A proposito di questo titolo

Think long distance relationships never work? Think again! In Indepartners, two behavioral scientists talk about the advantages and opportunities that come with a permanent, loving relationship – that happens to take place in two different cities.

Dr. Lisa Finkelstein and Dr. Kurt Kraiger have successfully navigated their careers while being, in their words, the happiest couple they know. As Lisa and Kurt explore the dynamics of love at a distance, couples living apart or living together will discover ways to be more intentional and get the most out of their relationships – and their personal lives.

Listen as Lisa and Kurt explore topics like intentionality, communication, and the value of rituals over holidays in a 30-minute format combining personal experience, humor, and relatable examples.
New episodes will drop on the 14th of each month.

  • You Got Questions? We Got Answers!
    Nov 17 2025

    And that’s a wrap! After nine episodes of deep dives and wonderful guests, Kurt and Lisa hang out together (in the same studio!) to dish about the season and answer listener questions. In their most unscripted episode yet, the indepartners each took a few notes on listener questions, but had no idea what the other was going to say. Find out where they agree, where they disagree, and what they learned from their conversations this season.

    Kurt and Lisa are so incredibly grateful to the listeners who provided questions and to all of you who listened in this season (from 417 cities and 36 countries!).

    Season Two will launch in 2026. Have any ideas for new topics? Want to appear on the pod? Please reach out!


    Thanks for listening!

  • From George Glass to Jimmy Crafts: Michelle and Jim’s Story
    Oct 14 2025

    We are thrilled to bring you another interview with some Indepartners with a twist! Michelle and Jim were high school sweethearts who always dreamed of big careers in broadcasting and journalism and promised to support each other in reaching their dreams, even if it meant having to be apart. That’s just what they did. After attending college together, Michelle climbed the ladder in radio broadcasting and Jim in sports writing. They have moved in and out of indepartnership, spending stretches of time in separate states and other stretches of time in the same household.

    Michelle and Jim share with us the lessons they’ve learned over time in managing and thriving with this dynamic lifestyle – the ups, the downs, and one of the most hilarious rituals we’ve ever heard of. We know you will enjoy this delightful, heartfelt, and humorous interview.
