answering vulnerable questions

[@Localcollaborative]

14:09 the resentment question. Oof. That hit hard. My husband is active duty Army SF. I have turned down job offers, started my own business and feel like I am constantly in second place to such a demanding job. They are selfless men with selfish jobs and it’s so easy for the spouse to feel forgotten or left behind. We are approaching 10 years of marriage and often repeat the argument that I show resentment toward my husband because of missed potential, opportunities, bringing in a paycheck, etc. It is the strangest joy to be home with my family and fulfilling life meets self-esteem roller coaster. A hugely hidden piece of the military lifestyle I’m trying to bring more attention to. ❤

1000% agree on Shawn striving all her successes with humility, that is something that is beautiful, rare and attractive!

[@jerolynmcintyre5431]

Don’t apologize for being yourselves. I love watching and just listening to y,all. It relaxes me and I’m a fun 76 y/o lady. lol. Lol

[@Kim-iloveeeyore]

Andrew definitely could see the shift in emotion after talking about your dad. Those feelings are still so there, hugs to you.

[@kellyhause8313]

You two are so authentically yourselves that it's an absolute joy to watch and listen to you ❤️

[@dreamingmusicgal]

Y'all openness and honesty about your life in the dark time, kids to what Andrew loves to call it sexy time needs to be bottled and sold. So many hide it and can be ashamed/embarrassed to talk about it. Thank you for hopefully helping some know it's normal and ok to talk openly about all these normal adult topics. Blessings!

[@maryfrank-oj5km]

Watching you both interact is pure joy! Amazing, amazing couple in every sense of the wood. Shawn, you look particularly beautiful today, love your outfit!

[@ashleydvorak8207]

I LOVE your explanation of resentment, Shawn! Thank you so much!

[@williamsonfamilyadventure]

My husband and I have ready the Ruthless Elimination of Hurry as well as To Hell with Hustle and (I would highly recommend) The frantic family. It has changed our lives for the better, we have little kids your kids same ages and adding in a Sabbath and being intentional about our family goals and rallying call has been game changing! Great Job!

[@gymflip]

I enjoy listening to you both. You both have great perspectives, and your ideals seem to merge with ease. Keep on keeping on!

[@rebeccahorn8418]

Sometimes you need to forgive over and over until it really happens. Talk to God about it as soon as the resentment starts to slip back in.

[@Livinthedream3]

So true; I also start by saying it out loud, and I start to feel it

Andrew matching the set

[@kimdrury6184]

That's the best that your playful and honest and fun all around. Life's to short!!! Love her books Andrew...my husband is the same and we're in our late 50s. Your kids are wonderful and enjoy watching the EAST fam!!!! ♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡

[@kimdrury6184]

Boobs not Brooks...spell check oyyyyyy

[@km2927]

Shewww the resentment & forgiveness is SPOT ON! But man is it hard! I thank the Lord He helps us through! But forgiveness must be followed with forgetting if we truly want to get past it… allowing the Lord to cast it as far as the East is from the west! Thank you for that insight! And for speaking about your faith! 💜

[@marycollins874]

Shawn you looked BEAUTIFUL !

[@SophiaBrooke777]

Thanks for the book recommendation! Ordered it and can’t wait to read it! 🎉

[@avblank71]

Haha Andrew sounding like a real man at the end with the flirting with shawn 😂 love it. My man says the same stuff. It’s ok shawn. At least he still says it girl. ❤

[@ajithsherry]

I'm just a fan! I had no idea you both were just outstanding people in the athletic worlds. I just liked you for you! ❤

[@maganjohnson9491]

I love your podcast and think so highly of you guys😊

[@normanegron7619]

God bless!! Love you guys!! Bendiciones desde Puerto Rico!!

[@noexcusesovercomer9018]

Totally unrelated. As a Bama fan I went to the Vandy game in hopes I would see y’all. I spent half the game looking for you on the sidelines and the other half I watched my husband on the verge of a mental breakdown. lol 😂 Y’all are so impressive to me. You have done so much for so many people and I just want to say thank you.

[@larac.8797]

The resentment part is not solely on the person. Especially if the other person that is doing it and not correcting the issue then it also sits on them also.

[@genamartin229]

Can you post a book list that doesn’t necessarily focus on parenthood but just spirituality and self improvement? 🙏🏻❤️

[@jennygormanpratt96]

I believe the question about pain was referring to the emotional agony life can sometimes throw to a marriage. Not literal physical pain. 😅❤

[@amandamenezes5617]

That “I gave birth 3 times” was hilarious

[@autumnmarietaggart]

i love yall ❤ my husband & I are first time parents to a 3 month old girl. I am finding it hard to connect 1 on 1, & feel distant which sucks. We love each other & are a great team so I know we will get through it but any tips?

[@DeborahFields-d6y]

Sometimes I feel like the way you both look at each other and laugh. The show ends and then you go into the back room and spar😂

[@mis5949]
