It\\u2019s week three of our series exploring spacious relationships and I\\u2019m telling you, this one is just as fabulous as the first two! This week I welcome Susan Quiriconi, a new-to-me sweet friend who generously shares the wisdom she\\u2019s gained through personal as well as professional experiences. As I often do when I have such deeply rich people on the show, we covered a lot of ground. Let\\u2019s start with how Susie and her husband Roy are beating the odds with their 45 year marriage as it is Susie\\u2019s 3rd and Roy\'s 2nd. Susie says their relationship continues to grow in what they accept is the final chapter of their lives. We talk a lot about how to have a successful blended family and we explore key elements to a healthy marriage no matter what time around it is. She talks about the importance of adventure (and what that means to them), the importance of looking at self and both people taking 100% of the responsibility in the success of the relationship as well as the importance of having an individual self beyond the marriage. Susie and her husband are living in a unique part of the world right now as two years ago, at the age of 77 and 85 they decided to continue their life of adventure together by moving to a beautiful retirement community in Mexico. We talked a lot about healthy community and the beauty of friendship through the years and across the miles. Once again, it\\u2019s a "can\\u2019t miss" episode with something for everyone! Join us now as we begin to create space...
