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.

#24: Feeling the Holiday Pressure? Here’s How to Actually Enjoy Christmas as a Couple and a Family
The festive season can look beautiful on the outside—and still feel completely overwhelming. Between the family dynamics, financial pressure, emotional triggers, and endless to-do lists, most couples are barely holding it together by Christmas Day.
In this episode, Nichole and Ben share how they navigate the chaos of the season while protecting their relationship, their energy, and the peace inside their home. From managing tricky family situations to surviving the mental load of parenting and holiday prep—they talk honestly about what really helps when things start to feel too much.
This one’s part practical, part personal. You'll hear real stories about blending families, dealing with divorced parents, letting go of perfection, and choosing joy on your own terms. There’s even a debate about whether Die Hard counts as a Christmas movie (they’re still not 100% aligned on that one).
If the holidays leave you feeling more drained than connected, this episode will help you reset. You don’t need to do more. You just need to make space for what matters.
