With Valentine’s Day just around the corner, love is in the air—and Lyndsey and I have an exciting announcement to share! We are coauthoring a relationship book, Nothing Can Stop Us Now: Timeless Tips for Your Happily Ever After.
Since the day we met, people have asked us, “How did this happen?” They’re curious about our relationship, our journey, and what makes our dynamic work so well. So, we decided to take everything we’ve learned—through both experience and a little Disney magic—and turn it into a book filled with stories, humor, and practical wisdom for couples looking to build their own happily ever after.
A Relationship Guide, Disney Style
Lindsey and I both love Disney, and just like a great Disney park experience, a great relationship is built on intentional design, communication, and a little bit of pixie dust. Our book will feature chapter titles inspired by Disney parks, lands, shows, and attractions—each one offering valuable lessons on love, commitment, and partnership.
Here’s a sneak peek at a few of our favorites:
- Temple of the Forbidden You: The power of using “I” statements and taking personal responsibility in communication.
- The Law of Attraction(s): How the principles of attraction shape relationships in more ways than one.
- Tone Town: Why it’s not just what you say, but how you say it.
- Silly Symphonies: The importance of shared music, inside jokes, and creating a language that’s uniquely yours.
- Fight of Passage: Establishing rules for constructive conflict so disagreements bring you closer instead of driving you apart.
- Pleasure Island: The role of intimacy and connection in a healthy relationship.
- Expectations Everest: Managing and overcoming relationship expectations to avoid unnecessary conflict and disappointment.
- Neverland: A list of things you should never do in a relationship (because some battles just aren’t worth fighting!).
Writing this book together will be an incredible adventure, and we can’t wait to share it with you.
Keeping the Love Alive All Month Long
Since February is the month of love, we’re dedicating the rest of this month’s WEDnesdays with Walt blogs to relationship wisdom inspired by Nothing Can Stop Us Now. Here’s what you can look forward to next:
February 19: Trash Cans: Why the Details Matter More Than You Think
When people think of Disney parks, they often focus on the big attractions. But some of the most powerful storytelling happens in the smallest details—like the trash cans. Disney’s trash cans are carefully themed to blend seamlessly with each land, enhancing the immersive experience. Just like in a relationship, it’s not always the grand gestures that have the greatest effect—it’s the little things. In this post, we’ll explore how paying attention to the small details can strengthen your relationship in ways you never imagined.
February 26: Refurbishment Required: The Power of Do-Overs in Love
Just as theme parks need maintenance and refurbishments to keep the magic alive, relationships need their own updates and do-overs. We’ll talk about how to refresh your connection and keep your love story evolving.
We’d love to hear your thoughts! What topics would you like us to cover in Nothing Can Stop Us Now? Let us know in the comments or reply to this email. After all, relationships are always better with a little community magic.
Here’s to a month of love, adventure, and building our own happily ever afters!
