Once a week, tell your partner three things you love about them and three things they could have done better. Some people resist this because their partner might cringe, but the bigger question is what's uncomfortable about it. Dave can't name three things he likes about you? That's not a big ask. High-achieving clients like athletes and entrepreneurs struggle with this too because people fear poking at what you love about me or what I'm getting wrong.

James shares a personal story: his mom died 10 years ago after a long battle with cancer. There was much unsaid between them, and he wishes he could apologize for things he got wrong. People avoid temporary discomfort. Love and commitment require courage to give someone the opportunity to hurt you.

James just proposed to his fiancée, as shown in a photo. He seeks advice on not messing it up. The number one reason a woman like her would divorce a great provider and protector is that it's not obvious to everybody.

Approaching a significant subscriber milestone; 69% of listeners haven't subscribed. Hitting subscribe helps the show improve and allows team celebrations.

James is thrilled about the engagement because Steven loves deeply and found his favorite person. > "You're my favorite person." And that person says it back and means it.
