Married After Kids

Ep. 114: “I Don’t Want to Thank Him For THAT”


Listen Later

There are moments in marriage where you know appreciation would help, but you just do not want to give it. Maybe it feels forced, maybe you are frustrated, or maybe you are thinking, “he should just be doing this already.”


In this episode, I’m breaking down why appreciation can feel so difficult in certain moments and what is actually happening underneath that resistance. I talk about resentment, expectations, and the role appreciation plays in shifting dynamics, even when it feels undeserved. If you have ever struggled to acknowledge your partner without feeling annoyed or disconnected, this conversation will give you a different way to approach it.


Tune in to discover:


• Why appreciation can feel so hard to give

• The thoughts that block you from expressing gratitude

• How resentment impacts your willingness to acknowledge your partner

• What appreciation actually does in a relationship

• How to approach it in a way that feels more genuine
