    Epi 19 Why I Got A Divorce: Reaction to Divorcetok

    A woman posts a story time about why she left her husband. It gets millions of views and a comment section full of people telling her she did the right thing. Patrick and Maddie Martinez watch the whole thing and keep running into the same problem: almost none of the story is actually there. Patrick is a relationship coach, and his first move with any client is an hour of questions before a single piece of advice. So that is what this episode is. What did he actually say. What did she actually hear. Why did he not want her staying at her parents' house. What does the word abuse mean, and does anything described here meet it. Maddie takes the friend's side of it: how do you listen to someone in pain without either dismissing them or handing them a divorce. CHAPTERS 00:00 Welcome, and the viral TikTok we are reacting to 00:15 Her story: gallbladder surgery and a week and a half away 02:46 What is missing from this story 03:14 The questions a real friend would ask 04:43 Patrick's coaching call: 50 minutes of listening first 05:50 Why you need to hear his side too 07:21 Judging a marriage on one person's account 08:43 What respect actually means 10:38 When concern gets heard as criticism 12:38 He failed in the moment, and what he should have said 13:21 A communication problem, not a divorce problem 14:01 Choosing to love when you want to withdraw 16:40 The problem with "love wouldn't do this" 17:34 260,000 likes and one side of the story 19:49 She calls it abuse, and Patrick defines the word 21:55 "You would have to be the one to leave me" 22:53 Rewriting the marriage after you have already decided 24:51 Praying for direction and hearing what you want 26:15 Disrespect: never asking why he objected 27:38 The panic attack in the car 30:08 Wrapping up ABOUT THE SHOW The Tenacity Podcast is hosted by Patrick Martinez, relationship coach, with his wife and co-host Maddie Martinez. Marriage, relationships, and the work of staying in it.

    Epi 18 The Eight Rules on Our Wall

    Patrick and Maddie wrote eight rules, framed them, and hung them on the wall. This is the story of the Martinez family code, where it came from, and what actually changed in the house after they started living by it. This is a special episode of The Tenacity Podcast, cut from Lesson 3 of the Survive & Thrive course. CHAPTERS 0:00 Talk to your kids first 0:54 The morning that is already won by nine 2:43 The Martinez family code, all eight rules 5:25 Before the pills, check sleep food and movement 7:25 What actually changed in our house 8:44 My ten year old called the cookies poison THE MARTINEZ FAMILY CODE 1. We listen to our consciences and serve the Lord 2. We respect each other 3. We control our emotions and don't speak in anger 4. We are thankful and don't complain 5. We exercise and care for our bodies and minds 6. We eat healthy foods 7. We protect each other 8. We do hard things IN THIS EPISODE Why safeguarding your family starts with talking to your kids rather than handing them rules. What a Martinez homeschool morning looks like, stretching and a short discussion based Bible study, and why by nine in the morning the important things are already done. Where the family code came from. What Patrick thinks parents should check before reaching for a prescription. What changed in their youngest daughter once the routine held. And what happened when she walked in, looked at a box of Girl Scout cookies on the counter, and asked her dad what it was. The code came out of reading The Way of the Warrior Kid by Jocko Willink together as a family, a chapter a night, which is where the idea of writing your own code came from. Patrick Martinez is a life coach and the host of The Tenacity Podcast. He and his wife Maddie work with couples in crisis. Survive & Thrive is the full paid course this episode is cut from.

    Epi 17 Part 2 How He Won Her Back After A Divorce Threat

    She found a divorce lawyer, told her husband she was done, and he finally started showing up. Now he packs the lunches, runs the school drop-offs, coaches the sports and volunteers to bring the snacks without being asked. Everybody in the comments called it a win. In Part 2, Patrick and Maddie Martinez get into what that story actually shows. Whether a man who changes because he is terrified of losing custody has really changed. Whether she could have gotten the same result without ever saying the word divorce. What happened when they laid out a deck of cards and she ended up holding 73 of them and he held four. And why swapping the imbalance instead of solving it puts a couple right back in the same fight two years later with the names reversed. The core of it: stop trying to make the list even. Divide it by who is faster, who is better at it, and who actually has the time this week. The goal is a household with less stress in it, not a scoreboard that comes out tied. If you missed Part 1, watch that first. More from Patrick and Maddie at PatrickEMartinez.com. Online courses are up now, and Patrick's book is out this summer. New episodes every week.

    Ep 15: What to Look For in a Spouse 8 Qualities That Actually Matter

    Chemistry fades. These eight qualities are what actually hold a marriage together.In this episode, Patrick and Maddie break down the eight qualities that actually matter when you are evaluating someone as a spouse, not just a partner. They split them into two tiers. Tier one covers the non negotiables: honesty as the foundation everything else is built on, humility, respect, and knowing yourself well enough to know what you actually need in a partner. Tier two rounds out the list: compatible values, appropriate boundaries with family and friends, sexual attraction, and personality compatibility, including how to work through the clashes instead of ignoring them.Take the course to go deeper: patrickemartinez.com/relationship-rescue/Listen to the full conversation on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and everywhere else you listen.

    Ep 14: Married but Not Best Friends? Here's How to Fix It

    In this one, Maddie and I talk about something people ask us all the time. How did you two actually become best friends, not just husband and wife? So we break it down. What it took to get there, why you have to choose your spouse's company over everyone else's, and why the differences didn't matter nearly as much as we thought they would. I even bring up watching our oldest daughter build that same kind of friendship with her best friend, and how much it looks exactly like what Maddie and I built over the years without even realizing we were doing it. If you want that with your spouse, I don't think it happens by accident. You build it.
