8 ‘Normal’ Marriage Habits That Actually Lead to Divorce


Listen Later

What if some of the habits we brush off as “normal” in marriage are actually major red flags? In this episode, we’re breaking down an eye-opening article from Your Tango featuring insights from Emily Klear, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, on the eight seemingly small but toxic behaviors that can slowly erode a relationship.

From avoiding tough conversations about intimacy and finances to parenting conflicts and the silent damage of “phubbing” (choosing your phone over your partner), we’re diving into why these habits shouldn’t be ignored—and what you can do to address them before it’s too late.

Whether you’re married, in a long-term relationship, or just curious about what makes relationships thrive (or fall apart), this episode is packed with real talk and practical takeaways.

Listen now to learn what habits to watch out for—and how to strengthen your relationship before it's too late.
