RISE Together Podcast

If you haven’t heard, we had our first monthly live coaching session in January, in both life and business coaching. I had such an amazing experience teaching and connecting with these woman who are bravely working to realize their dreams, and I wanted to share a bit of our talk with you. It’s the most important question I ask myself at the beginning of the year; who do I want to become? I hope you enjoy this sneak peek of our very special series.

When we first started this very podcast, we made a wishlist of guests that changed the way we think about love and relationships. Dr. Gary Chapman was at the very top of that list. Dr. Chapman’s book “The Five Love Languages” has made a tangible and direct impact in our relationship, and we’re believers that Dr. Chapman’s wisdom can result in positive change in almost every relationship. We are incredibly excited and honored to have the author with us to talk about our personal languages, how that impacts our relationship, and some surprising applications for his brilliant work.

On this week's Rise Together podcast, we’re digging into the opinions of other people, and how we dodge or sometimes even positively use the opinions of others. Of course you should take everyone’s opinion with a grain of salt, but no matter how much we say that, it’s never that easy. You may even find it influences some constructive growth in regards to how you’re showing up for the the people you love. Here is how we pick through both the positive and negative things we hear about ourselves every day. Exciting news: Rachel is launching a coaching series!

As the end of the year approaches, we think it’s incredibly important to take stock of the highs and lows you’ve experienced as a couple over the previous 12 months. For us, it’s been one of the most eventful and meaningful years of our collective lives, and unpacking that was extremely insightful. This week, we dig deep into what we learned, what we loved, and what we hope to do better in 2019. Did you know the documentary of our live-event RISE is back in theaters on Jan 2 and Jan 9?

On this week's Rise Together podcast, we're going to talk about the roles and identities we each take on in a relationship and how despite our best intention of how we hope to show up well for our partner, what we think they want may not what they really need. The roles and identities we as individuals in a relationship play evolve over the course of our partnership through stages and seasons of life. In a relationship that's interested in moving forward, letting go of who you are or who you were for who you'll become is something you need to work through and continually embrace, even as you're at times unrecognizable from where you started -- that's growth. Those changes show how a fluid you anticipates the needs of each other at specific times in life and in specific environments that surround you. You'll only be able to show up in a way that makes the most of your collective strengths if you're combining your individual strengths with the individual needs of your partner in a way that's informed by regular, transparent conversation, and that anticipates how life or seasonal changes may require a pivot where you or they take on a new role to create the strongest team.

For the first time ever on the Rise Together podcast, we're having an hour-long conversation about fatherhood -- what does it take to be a good dad in 2018? In a conversation with Larry Hagner, the host of The Dad Edge Podcast, Dave and Larry talk about raising 1,000 kids, how to keep the spark alive with your spouse while doing so, the myths around balance, the debate of giving kids what they want vs what they need and the biggest things they're hoping to impart on their small humans.

In this week's episode, Rachel and Dave surprise each other with the five gifts they're "giving" each other for Christmas this year in one of each of five categories: something the other needs, something the other wants, something the other can wear, something the other can read and something fun for intimacy in the bedroom. Also, this podcast was recorded 8 seconds after Dave and Rachel were arguing for 9 minutes, so it's off the rails in the best way from the first second. In the episode, we mention the Start Today Journals -- there is only one of three covers left, so if you're interested in grabbing the last cover in round two before the next covers arrive in March, hit this link --> https://bit.ly/2FMQ4rU Also, if you listen past the close, Dave sneaks a mention of the encore of the documentary Rachel Hollis Presents Made for More which is back in theaters Jan 2 and Jan 9. It's a rad way to see what a Rise event is like for the price of a movie ticket.

This week on Rise Together we're celebrating Thanksgiving and the incredible feat that in just 5 short months this Rise Together podcast has crossed 5 million listens! Thank you to all of you for being part of our community - we are GRATEFUL for YOU! This week's episode takes us back to the beginning, the first episode, recorded to the chagrin of our audio dude in the front seat of a Mini Cooper, while we were stuck in traffic. Classy. If you're listening in the US, a very Happy Thanksgiving to you! We'll be back next week with an all new episode of Rise Together. If you like this show, we hope you'll tell your friends on social (using the hashtag #risetogetherpodcast), subscribe on the platform of your choice and leave a rating (unless you hate this, in which case, keep that to yourself, Pam)!

The opinions of outsiders can create havoc within a relationship. Just the word "mother-in-law" is likely to bring one or both of you into a heightened state of bickering. In this episode we have selected several excerpts from our live speaking engagements to delve into the mechanics of why opinions affect us and the methods we have used to drop this mental luggage off at the curb. (In the last segment Rachel was literally using luggage on-stage to make an important point.) Enjoy!

Here it is...Our first ever Rise Together attempt at answering some of the ridiculously difficult questions you, our loyal listeners send via email. Since we choose these questions live during recording with no prep time you get to hear us play hot potato with some of your gnarly questions about sex, parenting, being fatigued and more sex questions. Screen cap yourself listening and tag us on instagram @msrachelhollis and @mrdavehollis with your opinion of the new Mail Bag format!

In today's episode Dave takes a solo mission deep into man country and tackles the four things men can't talk about to their partners. Guys whether you like it or not, these issues eventually crop up in every relationship. By learning to boldly identify them they lose their power to derail your marriage. Women, this is like getting a secret map to the very things that might be jamming communications. Dave is transparent and frank, and for that reason we don't recommend playing this podcast around little humans. We hope this episode will unlock freedom in your relationship, like it has in ours.

This week on Rise Together we are joined by Anthony Trucks, a serial entrepreneur, international speaker, gym owner and the only NFL athlete to ever become a finalist on NBC’s American Ninja Warrior. Anthony, an orphan dumped into the foster care system at age 3, has risen above many challenges in his life using the discipline of physical fitness as a vehicle for building self worth and bringing value to family and community. We discuss ways that couples can pursue health regimes together and methods to overcome chronic start again, stop again gym habits.
