Listen Later

Marriage doesn’t stay the same and it’s not supposed to. In this episode of The Shifted Podcast, Amira sits down with her husband, Sam, to talk honestly about what it takes to grow separately and still stay together after thirty years of marriage.

From meeting in 1992, marrying in 1994, raising three kids, and walking through health struggles, belief differences, and hard relationship challenges, Amira and Sam share how boundaries and self-respect reshaped their connection.

This conversation explores:

  • How to grow as individuals without drifting apart

  • Why boundaries create more intimacy, not less

  • The role of self-respect in long-term marriage

  • Navigating marriage challenges and change in midlife

  • A candid Q&A where Sam and Amira ask each other questions they’ve never said out loud

If you’ve ever wondered if marriage can survive growth, reinvention, and tough choices, this episode will give you hope and practical perspective.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

  • Why long-term relationships require evolution

  • How Gen X women are redefining marriage in midlife

  • The difference between “empowerment” and true self-respect

  • Practical examples of setting boundaries with your partner

  • How to rebuild connection after hard years in marriage
