💡 Falling in love is easy. Staying in love — that's the daily choice that makes relationships thrive.

In this episode of Saying Yes Again, Dr. Lisa and Tony dive into what it really means to "say yes again" — not just once at the altar, but every single day. With warmth, humor, and honesty, they unpack the small, practical choices that keep love alive: patience, grace, communication, and laughter (yes, even when socks are on the floor).

✨ You'll hear:

• Why lasting love is built on everyday decisions, not grand gestures.

• Simple practices for recommitting to your partner daily.

• Real stories — tender from Lisa, witty from Tony — about what choosing love looks like in real life.

Whether you're remarried, newly dating, or simply learning to love yourself again, this conversation will remind you: saying yes again is the foundation of a lasting love.
