Talk to People Podcast

Annie Miller is a former Irish dancer, an avid long-distance runner, and my wife. 

Without Annie, this podcast would be a fraction of what it is. The whole 70 minutes of this podcast contain me laughing at Annie, us sharing stories, and then her weighing in on different questions that were sent in. 

Some of the things you can expect to hear in this episode are:

  • how to communicate expectations in relationships
  • how to keep relationships feeling romantic and alive
  • the day Annie and I met
  • all the details about our secret proposal
  • how to navigate being away from your spouse
  • how to communicate future plans with your spouse
  • one trick you can use to ensure you're being yourself
  • and why I would be the front door if I were in the Beauty and the Beast. 

Thanks so much for everyone who sent questions in! That was a super cool touch and I'm going to do it again in the future!

#20 - Annie Miller: Communication Tips for a Healthy and Connected Relationship
CHRIS MILLER

Description
Transcript
Annie Miller is a former teacher of relational communication, an expert of belongingness, and an all-around all-star. Annie and I met in grad school at Wake Forest University where we were both teaching assistants. I invited a few people to go to a basketball game, and everyone backed out, except Annie. That basketball game ended up being our first unofficial date - and a few years later we were finding someone to dog-sit our golden retriever while we were getting married.
