In this episode of Love Isn’t Enough with Joree Rose and Dr. John Schinnerer, we are joined by therapist, relationship expert, and author Elizabeth Earnshaw to discuss how stress impacts couples and what we can do about it. Elizabeth’s new book, Till Stress Do Us Part, explores how daily pressures—whether from work, parenting, finances, or other challenges—can erode connection and create conflict in relationships.

We dive into:    

• The most common ways stress affects couples and why many don’t recognize it.

• How unspoken stress leads to resentment, miscommunication, and emotional distance.

• Practical tools for managing stress individually and as a couple.

• How to foster emotional safety and connection, even in challenging times.

• Key insights from Till Stress Do Us Part that can help transform your relationship.

If you’ve ever felt like stress is pulling you and your partner apart, this conversation is for you. Tune in for valuable strategies to navigate life’s pressures while maintaining a strong, healthy relationship.
