Married After Kids

Ep. 99: Come Inside Our Biggest Argument Yet


Listen Later

Today’s episode feels especially vulnerable. I’m inviting you inside a real argument my spouse and I are currently in, one we have not figured out yet. Not a story from the past, not something neatly resolved, but the messy middle of a conflict that feels deeply personal and hard to navigate.


I’m sharing this because so many couples have at least one topic that feels insurmountable, where emotions run high, trust feels shaky, and it seems impossible to talk without things blowing up. In this episode, I walk you through what this kind of argument actually looks like in real life, why these conflicts are so hard to move through, and what we are doing right now to try to handle it differently.


Tune in to discover:


• Why some arguments feel deeply personal and hard to resolve

• How avoidance and defensiveness keep couples stuck in the same cycle

• What it takes to rebuild trust around an off-limits topic

• Why slowing conversations down can create more progress over time

• The role validation and structure play in working through big conflicts
