For anyone that has followed me for some time, you'd know that Lindsay and I are part of a blended family. Because of the way shared custody works in Ohio, that means Lindsay and I share a fair amount of alone time while Gianna is at her dad's house. While I absolutely adore time with Gianna, I'd be lying if I didn't say that the time without Gianna has helped Lindsay and I grow closer. This past weekend we didn't have Gianna, and I'll be honest, I was thrilled to be able to get some extra work done. However, the opportunity to spend some extra time with Gianna arose unexpectedly. Listen to find out how I overcame the anxiety and what reward ultimately came on the back end.

0:00.0 | Good morning and happy Wednesday my friend today we are taking it back |
0:06.0 | to how things used to be and what I mean by that is I have been feeling nostalgic for the feel in the flow of 15 minutes of freedom, the original |
0:14.1 | podcast and want to share a story from this weekend based just around that |
0:19.1 | fact. So this weekend that has just passed is a weekend that |
0:25.0 | that Lindsay and I, my wife, do not have our daughter, Gianna. |
0:29.0 | She's with her biological father. |
0:31.0 | That happens for us inside of our household every other weekend. |
0:36.2 | If you are unfamiliar, you happen to be one of the very fortunate ones that has not went through |
0:40.5 | a divorce so far. I think that's a pretty common occurrence. |
0:45.5 | One night a week and every other weekend seems to be at least in Ohio the generally accepted |
0:51.3 | custody split. |
0:53.4 | And so on these weekends, I'm incredibly fortunate where I get to connect with just my wife. |
1:01.9 | And as polarizing as that statement may be, let's not kid ourselves parents. |
1:06.0 | There's part of us that can breathe a sigh of relief when we don't have our |
1:10.4 | children around. It's not because we don't love them. It's not because we |
1:14.2 | don't care for them. It's not because they don't make a smile and laugh. It's just nice |
1:19.4 | in the moment to only have to take care of ourselves, isn't it? |
1:23.0 | To get to do more of what we want and maybe a little less of what they would want us to do. |
1:30.0 | And so from that place of experience in that ever the weekend my wife and I's relationship is |
