Tim and Jamie are celebrating five years since their first date. With Tim working in a treatment center and Jamie working with at-risk youth, they were each other’s sounding board after a long, hard day. They both describe their relationship as a rollercoaster and an adventure. Fast-forward to today, and they live and work together from home, giving them plenty of opportunity to rub each other the wrong way...or the right way. This past week, they’ve had some issues to navigate, and they're sharing those times with us to maybe pass on some tips and tricks for how they handle differences effectively.

Tim and Jamie have been trying a lot of new things in the name of adventure lately. Jamie says one of the most thrilling things she’s done in a while was cryotherapy. Tim prefers to call it freeze-your-ass-off therapy. It wasn’t just a crazy thing to do, though, it had quite a few health benefits. One being your body goes into fight or flight and, not being able to flee, its first response is to protect your organs. It’s a great clean out for your organs. Jamie says it was exhilarating and had her on a high for hours. Some other recent experiences were foot mapping and eating at The Melting Pot. The moral of the story is to do something new. Don’t fall into the mundane with no excitement. We need unpredictability just as much as we need predictability in relationships.

In this episode of The Fit Marriage Podcast, hosts Tim and Jamie Holloway dive into the art of building appreciation, unity, and intentional connection within a marriage. The conversation opens with a light-hearted mystery, as Jamie chooses the episode’s topic and guides Tim through questions that lead to spontaneous, heartfelt reflections. They explore what it truly means to feel loved and appreciated in a relationship, sharing stories about their daily walks, in-depth conversations, and the importance of being fully present with one another.

Tim and Jamie also discuss their unique life together, working from home and managing their business side by side—a reality that’s rare for most couples. They touch on the delicate balance between togetherness and individuality, highlighting the importance of establishing a united front in all aspects of life, from business to parenting. Through examples from their own relationship and popular culture, such as Sister Wives, they illustrate how prioritizing a spouse can positively influence the family dynamic and bring long-lasting joy and stability to a marriage.

As the episode unfolds, the couple dives into modern parenting dynamics, emphasizing the pitfalls of child-centered parenting. They discuss how over-prioritizing children can lead to burnout and loss of self-identity, both for the parents and the children. With reflections on the importance of boredom, resilience, and self-care, Tim and Jamie encourage parents to model healthy boundaries and self-worth. They remind listeners that while sacrifices for children are natural, it’s essential to maintain a sense of self and foster a balanced family structure.

Tune in for an engaging and thought-provoking conversation that invites couples to rethink their approach to marriage, parenting, and self-care. Whether you’re seeking to build a stronger marriage, connect more deeply with your partner, or balance the demands of family life, this episode of The Fit Marriage Podcast offers insights and inspiration for creating a resilient, joy-filled relationship.
