Welcome to Episode 100—what a milestone! In this special episode, Kim and Rog step away from their usual format to share a deeply personal story about how their relationship nearly came undone… and how rebuilding it from the ground up led them to this moment: launching a relationship course designed specifically for real couples who want to thrive together.

This is the story behind why they built it, what it took to get here, and how it might just change your life too.

From “We’re Not Working” to “We’re a Team”

Kim and Rog reflect on their 23-year relationship—how they fell in love at 18, coasted through the early years, and then hit a wall around age 28. Back then, they felt more like roommates than a couple. The connection had faded. The fights were repetitive. And the question quietly looming was: “Is this it?”

But they didn’t walk away. They got curious. Why weren’t they working? Why was the love still there, but the connection missing?

So they did what they always do when something matters—they went to work.

Learning Relationship Skills

Over several years, they devoured books, research, and therapy models. Kim brought her counselling studies into the mix. They practiced everything on themselves—messy moments included. And slowly, things shifted. They learned how to:

• Fight without hurting each other
• Repair with kindness and empathy
• Plan life together instead of reacting to it
• Create rituals that reminded them they were a team

And most importantly? They discovered that relationships are built not in the grand gestures, but in the little, everyday moments of connection.

Then Life Changed—Overnight

Just as they felt stronger than ever, their world turned upside down. Their daughter was diagnosed with autism and other complex health needs. The stress was enormous—and the odds were stacked against them. Kim and Rog share that statistically, couples in their position face an 80% chance of divorce.

They had a choice: retreat into survival mode or double down on their relationship. Because they’d done the work—and built the skills—they were able to choose each other. It wasn’t easy. But they made bold decisions, like sharing the care load 50/50, quitting jobs, and building a life based on shared values and radical teamwork.

Why They Built This Course

Over time, people began to ask: “How are you two so strong despite everything?” The answer wasn’t magic—it was skills. Hard-won, practical relationship skills. And they realized something: most couples want what they have, but they don’t know where to start.

Therapy can be expensive. Books can be hard to implement. And not everyone has the time or capacity for a deep dive like they did pre-kids.

So they built what they wish had existed:

A practical, digestible, six-week course for real couples who want real change.
Introducing: The Relationship Playbook

Launching on August 27 2025, The Relationship Playbook is a course designed to give couples the exact tools Kim and Rog used to transform their relationship—delivered in a format that fits busy lives.

Here’s what to expect:

• Short, punchy videos with both Kim and Rog guiding you.
• Easy-to-follow weekly activities that you do together.
• One hour per week is all it takes.
• Tools from Day 1 that actually work in the moment.
• Built on science, tested in real life.

The goal? That you not only learn the skills—you feel the change by the end of the six weeks. Because when you see and feel change, you stay motivated. You build momentum. You become the couple you always wanted to be.

Final Thoughts

Their belief is clear: when your relationship works, everything else in life gets better. You feel supported, seen, emotionally safe. You become more resilient, more joyful, more alive.

You can have the relationship you dream of—not because it’s perfect, but because you learn the skills no one ever taught you.
