Indepartners
Think long distance relationships never work? Think again! In Indepartners, two behavioral scientists talk about the advantages and opportunities that come with a permanent, loving relationship – that happens to take place in two different cities.
Dr. Lisa Finkelstein and Dr. Kurt Kraiger have successfully navigated their careers while being, in their words, the happiest couple they know. As Lisa and Kurt explore the dynamics of love at a distance, couples living apart or living together will discover ways to be more intentional and get the most out of their relationships – and their personal lives.
Listen as Lisa and Kurt explore topics like intentionality, communication, and the value of rituals over holidays in a 30-minute format combining personal experience, humor, and relatable examples.
New episodes will drop on the 14th of each month.

Memphis? But you won’t even go to Brooklyn! Mindy and Austin’s story
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In Episode 7 we bring you another great Indepartners interview! Austin is a self-described southern gentleman who was an entrepreneur living in Memphis, and Mindy is an executive living in Manhattan. Austin and Mindy met online and really connected – and then Mindy realized where Austin lived. Her friends predicted it would never last because she “won’t even go to Brooklyn". Luckily, they gave the Indepartners lifestyle a chance and four years later they are thriving.
Mindy and Austin share their unique perspective on some of the themes discussed all season like intentionality, communication, and anticipation. They introduce a new topic to the podcast – the added challenge of each having children who always remain a priority. Both share their insights on how they’ve built the incredible bond they now share. We believe anyone listening will find takeaways from their story to try in their own lives – we know we did!
Thanks for listening!
