A Woman's Perspective: Bridging Disconnection in Marriage


Listen Later

Episode #1070

If your marriage feels more like a business arrangement than a real partnership, you're not imagining it and you're definitely not alone. In this episode, Doug sits down with his wife Erin to unpack what disconnection looks and feels like from a woman's perspective.

They get real about how so many couples slowly drift apart, even when everything looks fine on the outside. Erin shares what's happening under the surface when a woman pulls away, why she might seem cold, distant, or buried in her phone, and what she's actually craving instead.

This isn't theory. It's not a lecture. It's two people sharing what it's really like when the spark fades, and what can help bring it back. They talk about the quiet resentment that builds over time, how to spot the signs that things are slipping, and how to approach your partner in a way that opens the door to real connection again, not more conflict or shutdown.

If you're feeling stuck, or you just know you're capable of more than a "meh" marriage, this is your starting point. You'll hear the small things that make a big difference, like how your energy impacts her more than your words. They also talk about what most men miss during postpartum and perimenopause that can quietly break the bond.

It's honest, raw, and grounded in real experience, not fluff or surface-level tips. There's no sugarcoating, just clarity on what it takes to shift from surviving to actually enjoying your relationship again. And if you're tired of guessing or walking on eggshells, this episode gives you a clearer way forward.
