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.

#30: How do you know if your needs aren’t being met…or if you’re expecting too much?
In this episode, Nichole and Ben unpack one of the most confusing—and common—relationship struggles: figuring out the line between healthy needs and unrealistic expectations.
They break down the psychology behind why we feel let down, what emotional responsibility really looks like in a partnership, and how to stop resenting your partner for things they were never meant to carry.
If you’ve ever wondered, “Am I asking too much—or not enough?” this conversation will help you get clear on what’s truly fair, what’s yours to work on, and how to rebuild a connection that feels balanced and safe for both of you.
