We all get triggered.
 Sometimes it’s a tone, a look, or a comment that lands harder than it should. But those moments usually have less to do with what’s happening right now—and everything to do with something deeper.

In this episode, we open up about the times we’ve been triggered in our marriage and what those moments have taught us about ourselves. It’s not easy to talk about, but it’s real, it’s raw, and it’s probably something every couple will relate to.

We unpack how our triggers are connected to old stories, past experiences, and unmet expectations that keep showing up in new ways. More importantly, we talk about how awareness can transform those reactions into understanding—and turn frustration into connection.

This conversation isn’t about perfection. It’s about learning to pause before reacting, to own what’s yours, and to choose growth over blame.

In this episode, we explore:

  • The hidden roots behind emotional triggers in marriage
  • Why conflict often reveals what’s unhealed inside us
  • How to communicate through tension without making things worse
  • The difference between reacting to protect yourself and responding to connect
  • What it really looks like to create safety and self-awareness in a relationship

If you’ve ever thought, “Why do I keep reacting like this?”—this one’s for you.
