Married After Kids

Ep. 214: My Marriage Is In A Rut Right Now…


Listen Later

You know I always keep it real with you, and this episode is no different—my marriage is in a rut. Not in crisis, not in shutdown, but just… off. More bickering, more distance, less connection. And if I’m being honest, it’s been really hard.


In this episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on what’s going on, why I think we got here, and what we’re doing to climb out of it. Because ruts are part of every relationship, and they don’t mean your marriage is broken. But they do require intention, support, and some solid tools to move through them.


If you’ve ever felt like your marriage was stuck in a harder season, I hope this one gives you encouragement and the clarity to take a step forward.


Tune in to discover:

  • Why even strong couples end up in ruts (and what causes them)
  • What “safe haven abuse” is and how it shows up in everyday stress
  • Why systemic stress after big life transitions (like having kids) can tank your connection
  • The daily habits and conversations that help us reset and reconnect
  • A brand new tool I created to help you build (or rebuild) the emotional support system your marriage needs
