b'When you\\u2019re setting goals, do you ask yourself who in your life directly contributes to whether or not you achieve that goal? No one succeeds alone \\u2013 but most people try to. One of the biggest mistakes we see people making is that they set goals by themselves, then they struggle throughout the year because the most important people in their life aren\\u2019t on the same page. Our guests Jake and Alyx Dreyfuss blocked off time for their first couples goal-setting retreat last year. In this episode, Jake and Alyx share the discussions they had, the changes that have occurred over the past year, and what they\\u2019re doing differently for this upcoming year.
