145. Fantasizing in your Marriage and the Role of Escapism

Take the red pill or the blue pill... fantasizing about how your life might look if you weren't with the person you married, or if you didn't have kids, or if you never took that job offer. Perfectly normal and healthy form of escapism or a hurtful practice towards your partner? Marisol and Adam discuss the times where they feel distance from one another and what role escapism plays in resetting their togetherness or continues to push the pattern of separateness along. whether it is zoning out on the couch instead of actually reconnecting, nitpicking the others non-verbal cues as they zone out (or tune in) to what the other is saying, and letting their mind wonder the "what-ifs" of life, Marisol and Adam cover it all in this high tension episode.

About the Podcast

Reading Aloud
Welcome to the Reading Aloud Podcast, a place where the creative, emotional and hilarious aspects of relationship communication are explored in real-time, by a real Married couple. Marisol and Adam are a married couple living in Asheville, North Carolina. Outside of the Podcast, Marisol is an entrepreneur, who owns SolReflection, a therapeutic image consulting firm (she's a style therapist) and Adam works for Dogwood Alliance, a environmental non-profit organization. After dating, marriage, and lots of travel, the couple went on a long fertility journey. That journey lead them to IVF, a tremulous pregnancy, post partum depression and an amazing life altering miracle kid, Neo (all while recording the ups & downs). These days Marisol and Adam are raising a toddler, navigating the surrogate process to add to their family, and starting the egg retrieval/IVF process again after a miscarriage. Tune in as the couple provides you insight into how they communicate, navigate and thrive through married life, parenting, being an adult, and living in the world today.
