Avoiding Birthday Blues & Blowouts


Listen Later

Birthdays—love them or dread them, they can be a surprisingly tense topic in marriage. 🎂 From unspoken expectations to last-minute letdowns, these special days often carry more emotional weight than we realize. In this episode, we’re diving into the highs and lows of celebrating birthdays with your spouse, sharing our own birthday wins and major misses over the years.

You’ll hear about:
 ✅ The silent pressure & expectations that often ruin birthdays
 ✅ Why no one should be the designated party planner for life 🎉
✅ How to openly communicate what you actually want for your birthday (without disappointment)
✅ A simple habit that can transform how you and your spouse handle celebrations

If birthdays have ever felt like a minefield in your marriage, this episode is for you! Plus, we share some funny personal stories—including the time Aaron got Christmas-colored storage bins for Jenna as a birthday gift. 😬

Listen in and learn how to make birthdays a joy instead of a battle!

What’s inside?

✅ 6 bite-sized video sessions (30 min each)
