We’ve been conditioned to view being single as a 'waiting room'—a temporary, slightly awkward space you’re just trying to pass through until the 'real' part of your life begins. But what if that’s a lie? What if this isn’t a delay, but an intentional season and space to steward?

In this episode of The Leader’s Cut, Preston Morrison & Tim Ross gets incredibly honest about the obsession with relationship status. We’re moving past the usual platitudes to talk about what it looks like to be a whole, functioning human being—with or without a partner.

This conversation covers:

• The "Missing Piece" Myth: Why a relationship isn’t a magic fix for your problems or your personality.
• Maxing Out Your Freedom: How to actually use the time, energy, and headspace you have right now instead of wasting it on "what ifs."
• Dealing with the Noise: Practical ways to handle the pressure from family, friends, and social media that makes you feel like you're "behind."
• Ownership: Taking responsibility for your own happiness and growth today, rather than putting it on a future person.

This isn’t a guide on how to get a date, it’s a reality check for anyone who feels like they’re stuck in "pause" mode. It’s time to stop looking at the door and start living in the room you’re currently in.

Too often, we treat the "honeymoon phase" as the peak of our affection, only to let laziness, immaturity, and walls slowly dismantle the foundation of our most important relationship. In this episode of The Leader’s Cut, we’re breaking down the "Architecture of Affection." We explore the five toxic behaviors a loving relationship simply cannot tolerate and the five non-negotiables every couple must maintain to thrive. From shifting out of "roommate syndrome" to the power of mutual submission, this is a deep dive into building a marriage that doesn't just survive the years but gets stronger through them.

In this episode, we discuss:

• The Killers of Intimacy: Why laziness, passive-aggressiveness, and manipulation are the "slow leaks" in a marriage.
• The Maturity Shift: How to stop thinking like a child and start using your words to affirm rather than attack.
• Walls vs. Safety: The danger of showing your body while hiding your heart, and how to earn (and offer) true trust.
• The Power of Submission: Redefining mutual submission as a military-grade strategy for covering each other's weaknesses.
• The Playfulness Dashboard: Why flirting, laughter, and trying new things are the indicators of a healthy relationship.

Are you ready to take your marriage to the next level? Remember, it doesn’t come cheap. The person you love the most should always cost you the most.

In this episode of The Leader’s Cut, Preston is joined by his wife, Holly Morrison, for a candid conversation about the walls that inhibit intimacy in marriage.

Together, they peel back the layers on why "co-existing" isn't the biblical standard for marriage. A thriving marriage doesn’t happen by accident; it is intentionally cultivated through vulnerability, grace, and a refusal to settle for the status quo. Holly and Preston share personal insights on reclaiming the marriage bed as a place of holy connection, breaking down the walls of "roommate syndrome," and cultivating a healthy, satisfying sex life.

In this episode, we discuss:

• Identifying "Intimacy Inhibitors": Recognizing the habits that quietly drift you apart.
• The Truth About Intimacy: Why it is far deeper than just a physical connection.
• Creating Emotional Safety: Practical ways to foster a secure environment for your spouse.
• Reclaiming Connection: How to find each other again after seasons of distance or "busyness."

If you’re ready to stop settling for a "roommate" dynamic and start building a thriving, intimate sex life the way God intended it to be, this episode is for you.
