Sunday Nice Things: Starter Marriage
About this episode
Rain on your wedding day is supposed to mean good luck, but for Allison and John, it meant they were about to have the worst year of their lives. From John experiencing a life-changing set-back in his career, to Allison losing her beloved mother to a rare neurological disease, their time as newlyweds was anything but peaceful. But in the inaugural episode of the podcast, John and Allison dissect how this rough patch ultimately strengthened their commitment to an institution that many feel is no longer necessary.

Learn more about the possibilities of modern marriage with a copy of I DO (I THINK): Conversations About Modern Marriage. Purchase Allison’s new romcom novel Save The Date.
