Becoming Your Best | The Principles of Highly Successful Leaders

Episode 380 - Married Happily Ever After with Dr. Frieda Birnbaum


Listen Later

Most of us misunderstood the "and they lived happily ever after" phrase; it doesn't mean they never argued or had different thoughts on the same matter. It means they grew together, supported each other, and made the other person's happiness their own.


Today, I'm joined by the inspiring Dr. Frieda Birnbaum, a National Media Psychologist and Personality, fellow podcaster Host of The Dr. Frieda Show, sought-after International Speaker, and Author of "Life Begins at 60: A New View on Motherhood, Marriage, and Reinventing Ourselves."


We had a fantastic conversation about what makes couples stay together, the foundations of a happy marriage (not perfect), and how emotional prenups can prevent marriages from ending. Dr. Frieda also shared details of her background, what inspired her to focus on couples' happiness, what makes an effective emotional prenup, and the importance of creating personal space in a relationship.


Tune in to Episode 380 and discover the foundations of a happily ever after marriage.
