Ep 72: Creating a Marriage of Equals with Catherine E. Aponte

What is the difference between a conflict and a disagreement? Do self-help books actually help? What does it really mean to have equality in a relationship? Find out in this week's episode of The Learn to Love Podcast, where your host Zach Beach interviews the Clinical Psychologist Catherine E. Aponte, Psy.D. on Creating a Marriage of Equals For more on this episode click here: https://www.the-heart-center.com/ep-72-creating-a-marriage-of-equals-with-catherine-e-aponte/ Learn more about your guest below: Catherine Aponte, Psy.D., was previously a clinical psychologist and an adjunct professor at Spalding University. Dr. Aponte is married to a clinical psychologist, Joseph F. Aponte. They married in 1960, a time of significant social change. Joe had his Ph.D. and Catherine had a BS when they moved to Chapel Hill, NC in 1970, where Joe took his first job. It was at this time that Catherine decided she wanted to go to graduate school in psychology. This created a problem for them because Joe had earned his degree and was ready to begin his career in psychology. By this time, his status and earning power were higher than Catherine’s, and would remain so. What this meant to her and perhaps other women in this situation, was that what she wanted to do was limited to some degree by her husband’s greater earning power and by a late start on a career. Dr. Aponte and her husband embarked upon a marital journey guided by the basic principle that neither one of their careers was more important than the other’s. Catherine did earn her doctoral degree in psychology and has had a successful private practice of psychology working primarily with couples. Joe took an academic route. Her book, A Marriage of Equals: How to Achieve Balance in a Committed Relationship and this Psychology Today Blog is based on Catherine’s lived experience during the feminist revolution of the 70s with her loving and supportive husband, her training as a psychologist at the University of Florida, Duke University, and Spalding University, and as a practicing psychologist working with couples for over 30 years in Louisville, Kentucky. Dr. Aponte was awarded a USPHS Traineeship covering the four years she was a graduate student at Duke University. During Dr. Aponte’s professional career both as a clinician in private practice and an adjunct professor of clinical psychology at Spalding University, she made numerous presentations about her work with couples, including her theory about the dynamics of an equitable marital relationship. She chaired eight doctoral dissertations testing her theoretical model of relationships. She created a blog, “amillennialmarriage,” and has maintained a social media presence on Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, and Pinterest. She has contributed several letters to the editor of the Courier-Journal in Louisville, related to gender issues. Both her master’s thesis at Duke University and her doctoral thesis at Spalding University focused on gender and marriage. Dr. Aponte has participated in various professional activities during her career such as chairing a State-wide conference on the shared responsibilities of work and family; participating in a radio panel on the Shriver Report; chairing the Gender Issues Committee for the Kentucky Psychological Association; participating in The Third Path Institute, a group working to support sharing parental care; and heading up a residential living program for chemically dependent women. Throughout her career as a clinical psychologist, Dr. Aponte has been devoted to helping couples co-create a committed and equitable marriage because: (1) women will not achieve equality in society as a whole if they live in a gender-defined relationship; (2) women today are more likely not to marry than to live in a traditional marriage; (3) having a good relationship in the context of marriage is good for us as individuals and good for our society; (4) having both mother and father equally invested—equal joy a

Ep 70: Should We Get a Prenup? with Aaron Thomas

What leads couple on the path to divorce? When, and why, should a couple get a prenuptial agreement? What are some good financial strategies for spouses to have? Find out in this week's episode of The Learn to Love Podcast, where your host Zach Beach interviews the divorce and family law attorney Aaron Thomas on Should We Get a Prenup? For more on this episode click here: https://www.the-heart-center.com/ep-70-should-we-get-a-prenup-with-aaron-thomas/(opens in a new tab) Learn more about your guest below: Attorney Aaron Thomas has been an attorney for almost twenty years, helping secure favorable settlements and verdicts for clients from all walks of life. He graduated from Harvard Law School in 2002, and ever since 2007 Aaron has practiced family law exclusively, in order to help people navigate emotional and difficult disputes over divorce, custody, and child support. He has covered a variety of cases in family law, everything from representing superstar athletes and entertainers to working professionals and stay at home parents. After focusing on divorce and custody disputes for most of his career, he's turned his attention to trying to prevent the arguments that lead to divorce in the first place. In 2020, he founded prenups.com, a fair and friendly take on prenuptial and postnuptial agreements which have gotten a bad rap but can be a useful tool for couples to plan - not for divorce - but for how they will handle their finances (and other issues) during the marriage itself. He himself has been married for five years, and when he got married he and his wife, who is also a lawyer, sat down and wrote their own prenup that addresses lots of the arguments that Aaron witnessed breaking marriages apart during his career. From how you set up your accounts, to household financial meetings, from counseling, to how much you can spend without checking with your spouse first - Aaron will share with us creative provisions you can include in your own prenuptial agreement that could actually improve your marriage.  Learn more at  - https://www.aaronthomaslaw.com/ - https://prenups.com/ - https://www.facebook.com/Aaron-Thomas-Law-786150208408617/ - https://twitter.com/aaronthomaslaw Learn more about your host and the show at: www.zachbeach.com www.the-heart-center.com Support The Show: If you like the show there are many ways you can support it, such as, - Register for Relationship Mastery, a 6-week self-guided course to take your relationship to the next level. https://www.the-heart-center.com/relationship-mastery-landing-page/ - Check out one of our sponsors, Listenable and use the discount code “zachbeach” for the first seven days on the platform for free.
