    How to Build Relationship Longevity

    What Makes a Relationship Thrive Long-Term? Hayley & Brian on Love, Longevity, and Building a Life That Feels Good from the Inside Out In this episode, Hayley Foster and Brian Valenza—co-founders of Fostering Longevity—share the real behind-the-scenes of what makes their relationship work as two high-achieving, service-driven, mission-focused partners. From daily micro-moments of connection (like never leaving without a kiss or filling each other's water bottles) to navigating the deeper dynamics of masculine and feminine energy, this conversation is for anyone who wants to build a more intentional, conscious relationship—with their partner and with themselves. We talk about:  ✅ What it means to be wired to serve—and how that fuels our partnership 💋 The daily rituals that keep us connected in the chaos of life 🧠 How to have conversations about what you actually need in your relationship 🫶 The power of understanding your partner's love language 🔥 How a type-A woman in her masculine can safely return to her feminine energy 🪞Why we all need to be able to look in the mirror and love who we see At the core of this episode is a truth we both live by: Longevity isn't just about how long you live. It's about how well you love, how aligned you feel, and how fully you show up for yourself and others. That's why we're co-hosting a powerful longevity and lifestyle retreat in November, in collaboration with BioCulture—to help individuals and couples: * Reconnect with their bodies * Reset their nervous systems * Transform their energy * Deepen their relationships * And finally feel good in their own skin again If you're ready to become the most vibrant, grounded, optimal version of yourself—and do it alongside others on the same journey—this episode (and this retreat) is for you.
