Welcome to Episode 36! Today’s episode is part two of an interview with Kelli and Timothy Lamb. If you haven’t heard part one, you should probably go back and listen to that, because this episode will make a lot more sense if you do. There’s a lot going on in this episode, but there are two themes that struck me as particularly interesting. I’m curious to hear what you think of these, so let me know your thoughts on our facebook page: www.facebook.com/togethershow. The first theme is Kelli’s ability to live life on her terms. We’ve had other couples on the show talk about living outside the box (KT and Doug and JenJen and Noah are two very notable example), but never a couple that appears so classically mainstream. But the truth is of course that none of us is “normal” in any real sense - we’re all outside the standard in one way or another. The lesson from Kelli and Timothy is to embrace that difference. The second theme is the persistence with which Kelli and Tim consistently work their way towards an understanding of what the other needs. It’s lovely to watch that unfold. I’d love to know what you got from the episode, so let me know and I’ll read your comments on a future show. You can email me at [email protected] We posted two articles at Together Magazine this week that fit nicely with the themes in these episodes. The first is called Uncovering Your Expectations, and it’s about Understanding and Sharing what you really want in a relationship before resentment sets in. The second is called Want The One You’re With, and it’s packed full of extraordinarily solid insights into keeping the passion burning in a long term relationship. You can find those at our website: www.together.guide/magazine, You can find more about Kelli on her Instagram Feed @Kellilamb_ or at RueMag.com, where she is managing editor. Timothy’s Instagram is:@TimmyLamb - and he is the Art Director and the Character Designer for Trolls, the forthcoming animated feature from DreamWorks Animation.
