Carl and Heather Present

Episode 83: Engaged? Listen To This Before You Walk Down The Aisle


Listen Later

If you’re engaged—or know someone who is—this might be one of the most important conversations you hear before marriage.

Because most marriages don’t fall apart in a moment…
 they drift slowly through poor communication and unresolved conflict. 

In this episode, Carl and Heather walk through five essential conversations every couple needs to have before saying “I do.”

This isn’t about planning a wedding—
 it’s about preparing for a lifetime.

In this episode, we cover:

  •  How to build a shared purpose and direction
  •  How to understand and improve your communication
  •  How to handle conflict and repair in a healthy way 
  •  What real intimacy actually looks like 
  •  How to clarify expectations around money, roles, and family

A simple truth:

You don’t drift into a strong marriage—
 you build one on purpose.

Important note:

This episode is a tool—but it’s not a substitute for biblical premarital counseling.
If you’re getting married, don’t skip that step.
