Married After Kids

Ep. 110: The Moment That (Almost) Broke My Marriage


Listen Later

Maybe you have thought or even said out loud, “I can’t do this anymore”. We all know how challenging marriage can be, and trust me when I say I completely get it. Today I am sharing one of THE hardest moments in my marriage. The moment I felt the most uncertain. The moment I didn’t know if we were going to make it through.

 

In an effort to be more open and normalize the difficulties in marriage (yes - even as a marriage psychologist I still have difficulties in my marriage!), I am sharing my struggle that I’ve safely kept behind closed doors, until today. I will take you on my personal journey of how we overcame the “this isn’t working anymore” moment in our marriage.

 

We’re exploring:

  • A vulnerable story of when I wanted out of our marriage

  • Four steps we used (and still use today in difficult times!) to overcome the biggest challenge in our marriage we’ve ever had

  • What you can do to make your spouse feel confident in how they are supporting you

  • How to turn TO each other and work as a team when you’d rather figure things out on your own

  • What you can say and do for each other so you both feel better, faster
