Today on the podcast, we’re joined by a couple who have weathered life’s challenges with grace, grit, and an unwavering commitment to each other.

Talitha Cummins and Ben Lucas have been together for over a decade, from Talitha’s career as a news anchor to Ben’s journey as a personal trainer and studio owner, and now both navigating exciting career pivots. Their story is one of growth, resilience, and deep mutual respect.

In this episode, Talitha speaks with remarkable honesty about her journey with alcoholism, while Ben shares how vulnerability and self-reflection have strengthened not only their relationship but their individual identities.
