Love for Life Podcast
The podcast for modern couples who want real connection that lasts.
Hosted by relationship and family coach Nichole Farrow and her husband Ben, this show is for couples trying to stay close while raising kids, building careers, and handling the stress of everyday life. Each week, they unpack the real issues behind modern relationships—intimacy, emotional connection, mental load, conflict, communication, and the quiet resentments no one talks about.
With a mix of expert insight and raw honesty, Nichole and Ben give you practical tools to strengthen your relationship, raise emotionally secure kids, and create a life you both actually want. Because working on your relationship isn’t just for when things go wrong—it’s a lifestyle choice that impacts everything. Research shows couples who invest in their connection are 6x more successful and live 4 years longer.
If you’re ready to break generational cycles, ditch the surface-level advice, and do the real work of love—this is your podcast.

#29: Only 14% of People Feel Happy—Here’s What the Rest of Us Are Missing
We’re more connected than ever, but so many of us feel emotionally empty. So what’s really going on?
In this episode, Nichole and Ben sit down with Tamika Carlton—Relationship and Communication Expert and founder of Couples Experience—to talk about why only 14% of people say they feel genuinely happy… and why it has everything to do with how we show up in our relationships.
They explore what authentic connection really means (hint: it’s not just “good communication”), how to move past surface-level interactions, and what it takes to build relationships that feel safe, reciprocal, and deeply fulfilling—whether it’s with your partner, friends, or even your work colleagues.
This episode is for anyone feeling disconnected, burnt out, or craving something deeper. The good news? It’s not too late to change the way you love—and be loved.
