What's happened to the sanctity of marriage? It seems today's world has shifted from commitment-based marriages to an era of 'expressive individualism' - but at what cost? Join us as we scrutinize this startling decline and the seismic societal shifts that have led us here. We're diving deep into the statistics, the causes, and the far-reaching implications of this change. Is it the independence of the 'me generation?' What about women's escalating roles in the workforce? We're questioning it all.

The second half of our conversation turns the spotlight onto the fallout of this marriage recession. We're exposing the harsh realities of men losing touch with their children post-divorce and the alarming erosion of commitment in our increasingly self-centered society. But, there's hope! So, join us in this thought-provoking exploration and learn the tools you need to restore the foundations of family and commitment.
