Advertise on podcast: Committed to Us

Committed Community, we have a spicy one for you guys today. It’s time to talk about our sex life…kind of. We read an article the other day about scheduling vs. spontaneous sex and it was eye opening. People assume that scheduling intimacy makes it less passionate and can even hurt a relationship, but is that really true? Find out which one of us wants to give it a try.

We’re not gonna lie…this is probably one of our more raw and challenging conversations we’ve had on the podcast. If you’ve been listening to some of our recent episodes, you know that these past few weeks have been tough for us. In the midst of that, I (Ced) addressed not feeling loved. In most circumstances, it’s a conversation worth having, but in this case, the timing probably couldn’t have been worse. In this episode, we talk about what happened and what we learned from it.

If you’ve ever been in a relationship, you know that there’s at least that one thing your partner does that you don’t like. You want things to be different…but is that okay? Is it right to try and change your partner? And if not, how can you still improve the situation? From our own experience this isn’t an easy conversation to have with your partner but we have some ideas on how to make it work.

Let’s just be honest for a second and admit that men have to do more work in a relationship, right? Or is it women? This is one of those conversations that everyone has an opinion on. Whether it’s things as simple as the dishes or laundry or something more intense like creating capacity for emotional weight, is it men or women that have to do more? We’ve got a lot of thoughts on both sides of this debate…get ready for a passionate discussion.

Committed Community, let us know some things you do to to support your partner when you don't understand them in the comments. It has taken us years to get to a point where we understand how to support each other when we didn't understand one another. We recently went through a miscarriage and I (Ced) couldn't understand where Charlotte was coming from or going through but I did my best to understand and support her. There have been times where the roles were reversed and Charlotte had to do her best to try to understand me. Hope this episode can help you out Committed Community!

Committed Community we are back and feeling bette than ever! We took a 5 month break that was much needed. Today, we are talking about he ups and downs our break and the importance of taking break in in relationships. Let us know what you agree or disagree with!

Welcome back to episode 2 of CedTalks! Today I'm talking with one of my best friends who played football with me at the University of Minnesota and is now a member of the Houston Texans, Eric Murray. During our college days, Eric and I had similar "motives" I guess you could say. In this episode, we talk about our past, why we did it, and advice we would give our 18 year old self.

As you may have seen in our last video, Charlotte is taking a break from the podcast this month to focus on other parts of life. In the meantime, I wanted to try out a new type of episode, Cedtalks. In this episode, I wanted to talk to someone I’ve been following for a while now on Youtube, HINDZ. We discuss why men cheat and the benefits of celibacy. Subscribe to Hindz on Youtube and follow him on IG - @hindzsight.

Have you ever texted something to your partner that was meant to be nice or funny and they took it as something mean or sarcastic? Texting in a relationship is great for communication, but at the same time, it can be the cause of major issues or arguments. It’s easy to mix up the tone of someone’s message when you don’t hear it from their voice or talk to them in-person. In this episode we discuss our own problems with texting each other and actually figured out a solution while recording!

Whether your in a relationship or not, we’ve all been here before. Your stressed out or tired and you start reacting to the people around you in a mean way for no reason at all. Being in a relationship for many years now, we’ve both been on the receiving end and it’s easy to want to respond back in a mean way. Today we wanted to talk about a recent example of this and give you some advice on how to resolve it rather than making the situation worse.

We've been getting a lot of questions recently on Instagram and Youtube about our February episode on scheduling. Specifically, many of you asked how we find time for intimacy when we have such a busy schedule with work and kids. In today's episode, we wanted to share our successful formula with you and walk through practical steps on how to keep intimacy alive! We created a PDF that allows you to go through the same steps that we did when it comes to creating a weekly and monthly game plan. It's been life changing for us and we hope you feel the same! This is our secret to keeping intimacy alive: https://thecedshop.com/​ 

One of Ced’s friends had an interesting question the other day, “Why do people feel the need to get married? Is it even worth it?” If you’ve been following along these past few months, you might know that we have been going to marriage counseling and this question is one that we have wrestled with answering. Today, we wanted to walk through our answers together and give some advice if you are thinking about getting married too.
