Manage episode 509451761 series 3692604
“I’m fifty-five. If I can’t be authentic now, when is that going to happen? I don’t want to go to my grave being inauthentic.” ~ Dina Lantzer
“Temporary, extreme fear while speaking the truth is easier to overcome than perpetual fear of the unspoken truth.” ~ Matt Lantzer
Against all odds, Matt and Dina Lantzer had a marriage that worked. They married young, when Dina was 21 and Matt was 18, but they stuck with each other through thick and thin, raised 3 kids and have 4 grandkids.
After 35 years together, they discovered a painful truth: they had both developed a long standing habit of hiding things from each other, both big and small. In this discovery, they came to realize that their fear of transparency with each other was simultaneously limiting their marriage's potential and smothering their individual joy.
Join me for this nitty gritty conversation on the power of speaking our truth within our most intimate relationships.
