What if the key to a stronger, healthier relationship is the same strategy used to run successful businesses?

In this episode, host Marty Winder Adams sits down with Dr. Robin Buckley, a clinical psychologist, executive coach, and author of Marriage Incorporated: The Boardroom Blueprint to a Lasting Love. Dr. Buckley shares a fresh perspective on relationships—treating them with the same intention, planning, and structure that make companies thrive.

Drawing from her work with high-performing executives, Dr. Buckley explains why many people excel professionally yet struggle in their personal relationships. She introduces the idea of applying proven business principles—like mission statements, role clarity, performance check-ins, and strategic planning—to create stronger, more intentional partnerships.

In this conversation, you’ll discover why relying on “love alone” isn’t always enough, how structure can actually make space for more romance and connection, and why prevention and intentionality are key to building a lasting relationship.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• Why successful professionals often struggle to apply their skills to relationships
• How business frameworks like mission statements and KPIs can improve communication and alignment
• Why structure in a relationship can enhance romance instead of diminishing it
• Practical strategies couples can implement immediately
• How intentional planning can prevent common relationship breakdowns

Whether you're currently in a relationship, rebuilding after one, or preparing for a future partner, this episode offers practical insights for building a stronger foundation for lasting love.
