Summer is supposed to feel fun, relaxing, and full of family memories. But for many couples, it can also bring more stress, more mental load, and more opportunities for conflict. Between changing schedules, childcare logistics, vacations, and the constant disruption of routines, summer can put even strong marriages to the test.

In this episode, I’m breaking down the biggest reasons marriages tend to struggle during the summer months and what you can do to avoid those common pitfalls. We talk about transitions, mental load, shifting household systems, and how to be proactive instead of waiting until frustration and resentment start building.

Tune in to discover:

• Why summer can be surprisingly hard on marriages

• How changing routines impact connection and conflict

• The hidden mental load that comes with summer break

• Why your usual systems may stop working during this season

• How to protect your marriage before problems start
