Hey Rainmakers! Chelsey and Stephen here, and today’s episode is for anyone who wants to strengthen their relationships—whether you're thriving or struggling. We sat down with relationship experts Stacey and Paul Martino, the creators of Relationship Development and authors of The Missing Piece. Their journey started when their own marriage nearly fell apart, but through trial and transformation, they uncovered a method that has helped thousands of couples turn things around—often with just one partner doing the work.

If you’ve ever felt like you and your spouse are stuck in the same frustrating patterns, or that traditional marriage advice just isn’t working, you’re not alone. Stacey and Paul break down why so much relationship advice today is outdated and how their relationship development methodology flips the script. Instead of both people needing to “meet halfway” or compromise, they explain why one person can create a ripple effect of change in the relationship. And guess what? It actually works.

We also dive into some big (and controversial) topics—like why traditional couples therapy might be doing more harm than good. Stacey and Paul explain how the wrong approach can actually push couples further apart, while equipping just one person with the right skill set can create real, lasting change. They also share why compromise isn’t the key to a healthy relationship (mind-blowing, right?) and how small shifts in communication can break old cycles and bring deeper connection.

This episode is packed with practical insights, powerful mindset shifts, and hope for anyone looking to create a stronger, healthier, and more fulfilling relationship. If you’ve ever felt like you’re doing all the work and your partner isn’t responding—this conversation is for you.

Stacey and Paul’s book The Missing Piece is available now, and it’s full of tools to help transform relationships at any stage. Check it out at MissingPieceBook.com and connect with them at RelationshipDevelopment.org.
