Harville Hendrix, Ph.D. and Helen LaKelly Hunt, Ph.D believe that how we interact with each other, in all our contexts—family, workplace, schools, etc.—is the key to our emotional, physical and economic well-being and to the well-being of our children and society. They vision the possibility of shifting from the age of the individual to the age of relationship; when "relationship" rather than the "individual" will be the primary value system of culture.

To make relational information and skills available to everyone, Harville and Helen co- initiated Imago Relationships International as a training institute for couples therapists, Relationships First® as a collaborative mission to change the cultural value system, and Safe Conversations® as an experiment to raise the joy index of a whole city, making the work available in workshops, training programs, lectures, seminars and books.

Harville and Helen continue to co-create Imago Relationship Theory and Therapy and make it available in workshops, training programs, lectures, seminars and books. Over 1200 Imago therapists practice in 37 countries. Their professional partnership has produced 10 books including three NYT best sellers (Getting the Love You Want, Keeping the Love You Find, and Giving the Love that Heals). Their latest book is The Space Between (2017). They are working on a new professional text on Imago theory and therapy. In addition, a 30th anniversary edition of Getting the Love You Want will launch in 2018.

Harville is a couple's therapist with over 40 years' experience as an educator, clinical trainer and lecturer whose work has been on Oprah 17 times. In addition to Helen's partnership with her husband in the co-creation of Imago, she is sole author of Faith and Feminism and And the Spirit Moved Them. She was installed in the Women's Hall of Fame for her leadership in the global women's movement.

Helen and Harville have been married for over 30 years, have six children, and reside in Dallas, Texas.

Best selling author and empowerment strategist JJ Flizanes hosts Nutrition & Alternative Medicine, a space where the often rigid lines between conventional health advice and holistic practices begin to blur. Here, the conversation moves beyond simple diet plans to explore the interconnected systems of the body, with a particular focus on functional medicine and gut health as foundational elements. Each episode is built on the idea that true wellness requires looking at the whole person-physical, mental, and environmental. You’ll hear discussions that dive into the practicalities of gluten-free or paleo living, not as fleeting trends, but as potential tools for healing. The dialogue extends to the principles of acupuncture, Chinese medicine, and homeopathy, examining how these ancient and alternative modalities can complement modern approaches to issues like hormone balance, sustainable weight management, and chronic fatigue. This isn't just about information; it's about translating that knowledge into actionable strategies for your own life. The podcast serves as a resource for anyone feeling overwhelmed by conflicting health messages, offering clarity and inspiration on everything from the food on your plate to the energy in your living space. Tune in for thoughtful explorations that empower you to take an active, informed role in your own well-being journey, discovering how alternative paths and nutritional wisdom can work together to foster lasting health.
