Loving relationships are essential for a healthy and happy life, and a fulfilling lovelife. Relationship expert and radio host, Alvean Lyons and Doug Weiss, author of Life, Love & Internet Dating explore the subject in their weekly podcast series. They offer both practical advice and help listeners navigate the challenges they may encounter as they seek to find and build a lasting relationship with that special someone. This is decidedly not your parent's advice to the lovelorn. Alvean and Doug's take on contemporary topics and thorny questions spans generations and holds nothing back. When do you blend families from prior marriages? Can you prevent cheating? Why do we find ourselves dating the same kind of person all the time, and why doesn't it ever work out? Alvean's direct and honest counsel is matched by Doug's spiritual grounding and while they may not always come from the same direction, they invariably end up in the same place--with a prescription for living your life well and happily.

So much wisdom
Love having a male and female perspective on this podcast. They offer such wisdom and have helped me navigate the complexities of my relationship. Thankful for sharing your gifts.
Awesome
I love the analogies. I love the topics. I love the different perspectives. Ummm... yeah. Digging it.
My only critique would be to either talk away from the mic as, for some. The saliva noises in their ears would be a turn-off. Good content, though, at a low volume.
Love it!!
I have really enjoyed this podcast so much! Extremely insightful and balanced thoughts on all things love and life! There has been a take away for me from each podcast and now that I’m all caught up, I am repeating many of the past ones while I wait. Alvean and Doug are a great combo—please don’t stop doing this! Thank you!!
