Meg Rock was married to a PGA Tour pro when a back injury changed everything. With two young boys at home and tour income shrinking, she went looking for a way to earn from home and ended up building a direct sales business that grew into a multiple six figure income. Her husband, Brent, stepped into the Mr. Mom role, and the two of them had to figure out a marriage where the roles had completely reversed.

In this episode, Julie and David talk with Meg about what that shift did to their relationship, why she started saying "our business" instead of "my business," and how Brent's time at home paid off for their sons, including a youngest who is now a high school senior fielding baseball scholarship offers. Meg and Julie also compare notes on growing up with undiagnosed learning struggles, and how the things that made school so hard turned into persistence later in life. Meg closes with what she is building now: a new business with LegalShield, which she came to after her own identity was stolen.

What You'll Learn:

• How a career-changing injury reshaped one couple's roles at home
• Why the language you use about money and work matters in a marriage
• What it took to build a home-based business from scratch over three lean years
• How learning struggles in childhood can become strengths in adulthood
• Why Meg believes direct sales is harder to break into today than it was 15 years ago
• What pushed Meg toward legal and identity theft protection plans

Can happily married people still flirt with other people? Is it okay to have close friendships with someone you could be attracted to? Julie and David Bulitt are back from their summer break and kicking off a new season of Conversations for Couples with a topic that sparks plenty of debate: the two F's, flirting and friendships outside the relationship.

Julie, a family therapist for more than 30 years, and David, a divorce and family lawyer for more than 35 years, go back and forth on where playful fun ends and crossing the line begins. They explore the difference between intent and behavior, why the person on the receiving end may not read your flirting the way you meant it, and the "would you do it in front of your spouse" test. From there, the conversation turns to opposite sex friendships, lifelong friends who predate the relationship, staying friends with an ex, work wives and work husbands, and late night texts that can quietly erode trust.

Along the way, they introduce a third letter, the C word: compromise. And they close with a reminder that the most important flirting happens inside your relationship, plus a simple tip for bringing playfulness back when it has faded.

In this episode:
Can married people flirt with others, and where is the line?
Intent vs. behavior: why how it looks can matter as much as what you mean
The "would you do it in front of your spouse" test
Opposite sex friendships before and after marriage
Friendships with exes and why they can get complicated
Work wives, work husbands, and setting after hours boundaries
Respecting a partner's insecurity instead of dismissing it
Why flirting with your own partner is key to a long lasting relationship

Julie and David sit down with Rick Cognata, founder of Legacy of a Grandpa and author of the new book "Connecting Across Generations: One Conversation at a Time," to talk about what it really means to be an intentional grandparent.

Rick built a following of over 125,000 on Instagram sharing bite sized advice for grandparents, and in this conversation he digs into why he believes grandparenting is the greatest role of his life. The three of them talk through creating core memories instead of just giving gifts, navigating boundaries with adult children (including the Bulitts' own "pantry" code word), staying connected through the awkward teenage years, and why presence matters more than perfection. Rick also shares what prompted him to turn his most popular Instagram reels into a book, and how doing this work has shaped his own marriage.
