Tune in as we share all about dreaming together!

Every relationship has conflict - it is universal + inevitable! But what sparks the most conflict in your relationship? Is it stress, lack of time together, money, hard days at work or with the kids? (Speaking honestly: for us, it is often when we overestimate our capacity and take on too much!)
The good news is that there are SO MANY ways you can help prevent conflict, healthily work through it, AND learn from it. The idea isn’t to get rid of conflict, but to use it to strengthen your relationship.

Memories of Us has launched - and just in time for Valentines Day! We believe this journal will carry great weight and impact, beyond your marriage + for generations of your family to come. To celebrate Memories of Us launching, we are diving into why making memories + marking moments is SO important to us and how you can cultivate this in your relationship too. We love what Corrie Ten Boom brilliantly says, “Memories are the key not to the past, but to the future.”
Beyond making memories, we love to “lock it in.” This is our way of creating a mental tattoo of important moments to us; moments of celebration, loss, disappointment, or even just the little daily moments of discovery, connection, or breakthrough. It has become part of our marriage culture and we hope to encourage you to find your own way to integrate this into your relationship too!

We are SO excited for today’s episode because we are covering a lot of ground!
First, we are going to tackle a fear floating around our world today when it comes to relationships: the fear of being cheesy. And how that fear holds us back from pursuing creativity in our love stories.
We are also going to play a fun game that involves YOU guys! We asked you on Instagram to share some statements/assumptions about us, and we are going to answer those.
A lot of those questions had to do with the farm. And we have been processing this all summer + are finally ready to share an update with you. While it won’t answer all your questions, we know that it will bring enough clarity as we share our hearts.
And finally, we are going to talk about roles in our relationship (something you all have been asking more and more!)
So grab a cup of coffee, sit fireside, and let’s dive in!

If you know us, you know that we THRIVE off of adventure + spontaneity! Sure, we need routine, but we also need newness. It is about finding that balance, stepping out of your comfort zone, and saying yes to moments along the journey.
Adventures make good stories and they teach you so much about who you are, who someone else is, and how your relationship responds to life and situations.
Our world today has over complicated and over saturated the truest form of adventure. We are constantly comparing our life to someone else’s and thinking we have to have the picture perfect adventure in order for it to be worth it. But that is not true at all!
The muscle of adventure is there. It just takes flexing + creativity to unlock it. And once you do, it is well worth it!

Communication is the most crucial component in marriage. It can strengthen, heal and acknowledge your commitment to grow your relationship.
We live in a fast paced, convenient world that does not value the power of writing things down or communicating well. And one of the biggest things that come against healthy (+ creative) communication is social media. If not harnessed and wrangled, social media will rob you of your love story.
Communication isn’t just a big conversation once a night before you go to bed. It can happen in creative ways throughout your day. Affirmations, sticky notes, letters - all of that. They are powerful! All it takes is a bunch of words strung together to build a beautiful story. There are little things you can do everyday that have weight + make such a big impact in your relationship. We hope this episode motivates you to do the small, simple, attainable things that come with big rewards.

These 12 Biblical Truths are essential to every person’s life. Let’s dig some roots in this season; roots that will hold steady and strong as we continue to journey through life.

After a ton of prayer, endless hours of conversation, and plenty of tears, Jeremy + Audrey have decided to close the shop, Always More. If you have been following Audrey for a while, you know how difficult it was for her to make this decision.
These words, inspired by Ephesians 3:20, are a reminder to ALWAYS believe in the MORE that is within, through Christ. Over the past 15 years, ALWAYS MORE has not only been a life mantra for Audrey, but it has also become a community, a clothing line, and a source of hope, inspiration, and encouragement to women around the world. There are countless stories about how ALWAYS MORE has helped so many people through loss, heartbreaking diagnosis’s, mental illness, miscarriages, becoming a mom, athletics, starting a business, or pursuing a dream. More than they ever imagined!
We hope the shop closing doesn’t stop the ALWAYS MORE message continue to spread. The beautiful thing about encouragement is that it’s free to give, but it could be of infinite worth to the person receiving it. And that’s what we hope ALWAYS MORE will always be. #alwaysmore

Are you living the kind of story you would want read back to you one day? In other words, if someone were to read your life, would you like the story?
We are big on living with intention and purpose. From our relationship, what we eat, the products we use in our everyday life, our time, how we decorate our home, and everything in between.
You have to be aware in order to be purposeful. And to get to that place, you have to establish rhythms and routines that support what intentionality looks like for you.
We are constantly looking for ways to live more intentional and in this episode we are sharing some of the things that have deeply impacted our lives lately.

We have been loving this season on the podcast and one of the biggest conversations we are continuing to have is around the idea of rest and slowing down. Emily Ley justs released her 3rd book, When Less Is More, after a season of redefining what “the good life” meant to her.
Her book was written from the trenches where she felt deep burn out even though a lot of good things were going on. She was saying yes to everything and soon her life and company became more complicated - coming against her foundational message of simplified. She felt really disconnected and far from herself.

If you have been listening to the podcast for a while then you know we are all about rhythms. We believe they're foundational and they bring balance and stability to anything in life!
Today we are joined by Gabe and Rebekah Lyons - fellow lovers of creating rhythms, slowing down, and taking inventory of their life. And with 22 years of marriage, 4 kids, a full career, and a thriving ministry they have learned that it is never too late to establish what you want your life to be about. We encourage you to lean into the wisdom they share in this episode!

A few weeks ago we went to visit our friends Brian and Mary Heffernan of Five Mary's Farms! Wow! What an experience it was! From being on the ranch, sleeping in cabins, enjoying amazing farm to table food, and having even better conversation. The whole trip reminded us of the dreams in our hearts!
Brian + Mary have been together for 14 years and have 4 beautiful little girls. They left a busy, corporate life in Silicon Valley to pursue a life of ranching and raising children in a rural small town. They have rediscovered success and are on the narrow road toward their dreams. They are big dreamers who are not afraid of taking action on their dreams!
Their unique story is inspiring and resonates with our definition of success and life so much! We are really excited to share this conversation with you!

We are so excited to have our good friends Ryan + Danielle Walker on the show today! They're the true picture of "for better or worse, in sickness and health," so commonly heard in wedding vows. And through each season they've walked, their marriage has only grown stronger.
Danielle is a New York Times Best-Selling Author to several cookbooks, all which came from overcoming her sickness through changing her what she eats. And Ryan is a brilliant tech-guy who has created several apps that build connection and growth for businesses on social media.
This episode is all about how walking through an autoimmune diagnosis and losing a child has only made them stronger, individually and as a couple. This is a transparent conversation packed with incredible wisdom!
PS - we also have this incredible conversation around technology and how we strive to stay present when the phone and social media are major distractions.

It's the final episode in our friendship series and it's been so fun having our friends on the show to discuss community and lifelong friendship! Today we are talking about the difference between community and friends - which comes down to love drenched accountability. Community goes beyond catching up, just hanging out, and showing up for the big moments. It is about committing to every moment, leaning into growth, and being a constant stance of love and support for your friends (both in good and hard times). Community is a beautiful and biblical thing that we hope you experience!

During our book tour, we had the honor of sitting down with Annie Downs for her podcast (#ThatSoundsFun). It was such a good conversation so we asked Annie if we could share it on our podcast and of course, she said yes!

Jennifer + Aaron Smith have been married for 12 years, have 4 children and are fellow Oregon-friends who just released their second book, Marriage After God.
Marriage After God isn't just a message, it is a movement. It is saying YES to what God wants FOR your marriage and FROM it. It is realizing the part your marriage plays in the big picture and going after it with everything you've got. It's saying yes to what God has given you and not comparing your marriage to what God has given someone else's marriage. And it is dreaming together, in oneness, as your marriage pursues the heart of God.

Even though our wedding day was filmed for the TV show and documented in our book, there are some things we have never shared before! But that is all changing today because we are taking you behind the scenes to the unseen and unwritten moments of our wedding day.

Reality is: if you can fall in love, you can fall out of love. Sometimes it happens by choice and sometimes through situations. But, we can all work to protect our relationship. In this episode we talk about how we do that through boundaries, rhythms, and prayer. Just know that your relationship will evolve, you will evolve, and so will your boundaries, rhythms and the way you pray with your spouse. Enjoy the journey and above all else, protect your love story - because it is beautiful!

These two are probably the funniest people we know! They truly live out their life motto: Laughter Is The Best Medicine (no really, they travel the world making people laugh!). But beyond the laughter, they have an amazing story of overcoming co-dependency in their relationship and how they climbed out of that cycle. This is a very raw and beautiful conversation. And we know you will find hope, encouragement, and laugh a little as you listen in.

It's Enneagram Week! We're going further Behind The Scenes of the Enneagram, specifically eights and nines. Also, we are going in depth, and taking a deep dive, on the Enneagram itself. We talk a lot about the aspects of the Enneagram. If you've got the one on one of the Enneagram down, but you're interested in learning more about it, this episode is for you. We are sharing our conversation with Suzanne Stabile, the Enneagram Queen. We got to go and sit down and have an amazing conversation with her in Dallas, while we were on our book tour.

Today's episode is another audiobook reading! We hope you guys are enjoying these. In this episode, we share about fighting the purity battle and how we struggled with it. This was probably one of the hardest chapters we had to write, but it has prompted a lot of great conversation from all of you! Culture has overvalued the wedding day and undervalued the promise of forever within marriage, in the same way, they have overvalued virginity and undervalued purity. So we unpack what purity looks like to us and how we should refocus our energy on fighting the purity battle and not just the virginity battle.

Today we are talking with John Mark Comer! Few people have had more of shaping and influence in our life and our spiritual development. Whether it's his podcast from Bridgetown Church, actually going to his church, or his books, we have learned so much from him. Jeremy and I actually met at his church, 9 years ago. It was the first ever service of their downtown campus in downtown Portland. Today we talk with him about marriage, relationships, and God's design for all of it.

More audiobook readings! We are reading from the chapter titled A Creative Type of Love. This is our favorite chapter! I know we said last week that the Principle of Sharing was our favorite, but this truly is our favorite. We share stories from when we were dating about how we chose to PURSUE CREATIVELY. DATE INTENTIONALLY. LOVE FAITHFULLY. This is essentially where our "Love Letter Life" began; in the typewriter letters, long distance dating, and desire to do things differently. We hope you enjoy listening to these audiobook readings.

Today we are sitting down and talking with Jeremy and Jinger Vuolo. If you recognize those names that because they are on the TLC show "Counting On" and Jinger grew up on the show, "19 Kids and Counting." We get to dive into the Vuolo's love story and how they prepared more for their marriage than their wedding day and being newlyweds like ourselves. We talk about what they're doing to be intentional and how they protected their purity, and how they're pursuing oneness, and the early stages of having a baby. So we get to hear all their thoughts on that and ultimately what they are doing to pursue a love letter life. It's a really fun conversation. We think you guys are going to love it!

In this episode, we are sharing more of our new book, A Love Letter Life! This is probably one of our favorite chapters in the book. It talks about a love story that helped shape our love story. And within that story, there is a principle that we loved and chose to be intentional with it. We are talking about the principle of sharing. The idea of sharing your life with someone else and striving towards oneness. Loving what they love, and allowing yourselves to build thousands of strands of oneness and togetherness. There is plenty more to get from this episode so make you listen!

For this week's episode, we are so excited because we are sitting down to interview the couple who has probably had the biggest impact on our love story in our marriage today. Chris and Jamie Herb.
Jamie was Audrey's college mentor and Chris was the Area Director for Young Life when Audrey was in college. Chris and Jamie had a huge impact on Audrey's college experience. When Audrey started dating Jeremy, and they got engaged, they asked Chris and Jamie if they would do the premarital counseling. They inspired the Marriage Journal. They inspired so much of our book, A Love Letter Life, which is available everywhere now! They were huge supporters of Jeremy and Audrey in their relationship leading up to their wedding day and to this very day as well. And also just huge supporters of them in the writing of A Love Letter Life and Beating 50 Percent and all the other things that they do. We hope that you receive something amazing from this interview because it is full of gold!

We have another sneak peak into our book that just released, A Love Letter Life. This one is the first chapter, which is titled A Patient Pursuit. It's all about our time of friendship; from when we first started hanging out. We discuss how we continued to prepare ourselves as individuals for the eventual day that we would be married. And then also just what it looked like for Jeremy to bravely and persistently pursue Audrey. During this time, we spent lots of time around community and other friends and just learning more about each other.

It's book launch day!!! A very big part of the reason why we wrote A Love Letter Life, was that we felt very strongly, when we were engaged, that we wanted to be more intentional about preparing for our marriage than preparing for our wedding day. It's something that our culture as a whole, especially our generation, has lost sight of. We spend all this time planning this epic wedding day, but then forget to prepare for an epic marriage. That's something that we are really passionate about. So we are going to share six things with you that found super helpful during our engagement that helped us prepare for our marriage. Hopefully they will help you in whichever walk of life you are currently in.

Christmas is just a few weeks away and we thought it would be fun to give you a Behind The Scenes insight into what Christmas looks like and means to us. This time of the year can be overwhelming and distract our focus from the thing that matters most: Emmanuel - God with us. But we hope that you feel inspired (and find laughter!) as we share Christmas memories as well as some of our Christmas traditions and favorite holiday things with you!

The Marriage Journal is something we committed to during our first year of marriage and it has been such a useful tool that has pushed us to connect, reconcile, and grow in our communication. We are really going Behind the Scenes in this episode as we share some of our own marriage journal entries with you (holding nothing back!) from our first few weeks of marriage and from a few weeks ago.

In this episode we share the insanity that we endured during our first week of married life. We’ve never told this story before and we think you’ll laugh and hopefully be encouraged if you are going through a not-so-glamorous time or trial. If you’re feeling disappointed or frustrated, we hope this episode reminds you that hard circumstances don’t have to dictate the health of your relationship.

After 14 years over 300 episodes and 17 seasons I made the decision to leave Little People Big World. It was an amazing run and played such a huge part of my life. I would do it all over again, which I believe sums up my feelings about it pretty well. However, there are seasons for everything and in this next season, Audrey and I want to shift our focus. We want to focus on our calling, not just our comfort. In this episode, we dive into why I decided to leave LPBW.

People say, if you can survive a home renovation, then you can survive anything. We survived two home renovations in six months! Not to mention, one of those renovations took place while Audrey was seven months pregnant and the other when Ember was only one month old. Through the renovation we learned a lot, the hard way! We are taking your behind the scenes into our home renovation process, both the intentional renovation and the unintentional second renovation that was thrown our way. We're going to talk about how we did it, what went wrong, what we did wrong, what we're so glad we did, and share some tips and tricks that we learned along the way. We hope this is helpful to you and makes you laugh a little!

Welcome to the Behind the Scenes Podcast where we share the messy, honest, unfiltered and not so curated parts of our life. You will learn the reality behind our social media feeds, business, ministries, and what you may have seen on tv as we get honest and open about relationships, family, faith, business, and whatever we are learning about, fighting about, or laughing about lately. But you won’t just hear from us! We are sitting down with the people who inspire us most as they share the behind the scenes reality of their lives.
We hope each episode will feel like an invitation to our dinner table or a conversation around a campfire. Think of this podcast as a bunch of bloopers with some truth bombs sprinkled throughout! Ultimately, we believe that your behind the scenes is more inspiring than your highlight real. And we are excited to go behind the scenes with you!
