Ep: 057: The #1 Cause of Divorce Today - And How To Avoid It!

Up to 90% of divorces in the US today are initiated by women 🤯 So what's the biggest reason for it? It's not cheating. Not money. Not abuse. It's not what you think. In this episode we unpack WHY marriages drift toward divorce and I am going to give you a framework that I've created to make sure that YOUR marriage doesn't become another statistic. It's called the R.I.S.E. Conversation Ladder™ and it could change everything for you.

In this quick episode, you’ll learn:

• ✅ The 4 rungs of R.I.S.E.™ and how to use them in real life (date night, dinner table, team 1:1s)
• ✅ Why many conflicts feel “perpetual” and how to break the cycle with better conversations
• ✅ Questions that move you from facts → feelings → meaning (the fast lane to connection)
• ✅ How to apply R.I.S.E. to your parenting and your leadership to build trust and loyalty
