A Letter to the Wife Wanting a Marriage That Lasts a Lifetime // Kathryn Whitaker
In this third episode of the Letters to Wives season, my guest is Kathryn Whitaker. She’s been married to her husband, Scott, for almost thirty years. We’re talking about the advice she wishes she would go back and give herself, how hard seasons have impacted her marriage, and what she’s looking forward to in her marriage as her kids all grow up and leave the house.
She’s also giving her advice on how to disagree with your spouse in a way that still honors them and your marriage, as well as when and how to reach out to a good marriage therapist for help healing your marriage.
So, if you’re looking for advice and encouragement when it comes to building a marriage that not only lasts, but is truly joyful, life-giving, and authentic, sister, this letter is for you.
Topics we cover:
Kathryn’s story as a Catholic woman
The advice Kathryn would give to herself at the beginning of her relationship
How a 44 day NICU stay imploded Kathryn’s marriage and how she and Scott have found healing
How to make time to connect with your spouse so you don’t wake up twenty years from now realizing you don’t know your spouse
