In this first episode of Unlocking the Keys to a Better Marriage, I’m giving you access to my recent workshop in a 3 part series. Because trust me, I’ve been where you might be now. I know what it feels like to wake up next to someone you love… and still feel disconnected, exhausted, and alone. But that wasn’t the end of my story. And it doesn’t have to be the end of yours, either.

I’m opening up about the shifts that helped me move from feeling like roommates to rebuilding the emotional safety, connection, and yes—passion—I thought we’d lost. And why so many of us stay stuck, even when we’re trying everything we know to fix it.

If you’ve ever felt unseen, unheard, or like you’re carrying the weight of your marriage on your own… Press play.

Let’s begin this journey together.

In today’s episode, I’m joined by the incredibly brave and beautiful soul, Erica Rankin. From the outside, Erica had built what many would call success — a business she launched into hundreds of stores, a growing personal brand, and all the achievements we’re taught to chase.

But what she shares with us today is the truth behind that success: the patterns, pain, and stories that kept her running — and the moment she realized none of it was ever going to make her feel “enough.”

Erica opens up about the parts of her journey that most people would keep hidden — her time in sex work, the spiral of seeking worth through her body, business, relationships, and performance. More than anything, this is a conversation about courage. You’ll hear how she learned to stop abandoning herself and start writing a new story — one that aligns with the woman she was always meant to be.

I hope this conversation serves you. If it does, I’d be honored if you shared it with someone who needs it. Your healing is powerful. And your story — just like Erica’s — matters more than you know.

Have you ever caught yourself thinking, “If they would just change, I could finally feel peace”? I’ve been there—and I know how exhausting that cycle can be.

For years, I thought if my partner showed up differently, everything would get better. But what I’ve learned, both in my own life and in the lives of the women I work with, is this: peace doesn’t come from fixing someone else. It comes from healing what’s being stirred within you.

In this episode, I’m walking you through three powerful shifts that helped me break free from that pattern—and that I believe can shift everything for you too. These are the exact mindset and energy shifts that lead to more peace, more clarity, and more personal freedom, regardless of whether or not anyone else changes.

I’ll share how your triggers are actually sacred invitations, why trying to control others is a form of avoidance (not awakening), and how to start leading with your energy instead of your agenda.

If you’re ready to stop spiraling in frustration and start feeling grounded and powerful again, this conversation is for you.

This episode is a first—Mark Herrin joins me on the podcast! After 30+ years of marriage, we’re opening up the door to our healing journey as a couple and inviting you into a raw, unfiltered conversation from our living room (with a dog at our feet and everything).

What started as my healing journey—after the loss of my mother and years of subconscious patterns finally catching up—turned into a transformation that touched every part of my life and by extension, Mark's life as well. In this episode, Mark and I share the 3 biggest shifts we’ve seen in each other through this process, how old stories were quietly running the show, and the powerful difference between reacting and responding in a relationship.

You’ll hear about:

• Why healing your own stories can shift your marriage—before your partner even starts doing the work
• What safety really means in a relationship (and how it leads to deeper intimacy)
• How resentment quietly builds walls, and what happens when you take the armor off
• Mark’s honest take on doing “the work” as a man—and what finally motivated him to step into it

This episode is a love letter to the couples who feel stuck in the good but not great zone… and to every woman who wonders, Can this get better if I start first?

Spoiler alert: It can. We’re proof. 💛

This is the episode I wish I had a decade ago.

I’m not sharing a strategy. I’m not handing you a mindset hack.
I’m sharing the soul-level work that helped me break through emotional patterns I didn’t even know were running the show.

In this episode, I open up about the healing that changed everything—from my relationship with my mom, to walking away from toxicity, to rewriting the story I had around love, worthiness, and connection.

If you’ve ever felt like you were performing, pleasing, or pretending your way through life just to feel safe or accepted…
If love has felt like walking on eggshells…
If you’ve stayed in relationships that left you unseen, unheard, or undervalued…

This is for you.

You deserve to feel free in your life, your relationships, and your heart.

After 33 years of marriage, I’ve learned a few things… and not all of them were easy to face.

In today’s episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on something that changed everything in my relationship—and it wasn’t about changing him. It started with a deeper look at my own healing, my triggers, and the quiet stories I was believing without even realizing it.

This conversation might surprise you. We’re talking about what your husband may not know how to say, the ways emotional wounds show up in a marriage (without anyone meaning to), and how understanding just one core truth shifted everything for us.

If you’ve ever felt like there’s a disconnect you can’t quite name in your relationship... if you’ve ever wondered why your needs feel unmet even when he’s “doing all the things”… or if you’re just tired of carrying the emotional weight alone—this episode is for you.

There’s something deeper happening here. Let’s talk about it.

Important note: This message is not meant for relationships where abuse—emotional, physical, or otherwise—is present. In those situations, your safety and healing are of the utmost importance and come first.

This episode is for the mamas who are doing their best to raise good humans... while also trying to stay sane, present, and not totally lose themselves in the process.

Deanna sits down with Annique Dean—a mother of five, certified parenting coach, and someone who’s walked the talk for over two decades. Together, we’ll unpack the unspoken struggles of parenting, the pressure to be “liked” by your kids, and what the most loving thing we can do for them as parents.

You’ll hear real-life moments (like how Annique handled one of her teens demanding a last-minute ride to school), what it actually looks like to teach nervous system regulation at home, and why parenting with the end in mind can change everything.

This is a heartfelt, practical, and powerful conversation that’ll leave you feeling seen, supported, and more confident in the way you lead your home—whether your kids are toddlers or teenagers.
