In this episode, Julia and Gino sit down with world-renowned relationship expert Dr. John Gray, author of Men Are from Mars, Women Are from Venus, to break down what’s really happening when couples fight… and why most people were never taught how to do it right.

In this powerful episode, Julia and Gino sit down with Bill High to explore how intentional families create multi-generational impact rooted in purpose, faith, and values. “If you don’t have a picture of the shoreline, you’ll quit in the storm.” That insight becomes the foundation for a deeper conversation around vision, resilience, and what it takes to stay committed — not just in business, but in family legacy. Bill shares his journey from attorney to founder of one of the nation’s largest Christian foundations, and how his work today through Legacy Stone helps families define their mission, navigate conflict, and build something meaningful that endures beyond wealth.
