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.

#65 The Great Parenting Divide: Gentle V Authoritarian
In this episode, Ben and Nichole dive into one of the biggest challenges couples face, when parenting styles don't align. They share their own heated arguments about handling children's behaviour and explore shocking research showing 20.3% of UK children now have probable mental health disorders, up 70% since 2017.
With 74% of millennial parents practicing gentle parenting globally but only 46% believing it works, there's clearly a disconnect. They discuss how the neurodiversity revolution is changing parenting expectations, the pressure of social media perfection, and cultural complexities in UK families. The biggest revelation? Research shows cooperation between parents matters more than identical styles - it's better to work together imperfectly than against each other perfectly.
