The Farrows

The podcast for modern couples who want real connection that lasts.

Hosted by relationship and family coach Nichole Farrow and her husband Ben, this show is for couples trying to stay close while raising kids, building careers, and handling the stress of everyday life. Each week, they unpack the real issues behind modern relationships—intimacy, emotional connection, mental load, conflict, communication, and the quiet resentments no one talks about.

With a mix of expert insight and raw honesty, Nichole and Ben give you practical tools to strengthen your relationship, raise emotionally secure kids, and create a life you both actually want. Because working on your relationship isn’t just for when things go wrong—it’s a lifestyle choice that impacts everything. Research shows couples who invest in their connection are 6x more successful and live 4 years longer.

If you’re ready to break generational cycles, ditch the surface-level advice, and do the real work of love—this is your podcast.

Talk to Nichole and Ben.

You love each other. You share a life, maybe a mortgage, probably kids... but lately it feels like your relationship has turned into a never-ending to-do list.

In this episode, Nichole and Ben are talking about the invisible weight so many long-term partners carry—the mental load. From meal planning to dentist appointments to remembering every single birthday card, one partner often becomes the default “manager” of the household. And that imbalance doesn’t just cause exhaustion—it kills intimacy and breeds quiet resentment.

Research shows that mothers take on over 70% of the mental load, even in homes where both parents work full time. That’s not just unfair—it’s unsustainable.

Nichole breaks down what the mental load actually is, how it slowly shifts your relationship dynamic, and what couples can do to rebalance the emotional labour and reconnect as equals—not co-workers.

If you’ve ever thought, “We’re fine... but I’m exhausted”—this episode is for you.

Talk to Nichole and Ben.

What happens when the life you thought you'd have falls apart—and you have to rebuild it in front of an audience of millions?

In this episode, Nichole and Ben sit down with actor, comedian, and viral sensation Dan Lawrence for a raw and hilarious conversation about heartbreak, fatherhood, and finding your way again. Dan opens up about the breakdown of his marriage, the realities of co-parenting, and how he’s used humour to process pain and connect with others who feel just as lost.

They dive into men’s mental health, why so many men struggle to ask for help, and how Dan’s vulnerability has become his greatest strength. From dating app disasters (including being catfished) to his unexpected rise on social media, this is a conversation about starting over, staying soft, and finding light even when things feel heavy.

If you've ever had to put yourself back together after losing something big—this one will hit home.

And yes... we also talk celebrity hall passes, Tom Hardy, and Dan’s very honest thoughts on Love Is Blind.

Talk to Nichole and Ben.

Men’s mental health often goes unspoken—especially when it’s tied to something most people don’t even know exists: andropause, or age-related testosterone decline.

In this powerful episode, Nichole and Ben sit down with Bertie and Sheldon, co-founders of DNA Hormonal Health, to talk about what really happens when men’s hormones shift—and how it impacts everything from mood and motivation to relationships and identity.

Sheldon shares his personal journey of hitting a wall in his 40s, losing confidence, struggling mentally, and searching for a solution that didn’t involve synthetic hormone treatments. Together with Bertie, a naturopathic nutritionist (and his wife), they created a natural path forward—and a movement to support other men in doing the same.

This is a conversation about men’s wellness, emotional health, and the invisible pressure so many are carrying in silence. It's also about the power of shared purpose—and how building something together made their marriage stronger.

If you or your partner have felt flat, frustrated, or not quite like yourself lately... this episode is your reminder: you’re not broken, and you’re not alone.

Talk to Nichole and Ben.

We used to get married for survival, security, or social status. Now, we expect our partner to be our best friend, lover, co-parent, therapist, financial teammate—and somehow keep it passionate too.

In this episode, Nichole and Ben unpack the unspoken pressure of modern relationships. They explore how marriage has changed over the years—from a practical arrangement to an all-encompassing emotional partnership—and ask the question many couples are quietly wondering: Are we asking too much from one person?

They talk about the impact of shifting gender roles, the rise in female-led divorces, and how longer life expectancy has made “forever” feel even more overwhelming. They also share what happens when you’re both stretched thin by work, parenting, and personal growth—and how to find your way back to each other when it feels like no one has anything left to give.

If you’ve ever felt like your marriage is good on paper but hard in practice—this episode will help you understand why. And what you can do about it.

Talk to Nichole and Ben.

What happens when the people who raised you struggle to respect how you’re raising your kids? Or when they’re not involved at all, and you’re left doing it all on your own?

In this episode, we talk about the changing role of grandparents—and what that means for families today. From clashing parenting styles to emotional overreach to complete absence, this conversation gets to the heart of a dynamic that’s often brushed aside but deeply felt.

If you're a parent feeling unsupported, a grandparent unsure of your place, or navigating complicated family ties—you’re not alone. Nichole and Ben unpack the guilt, resentment, and hope that can come with these relationships and offer a grounded, compassionate look at how we move forward.

Because family is messy. But you don’t have to figure it out by yourself.

Talk to Nichole and Ben.

Marriage today looks nothing like it did for our parents—and yet we’re still holding ourselves to outdated expectations that don’t fit real life.

In this episode, Nichole and Ben talk honestly about why modern marriages are struggling more than ever. From shifting gender roles to the constant stress of parenting, career demands, financial pressure, and the mental load—this is the stuff that slowly chips away at connection, even when you love each other.

They unpack the real reasons relationships fall apart (it’s not just infidelity), why conflict isn’t always the problem—and what couples actually need to feel safe, seen, and supported in 2024.

If you’re feeling like your marriage is more survival than connection lately, you’re not alone. This conversation is the permission slip and the perspective shift most couples never get.

Talk to Nichole and Ben.

This past year was big—for our marriage, our work, and our personal lives. We set boundaries. We lost people. We redefined what matters. And as hard as it was, it’s also been the beginning of something really important.

In this episode, we’re sharing the highs and heartbreaks of 2024—including the messy parts no one talks about. From walking away from unhealthy relationships to working together as a couple and launching a mission we truly believe in—we’re reflecting on the growth, the lessons, and the intentional choices we’re making as we move into 2025.

If you’ve been carrying heaviness from the past, questioning your relationships, or feeling stuck in old patterns—this is your invitation to reset.

We’re also kicking off the year with our New Year Relationship Challenge—designed to help you break cycles, reset your connection, and bring more peace into your home. This isn’t about being perfect. It’s about being honest, brave, and ready to do things differently.

Talk to Nichole and Ben.

Rebecca Wooldridge—known online as Mumma of Triplets and a Bro—isn’t just sharing her life to go viral. She’s sharing it because she’s lived through the kind of pain and triumph that can change you forever.

In this episode, Nichole and Ben sit down with Rebecca to talk about her decade-long fertility journey, the trauma of giving birth to triplets at just 29 weeks, and how she’s navigated life with four young children, PTSD, and the unexpected rollercoaster of social media attention.

This is a conversation about resilience, about what it really takes to show up every day when you’re still healing, and about the kind of strength that’s built when support systems show up—like Home-Start did for her. Rebecca opens up about the judgment that comes with visibility, how she manages trolls and transparency online, and what helps her keep going when parenting feels impossibly heavy.

If you’ve ever felt unseen in your struggle, or wondered how anyone balances motherhood, mental health, and marriage—this episode will make you feel a little less alone.

Talk to Nichole and Ben.

In a world shaped by constant innovation, how do we lead with intention—and live in a way we’d be proud to leave behind?

In this episode, Nichole and Ben sit down with Ve Dewey—design leader, innovator, and global voice in inclusive leadership and AI—to talk about the future of work, family, and how we show up for what matters most. From her years leading at companies like Mattel and Adobe, Ve shares what she’s learned about building meaningful careers and communities in a digital world that doesn’t slow down.

They explore what it means to be a good ancestor—not just in terms of sustainability or impact, but in how we love, lead, and pass down values in an increasingly disconnected world. The conversation spans the promise (and pressure) of AI, remote work, and why inclusive design is the future of leadership.

This episode is for anyone thinking beyond the next deadline. It’s for those asking bigger questions about the kind of life—and legacy—they want to leave behind.

In a world that’s constantly online, how do we create real connection? And what if prioritising joy, mental health, and sexual wellness could change the way we live, love, and lead?

In this episode, Nichole and Ben sit down with Claire Mongeau—investor, founder, and the visionary behind The Second Coming—to talk about what it means to thrive in the digital age. From building inclusive communities to redefining sexual equality, Claire shares what she’s learned from her work in healthtech, femtech, and mental wellness—and how it all starts with connection.

They explore what it means to feel well (emotionally, mentally, sexually), how technology is both helping and harming our relationships, and why now, more than ever, we need spaces that honour authenticity, vulnerability, and joy.

This isn’t just a conversation about sex, tech, or wellness—it’s about what makes us human. And how we build lives that actually feel good.

Plus: Hear how Claire’s latest project, The Second Coming, is creating safe, empowering spaces to talk about intimacy without shame.
