About this listen
Discover your true self and find hope beyond your messy relationships!
As a mental health therapist, Judy prepares to see her next client. As a wife, she falls apart in the midst of her husband’s psychosis. His inpatient psychiatrist says, “This is going to be a hard case.”
Judy’s first marriage of 29 years ended in divorce after toxic patterns of chronic bitterness. Facing the shame of her past and mothering four children, she recognizes divine invitations toward her authentic self. After four years into a new marriage with her beloved dance partner, Judy suddenly faces frightful realities.
Can Judy’s second marriage recover from damage caused by his psychosis?
Beyond Messy Relationships is not only an intense and dramatic memoir, it’s a mix of psychological wisdom and spiritual inspiration that helps listeners make sense of their deep feelings.
In Beyond Messy Relationships, listeners will:
- Discover they’re not alone as they resonate with the messy relationships of a licensed professional counselor
- Learn a simple formula of AIR to experience freedom beyond the messes
- Connect the dots from their past to their present
- Overcome shame so they can experience the freedom they long for
Within Beyond Messy Relationships, listeners will find hope through the formula of breathing in fresh AIR: awareness, intentionality, and risks and recognize divine invitations beyond the messes.
Finding your authentic self is worth the journey.

Her friend Adam Grant, a psychologist at Wharton, told her there are concrete steps people can take to recover and rebound from life-shattering experiences. We are not born with a fixed amount of resilience. It is a muscle that everyone can build.

Laila Tarraf was the chief people officer for Peet’s Coffee and Tea, the iconic Berkeley coffee roaster, but she had a secret: She was failing in the most important relationships in her life. Yes, she was a strong and effective business leader, the successful daughter of immigrants, and the mother of a toddler, but she was disconnected from her own feelings and had little patience for those of others. All that changed, however, when three of the people most important to her - her husband, father, and mother - died in quick succession.

Through her remarkable journey, we see more clearly the light that can shine through our own broken places and ultimately heal us: body, mind, and soul.

Story
I'd Like You More If You Were More like Me takes on one of life's most important questions: How can I get closer to God and other people? We were created for deep connections. When people have deep connections, says John Ortberg, they win in life. When they don't have deep connections, they cannot win in life. I'd Like You More If You Were More like Me offers help in overcoming one of the biggest obstacles to making deep connections: the fact that we're so different. Different from God and different from each other.

Story
What does it mean to be an adult? In the 20th century, psychologists came up with five markers of adulthood: finish your education, get a job, leave home, marry, and have children. Since then, every generation has been held to those same markers. Yet so much has changed about the world and living in it since that sequence was formulated. All of those markers are choices, and they’re all valid, but any one person’s choices along those lines do not make them more or less an adult.

If you think your relationship is messed up...
I knew that would grab your attention!
Judy, thank you for being so vonerable in this book. You have such a gentle spirit. There are NO easy answers and no one is perfect. All we actually can do is try to work through life as best we can. I know there is way more to these stories and you did not take either of your marriage commitments lightly. I truly appreciate you sharing these stories with us. You give me hope.
