    Weighing in on the Cruz Verdict w/ Attorney and Producer Michael Riley

    In this episode, we share our thoughts on the Nikolas Cruz verdict and invite Michael Riley, Kaitlin’s father and former Assistant State Attorney in South Florida, to weigh in on the jury’s decision to reject the death penalty and what it means for school safety moving forward. On February 14,  2018, Nikolas Cruz killed 17 innocents at Marjorie Stoneman Douglas highschool in Parkland Florida.  As part of the Code Red Foundation, we are on mission to make our children’s lives and schools safer in response to the mass shootings that have unfortunately become the new normal of our society. We encourage you to watch our film, https://codereddoc.com/watchnow/ and join us at the code red foundation, https://coderedyotn.org/ , to take action now in order to preserve the future of the youth of our nation.

    The Joys & The Struggles: Another Loss

    In today's episode, we share about our most recent miscarriage.  It’s definitely not easy to discuss, but we know that many, indeed MILLIONS, are suffering in silence because the subject matter is still so taboo.  We hope you’ll join us as we share our experience with this most recent loss and the hard lessons we learned between our first miscarriage two years ago and today in an effort to build more empathy and understanding around this complicated, all too ‘common’ loss.

    #MakingItWork4OurKids: Will They Ever Be Safe?

    As our nation continues to try to process the tragedy at Robb Elementary in Uvalde, Texas, we share our concerns and possible solutions to this national crisis. We talk about the documentary we helped produce about the 2018 shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida, and compare the safety failures between these two tragic shootings. Searching and imploring our audience to take on this very difficult subject matter, we look for ways to affect a system that unfortunately still allows for these atrocities to exist. We pray for healing for all of the victims families and hope that through discussion and action, not indifference, the lives lost will not be in vain.

    The Sex Series: Yep, We're Talking About It! (One of us more reluctantly than the other.. ;)

    When Kati Morton (LMFT, Episodes 6 & 7!) said that sex is one of the three main reasons that people get divorced, Jordi immediately knew it was a topic that had to be broached on Making it Work... convincing Kaitlin of this was not quite as immediate. Ha! In the intro to 'The Sex Series,' Jordi and Katie discuss times that intimacy has been an issue in their marriage, preserving kids' innocence in this day and age, and Katie (reluctantly) participates in a little intimacy Q&A and is shocked to find out that her husband, indeed, likes 'normal man' things.
