Guiding Future Success, and she has spent over 30 years mastering the art of recruiting and leadership. She noticed a massive gap: students are working so hard to get the grades that they often forget to build a strategy for the "real world." As marriedpreneurs, we know that when your kids are struggling to launch, that stress doesn't stay in their lane it follows you into your marriage and your business. In this episode, Minetta shares how she acts as the guide to help young adults find fulfillment and professional confidence, so parents can stop being the "bad guy" and start being the supporters. In this episode, we dig right into the power of curiosity, why you should always say "yes" to growth, and exactly how to stay a lifelong learner. In this episode, you’ll learn: The "Strategic Gap": Why a high GPA doesn't automatically equal a job offer and how to bridge the gap between graduation and a career with intentionality. The Power of "Why Not?": Minetta’s journey from a 17-year-old intern to leading a global team of 75 by leaning into curiosity instead of fear. Mediating the Gap: How Minetta acts as a neutral third party to translate between parents who want their kids launched and young adults who feel overwhelmed. Real-Time Coaching: Why she literally walks the floor of job fairs with her clients to role-play and tweak their approach in the moment - the ultimate "boots on the ground" support. The BHAG for 2026: Minetta speaks her "Big, Hairy, Audacious Goal" into existence a one-stop-shop community for young professionals to handle everything from careers to mental health and finances. If you’re ready to help your young adult find their path (and get your house back in the process), this conversation is dropping serious gold. -------------------------------------------------------------------- Road of Life Coaching Resources with Meredith & Craig: Get on the list for book updates so you don’t miss any of the fun: www.200percentmarriage.com/intheloop Pre-order "The 200% Marriage" book (it'll change your life and help us make it a best seller): www.the200percentmarriage.com/preorder Marriage + Business Strategy Session: https://200percentmarriage.com/strategycall Infinite Relationship Mastermind: https://the200percentmarriage.com/irmapplication  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/meredithandcraig/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/meredithandcraig/  ----------------------------------------------------------------- Connect with Minetta: Learn more about Minetta: www.guidingfuturesuccess.com Follow her on Instagram: @guidingfuturesuccessllc  

Road of Life Podcast Episode 115:  Happy New Year! In this episode of the Road of Life podcast, we dive into our personal "Year-End Reflection and Goal Setting" process to help you kick off 2026 with clarity and connection. As marriedpreneurs, we know (from experience) that our business success is tied to our marriage success, and that starts with getting aligned on where you're headed. We discuss why typical New Year’s resolutions usually fail (often by January 17) and offer a more sustainable alternative: Performance-Based Goals. Instead of just focusing on the "outcome" (like hitting a revenue number), we get into how focusing on daily habits and things within your control bypass the usual obstacles like fear of failure and procrastination and builds real momentum. Key highlights include: The "Word & Song" Vibe: How choosing a theme song and a "word of the year" helps set your subconscious energy. Tune in for our words and songs for 2026. Digital Vision Boards: Our hack for keeping goals front-and-center by creating custom phone lock screens that serve as a constant "subconscious jolt." Letters to the Future: The power of writing a letter on New Year’s Eve to your future self, documenting your wins as if they’ve already happened, and the fun and (often) surprise of reading what "past you" prioritized. Holistic Goal Setting: Why it’s critical to set goals across five key areas -Professional, Personal, Relationship, Health/Vitality, and Community – to ensure you don't build a business at the expense of your happiness. -------------------------------------------------------------------- Road of Life Coaching Resources with Meredith & Craig: Get on the list for book updates so you don’t miss any of the fun: www.200percentmarriage.com/intheloop Pre-order "The 200% Marriage" book (it'll change your life and help us make it a best seller): www.the200percentmarriage.com/preorder Marriage + Business Strategy Session: https://200percentmarriage.com/strategycall Infinite Relationship Mastermind: https://the200percentmarriage.com/irmapplication  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/meredithandcraig/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/meredithandcraig/ 

Recency bias is a sneaky little liar. It makes us forget the mountain we climbed in January just because we’re staring at a different one in December. In this episode, we’re going old school - just Mer and Craig - to take you with us on our end of year reflection... which turned into our 2025 recap. We’re pulling back the curtain on the wins (like becoming best-selling authors and launching our Mastermind) and the "bruises" that taught us more than a textbook ever could. We’re diving deep into: The Year of the Book: How writing The 200% Marriage together was the ultimate relationship test (and spoiler: we passed). Choosing Your "Hard": Why being an entrepreneur is a beautiful mess and how resilience became our superpower this year. The "F*ck Yes" Filter: Learning to spot your people and realizing that if it’s not a "F*ck Yes," it’s a "F*ck No." Integrity Recessions: Dealing with the disappointment of others not sharing your values, and how to hold boundaries even when it’s "uncomfortable as f*ck." Vulnerability Hangovers: Craig’s "worst nightmare" stage moment and why speaking from the heart beats a memorized poem every. single. time. Losing Mer’s dad made this year of "firsts" one of our hardest personal years, but it also solidified why we do what we do. Relationships are the only thing that matters in an AI-driven world. Grab a cup of tea (or two if you double fist 'em like Mer does) and join us as we pump our own tires, celebrate the life-changing shifts our clients made, and prep to our hard lessons into an even bigger 2026. Remember: Small hinges swing big doors, but reflection builds the frame. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Road of Life Coaching Resources with Meredith & Craig: Get on the list for book updates so you don’t miss any of the fun: www.200percentmarriage.com/intheloop Pre-order "The 200% Marriage" book (it'll change your life and help us make it a best seller): www.the200percentmarriage.com/preorder Marriage + Business Strategy Session: https://200percentmarriage.com/strategycall Infinite Relationship Mastermind: https://the200percentmarriage.com/irmapplication  Episode 105: Curiosity over Conflict: The Secret Weapon for Marriedpreneurs with Jami & Rocco Montana: https://roadoflifecoaching.com/podcast/b/episode105  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/meredithandcraig/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/meredithandcraig/   

Build a 7-Figure Business Organically (Without Sacrificing Your Marriage) Ever feel like you just don’t have enough time? Like you’re drowning in to-do lists and your big dreams are getting pushed to "someday"? Meet Jose Escobar. Jose didn't just build a 7-figure business in 15 months. He did it organically—no paid ads, no fancy funnels, and no massive tech stack. And he did it all while working a full-time job, raising six kids, and keeping his marriage his number one priority. In this episode, Jose drops some serious gold (and a few hard truths) about what it actually takes to win the day. He shares the pivotal moment his wife, Katie, sat him down for a "hard conversation" that shifted him from a "personal development junkie" into an execution machine. We talk about discipline, the power of community, and why you need to stop finding time and start creating it. In this episode, you’ll learn: The "Nooks and Crannies" Strategy: How Jose creates time to read, learn, and grow while waiting in parking lots and doctor's offices. The Priority Hierarchy: Why Jose ranks his wife above his kids and his business, and how that order actually makes him better at everything else. The Organic Blueprint: How he launched the Connected Leaders Academy and got 100 paid members in 30 days with zero ad spend. Breaking Bad Habits: Why discipline isn't about willpower, but about behavior shifting (and why it takes 66 days, not 21). Dreaming Together: How getting aligned on the vision prevents the "entrepreneurial loneliness" that kills so many dreams. If you’re ready to stop making excuses and start building a life (and business) you love, this episode is a must-listen.   Road of Life Coaching Resources with Meredith & Craig: Get on the list for book updates so you don’t miss any of the fun: www.200percentmarriage/intheloop  Marriage + Business Strategy Session: https://200percentmarriage.com/strategycall  Infinite Relationship Mastermind: https://the200percentmarriage.com/irmapplication  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/meredithandcraig/  LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/meredithandcraig/  Connect with Jose: Website: connectedleadersacademy.com Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/jaesco25 LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/jaesco25/  

Road of Life Podcast Episode 112: In this episode of the Road of Life podcast, we are hanging out with the power couple behind The Co-Author Network, Daniela and Emilio Roman. Their story plays out like a Hollywood movie – but the unrated version where they leave the gritty parts in. We get wildly vulnerable in this conversation. Emilio opens up about his journey from a Marine with a "work hard, play hard" mentality to facing his battle with alcoholism and finding sobriety 17 months ago. Daniela shares the immense grace (and the tough love) it took to stand by his side until he was ready to heal. Tune in to hear us chat about: You Can’t Heal in Secret: Why hiding your struggles is actually selfish (yep, we said it) and how sharing your story can save lives. The "Born to Risk" Movement: How they turned their pain into a platform for other entrepreneurs (including us!) to share their truth. Marriage Mechanics: How their opposite strengths balance each other out without driving each other crazy. If you’ve ever felt like your past mistakes disqualify you from a great future, or if you’re sitting on a story you’re scared to share – this episode is your permission slip to let it out.

Road of Life Podcast Episode 111: What if I told you the secret to a 42-year thriving marriage was having an affair? (Don’t panic - it’s with her husband. I promise.) In this episode, we’re hanging out with the absolute powerhouse that is Margie Dunki-Jacobs. She dropped some bombs that had us picking our jaws up off the floor - including how she and her husband reignited their relationship by pretending they were sneaking around. But that’s just the tip of the iceberg. Margie is the definition of living life on your own terms. She walked away from a 46-year life in Vermont, looked at her husband, and basically said, “I’m going. You coming?” She ditched the corporate ladder, shredded the “go to college, get a good job, die quietly” script, and built a kickass life and business by design.   We dive deep into the good stuff, like: ✨ The Expectation Trap: Why releasing expectations might just be the most liberating thing you do for your love life (and your sanity). ✨ Getting Unstuck: How to stop obsessing over the whole road and just ask, “What’s the next right step?” ✨ The Shared North Star: How to make sure you’re rowing the boat in the same direction, rather than just being roommates who share a Netflix password. This isn’t just a sweet success story. It’s a masterclass in courageous living. Whether you feel like you’re stuck in a rut, or you’re just tired of following everyone else’s rules, Margie’s wisdom is the permission slip you didn’t know you needed. Small hinges swing big doors, and this episode is a massive hinge. P.S. Are you ready to change your relationship?

This week, we're serving up a special episode dedicated to Turkey Talk and the unstoppable, life-changing power of Gratitude. Since we're Canadian (Happy American Thanksgiving, by the way!), we get to double-dip on this fantastic holiday, which naturally makes it one of our favourites! (In Canada, there’s a “u” in favourite). More pie, more football (which the you Americans definitely do better), and two chances to revel in the magic gratitude vibes. We’re even experimenting with brining our turkey this year – HUGE shout out to the hilarious @aryahungry_! 🔑 Takeaway: You Can't Be Grateful and Angry at the Same Time! We share an awesome gratitude hack inspired by a recent podcast interview: You simply can't hold gratitude and frustration/anger/anxiety in your mind simultaneously. If something sh!tty happens (like getting pulled over for speeding), immediately get creative and find a reason - any reason - to be grateful for it. It instantly pulls you out of that negative spiral. ❤️ Our ROL Gratitude List: What We're Thankful For This Year We got vulnerable and shared some of the things we're genuinely stoked about this year. Here’s a peek at what's fueling our fire: Ourselves, Each Other, and Our Relationship We're starting with the source! Grateful for the hard work that allows us to show up as the best versions of ourselves. Our Health and Vitality We're in the best shape of our lives in our mid-40s. Shout out to TFP FIT, their 8-Week Transformation and the incredible community that came with it! We Wrote a Damn Book! Our game-changing relationship guide, The 200% Marriage, is launching in January 2026. Get on the list for updates, behind-the-scenes stories, and all the inappropriate bits that didn't make the final cut (not really - they just didn't flow!)! 🌟 Your Challenge: Get Creative with Gratitude Before you go, we want to know: What are you grateful for? Drop us a comment or just take a few intentional moments today to think about and list all the cool things in your life. Remember, the energy of gratitude is unstoppable, and it will fundamentally change how you experience your whole life. P.S. Ready to change your relationship?

Road of Life Podcast Episode 109 Ready for a shot of pure inspiration? ✨ We sat down with the incredible Robin Carr, of Thrive Unapologetically, to chit-chat about her amazing journey from a high-earning corporate career to finding her true purpose as a motivational speaker and mindset coach.  Robin's transition wasn't all sunshine and rainbows, in fact she gets vulnerable and talks about how it led to the deepest depression of her life. But that low point was the catalyst for the self-work she was meant to do. She shares how she finally started listening to the little voice telling her she was meant for something greater. We bonded over check-in questions as a strategy for connection with your teammate and she shares her go-to check-in question that leaves her feeling truly connected to her husband. Robin dropped this truth bomb, and we had to write it down for you: "Your past does not define you. It prepares you." She beautifully explains that even the "bad things" in her life happened for her, preparing her to serve the people she's meant to serve today.  If you're ready to stop just surviving and start truly thriving (in life, business, and marriage!), you need to listen to this episode. -------------------------------------------------------------- Robin’s Resources: Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TheRobinCarr  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/therobincarr/  Email: robin.a.carr8@gmail.com  --------------------------------------------------------------- Road of Life Coaching Resources with Meredith & Craig: Marriage + Business Strategy Session: https://200percentmarriage.com/strategycall Infinite Relationship Mastermind: https://roadoflifecoaching.com/work-with-us Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/meredithandcraig/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/meredithandcraig/   

Road of Life Podcast Episode 108 From $94K Tax Bomb to Tax Ninja: Sally Gimon's Story of Real Estate, Resilience, and the Secret Trust You know that feeling when the universe decides to hit you with a cosmic baseball bat? Sally Gimon knows it well. In a single month, she dealt with a life-changing car accident (with no gap insurance!), her mother was in the ER receiving last rites, and she was stuck in a job she hated. But instead of crumbling, Sally took action—and found a path to financial freedom through real estate. The biggest shocker on her journey, though? A staggering $94,000 tax bill in 2020 after a killer year of wholesaling properties. That’s where things got really interesting, and Sally became a tax ninja for entrepreneurs. In this episode, we dive deep into Sally's incredible journey of turning personal crisis into powerful success: Arnold Schwarzenegger Did It, So Can You: Sally shares the hilarious and surprising inspiration that made her choose real estate as her vehicle for change (Hint: It involves the Terminator).   The Vibe Check: Sally shares a gold nugget from her Irish mother that became a secret weapon for maintaining a high vibration and overcoming limiting beliefs—all with a simple mirror affirmation.   The Power of Relationship: Sally shares a story about a massive falling out with a real estate mentor/business partner that tested the early days of her relationship with her now-husband, John, and how he proved he was truly on her team.   The Uncomfortable Gift: Her biggest interpersonal challenge ultimately forced her out of her comfort zone and on to bigger success—a true testament to the universe working in your favor.   Just Do It: Sally’s ultimate advice for anyone sitting on the fence is straight from a sneaker commercial. We explore the significance of relationships, the lessons learned from challenges, and the mindset required for success in entrepreneurship - you don't want to miss this episode!     ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Sally Gimon's Resources: www.thetrustisyou.com www.sallygimon.com   ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Road of Life Coaching Resources with Meredith & Craig: Marriage + Business Strategy Session: https://200percentmarriage.com/strategycall Infinite Relationship Mastermind: https://roadoflifecoaching.com/work-with-us Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/meredithandcraig/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/meredithandcraig/ 

Road of Life Podcast Episode 107 Want a marriage that feels as successful as your business? Then you need to start having Weekly Team Meetings with your spouse. We know what you're thinking: "That sounds like the least sexy thing imaginable." We get it! But trust us, getting aligned on the "big rocks" in your life is the foundation for a relationship that feels seen, heard, and deeply connected. In this episode, we're pulling back the curtain on the one intentional practice that has been a game-changer for us and our private coaching clients. We’re sharing exactly what to talk about, how to structure the time, and the most important question you need to ask your partner every single week to feel more loved.   Listen in to discover: 📅 The Must-Cover Agenda: Get aligned on calendars, business stuff, health, personal stuff, family stuff and everything in between to prevent high-emotion, unproductive conversations later.   🏆 Celebrate the Wins: Use this time to look back and appreciate where you showed up as a team and achieved "big wins" in the last week.   🧭 Find Your North Star: Connect on big goals and dreams, and figure out what support you both need to advance the different "buckets" of your life (health, family, business, etc.).   ❤️ The Secret Sauce: The one question that wraps up every meeting and guarantees you’re focused on making each other feel loved.   🚧 The Beginner's Trap: Why these meetings will feel "awkward and uncomfortable" at first, and our simple advice for pushing past the friction so you don't trade "short-term discomfort for long-term dysfunction".   This is about being proactive, not reactive. Dedicate just 60 minutes a week to build empathy, trust, and connection. Stick with it, and in a few months, you'll be blown away at the progress of your team.   Ready to build that foundation?
