What happens when a Navy meteorologist navigates the storms and calms of marriage? 

Join us for an intimate conversation with my husband, Chris Tuggle, as we share our journey from a blind date at a San Francisco Giants game to a 12-year marriage built on love, laughter, and faith. Chris recalls how he never needed his backup list of conversation topics that day, setting the stage for a relationship characterized by genuine connection and shared values.

In our discussion, we unpack the challenges and rewards of prioritizing love amidst life's demands through a Christian lens. Chris and I explore how understanding and speaking each other's love languages have kept our partnership strong and resilient. By trusting in Jesus and grounding our marriage in faith, we’ve learned to navigate inevitable disappointments and avoid unrealistic expectations, ensuring our relationship thrives even in the toughest times.

As we reflect on our marriage's evolution, we emphasize the crucial roles of communication and spiritual alignment. Transitioning from reliance on parents to forming an independent family unit has tested us, but open dialogue and shared goals have been our anchors. By aligning our paths and keeping Christ at the center, we continue to support and uplift each other, hoping to inspire listeners with insights and encouragement for their own marriages.
