    83: What’s Your Trust Archetype? How to Build a High-Trust Relationship
    Jul 9 2026
    Ellen continues the conversation about trust by moving from the seven domains of trust into the personal patterns each partner brings to their relationship.She introduces seven relationship trust archetypes that shape how people naturally build trust, where they may create strain, and what they need to become more intentional about in order to build a high-trust profile with their partner.Part 1: Trust Is PersonalTrust is not a single quality. It is built through seven domains: safety, security, caring, integrity, fidelity, reliability, and repair.Each partner brings their own expectations, history, strengths, and blind spots into the relationship.Ellen explains the idea of adaptive identity: the way we learn to show up based on our life experience, what feels authentic to us, and what we have learned gets rewarded or protected.Part 2: The Seven Relationship Trust ArchetypesEllen covers the seven archetypes and the gift each one brings into a relationship:The Traditionalist offers stability.The Nice Guy offers harmony.The Visionary offers expansiveness.The Engineer offers clarity.The Artist offers uniqueness.The Lover offers intimate intensity.The Hero offers support.Each gift is real and valuable, but every gift also has a shadow side. Those shadow sides can become the places where trust gets strained.Part 3: Building a High-Trust ProfileEllen brings the archetypes back to the seven trust domains and explains where each archetype tends to have natural trust strengths, and where more intention may be needed.The point is not to label yourself or put yourself in a box. The point is to understand how you naturally enter the relationship, where you already build trust, and where your partner may need something more from you.Building a high-trust profile does not mean becoming someone else. It means learning how to bring more intention to the trust domains that do not come as naturally.Key Takeaways:Your relationship archetype shapes how you naturally show up with your partner.Each archetype brings a real relational gift, but each gift also has a shadow side.Trust deficits often come from the places where your shadow side affects one or more trust domains.A high-trust profile is built by understanding your natural strengths and becoming more intentional where trust does not come as easily.Call to Action:Is trust one of your relationship superpowers? Do you want it to be?Reach out for the High-Trust Relationship Builder worksheet. The link is in the show notes, or send Ellen a message and she will get it to you.And don’t sleep on the Relationship Reset Call. It is quick, private, and free, and gives you a chance to work one-on-one with Ellen on something important to you.Closing Thoughts:When you understand the trust domains and your own relationship archetype, you stop guessing where things are breaking down and start building trust through intention.Resist labeling yourself as a single archetype. Instead, learn from all of them how to use your natural strengths to support your relationship, and then pay attention to the places where your partner may need something more from you.Support & Resources:Ellen invites listeners to share their thoughts, either in the P3 Insider's Community or directly with her via email.

  • 82: Why Being Faithful Doesn’t Buy Trust in Your Relationship

    82: Why Being Faithful Doesn’t Buy Trust in Your Relationship
    Jun 25 2026
    In this episode of Make More Love, Ellen takes on one of the most misunderstood issues in long-term relationships: trust.Most people think about trust in terms of the obvious violations — betrayal, secrets, lies, and affairs. But trust can also erode through the repeated daily letdowns that make a partner feel unsafe, uninformed, dismissed, unsupported, or unable to rely on the relationship.Ellen breaks trust down into seven practical domains: Safety, Security, Caring, Integrity, Fidelity, Reliability, and Repair. Because if you want to rebuild trust, you first have to know where it is breaking down.Part 1: The Trust Deficit In the Big PictureEllen opens by looking at the larger “trust deficit” we see in society and connects it to what happens inside many business-owner marriages. A trust deficit is not always caused by one major betrayal. It can also build slowly when one partner’s need to feel safe, connected, informed, and secure is not consistently being met.She also explains why many business owners feel confused when their partner does not experience them as trustworthy, especially when they have avoided what Ellen calls the Fatal Four: betrayal, secrets, lies, and affairs.Part 2: The Seven Domains of TrustTrust is not one vague feeling, and it is not an all-or-nothing question. Ellen breaks it into seven domains that help couples identify exactly where trust is strong, where it is strained, and what needs attention.The seven domains are:Safety — Can I trust that I will not be physically harmed, threatened, or deprived of basic needs?Security — Can I trust that I am informed about money, financial risk, and the decisions that affect our shared life?Caring — Can I trust that my feelings, concerns, and reality will be treated with basic respect?Integrity — Can I trust you to be honest when it is not easy to be honest?Fidelity — Can I trust you to honor the sexual, romantic, and emotional agreements of the relationship?Reliability — Can I trust that you will do what you say you will do?Repair — Can I trust that when something breaks, we will come back together, take accountability, and work the problem?Part 3: Why Fidelity Alone Does Not Create TrustEllen shares a real-life example of a client who chose her husband partly because she knew he would never cheat. But over time, she realized that sexual fidelity did not mean the relationship was broadly trustworthy.There were trust deficits in safety, security, integrity, reliability, and repair. The marriage looked intact from the outside, but the actual connection was weak because trust was weak in so many places.The point is clear: you can be sexually faithful and still have a serious trust problem if you are failing at honesty, reliability, repair, financial transparency, or emotional care.Key Takeaways:Trust is not binary. It is not as simple as “you trust me or you don’t.”Being faithful matters, but fidelity is only one domain of trust. The seven domains of trust give couples a more practical way to identify what is actually breaking down.Repeated small letdowns can create real damage when they stack up without repair.Apologies do not rebuild trust if they are not accompanied by changed behavior.Business owners need to understand that business decisions can affect their spouse’s sense of safety, security, and trust.Call to Action:Now here’s something for you to think about:Which domain of trust is strongest in your relationship right now, and how do you know?Which one is weakest, and why do you think it is weak?Which one, if repaired, would change the whole tone of your relationship?And what is one step you could take to start repairing that one?If you are struggling with this, set up a free Relationship Reset Call with Ellen, and work through the issue together. The call is quick, private, and designed to give you a single tangible next step you can take to sort out a relationship problem.Go to relationshipresetcall.com to set up a time.Closing Thoughts:Trust is not a yes or no question.It is about whether the relationship consistently helps both partners feel safe, connected, informed, secure, respected, and able to rely on each other.When you can name where trust is breaking down, you have a much better chance of repairing the right thing.Next Time on Make More Love:Ellen will take this topic one step further and introduce the seven Trust Archetypes. These archetypes will help you identify your natural trust tendencies, where you already show up as trustworthy, and where you may need to build additional skills to create a more balanced trust profile.Support & Resources:Ellen invites listeners to share their thoughts, either in the P3 Insider's Community on Facebook or directly with her via email. Or, for one-on-one brainstorming on a specific situation, listeners can set up a time on Ellen's calendar for a free Relationship Reset Call.Or, for immediate insights, take the Relationship Dynamics Scorecard: a fast, ...

    81: Emotional Fitness in Practice: How to Find Yourself Again with Shaun Zetlin
    May 28 2026
    Ellen continues her conversation with Shaun Zetlin, founder of Zetlin Fitness and author of Emotional Fitness. In Part 1, Ellen and Shaun focused on the philosophy and psychology of emotional fitness. In Part 2, they move into the practical side: choosing the right support, using Shaun’s five mantras, and understanding how emotional fitness shows up inside a relationship. Part 1: Choosing the Right SupportEllen shares her own experience with personal training and what she learned from working with trainers who were both helpful and imperfect. Shaun explains why a good trainer needs more than knowledge of anatomy or motivation. The right trainer listens, adapts, understands the whole person, and helps clients keep going for the long run.Part 2: Shaun’s Five Mantras for Emotional FitnessShaun walks through the five master mantras from his book Emotional Fitness: accepting your path, knowing you are worthy, knowing you are empowered, lowering the volume, and being your biggest fan. Ellen and Shaun discuss how old pain, shame, fear, and inherited beliefs can shape the way people think, feel, move, and connect.Part 3: 80 Boxes and Finding Your Way BackShaun shares the story of “80 boxes,” a phrase he and his wife Adrienne use to remind each other that they can get through hard moments together. Ellen connects this to the private language long-term couples build over time, and how inside jokes, memories, rituals, and shared physical experiences can help partners reconnect.Key Takeaways:Cultivate allies who value you as a whole person. Whether it’s a trainer, therapist, coach, or any other expert, don’t just settle. Take the time to talk to a few people and find the one who really gets you. These are people who will be pushing you, challenging you, and helping you see things you may not see on your own, so you need to be able to trust them.Shaun’s five mantras give you a clear starting point for letting go of old patterns. A lot of us carry perceptions from our past about who we are and what we deserve. Old anger, fear, or shame can anchor you and steal your vitality if you don’t deal with them.There may be more value than you realize in revisiting what you and your partner have shared over the years. Inside jokes, memories, and little rituals can help you find your way back to each other. Those past connections can sometimes cut through the resentments that led to the disconnect and bring the good times back into the present.Call to Action:If this conversation made you think about your own vitality, emotional patterns, or relationship, Ellen invites you to book a free Relationship Reset Call. It is a private working call designed to help you get a clearer read on what is draining you, where you are disconnected, and what kind of support could help.Book your call at: relationshipresetcall.comClosing Thoughts:Ellen shares resources from the conversation, including Shaun’s book Emotional Fitness, Shaun’s coordinates for anyone interested in working with him directly, and Boston Personal Training for listeners in the Boston MetroWest area who are looking for in-person training with someone who checks all the boxes.Support & Resources: Ellen invites listeners to share their thoughts, either in the P3 Insider's Community or directly with her via email.
