Listen Later

Over the next few months, I’ll be mixing in some of our earlier Motherhood Meets Medicine interviews with new episodes. These ‘best of’ episodes are the most shared and listened to episodes of all time!


Here is today’s featured episode with Dr. Daryl Johnson, listen as she discusses keeping the spark alive after kids.


Relationships always require a lot of time and energy in order to be successful. This becomes extremely challenging once a couple has children because all the focus is directed towards them. It sometimes seems impossible to create balance between your relationship with your partner and time spent with the children. Dr. Daryl Johnson joins me on this episode to teach us how to do just that.


Dr. Daryl is a couples therapist, licensed professional counselor and psychologist in the Washington DC area. Dr. Daryl helps her clients break through the obstacles that seem to be holding them back in their relationships. She specializes in guiding singles and couples toward healthy romantic relationships. She recently released her first book titled Love and Other Stuff, The No Bullshit Guide to Relationships When Love isn't Enough.


In this episode we discuss:


Relationship challenges that parents face and how to deal with them.

Common issues couples struggle with.

Ways to create healthy expectations within your relationship.

Tips for how to keep the spark in your relationship.
