Jealousy is one of the most human emotions there is, and for many women it gets louder in midlife. In this episode, Jane answers a question from Sandy, a listener who just turned 50. 

A new neighbor has moved in who seems to have everything: a "perfect" body, a successful husband, plenty of money, and a warm welcome from Sandy's friends. Sandy feels tortured, can't stop thinking about her, and feels ridiculous for feeling this way.

Jane explains why jealousy isn't the neighbor's fault, how the Self-Coaching Model shows that our thoughts create the feeling, and how to move from scarcity to abundance. She also shares a five-step process you can use the next time the sting hits.

Someone else's blessing isn't a withdrawal from your account. There is enough, for her and for you.

The leaves are turning, the pumpkin spice candle is burning, and somewhere in your house the TV has been claimed for football. 🏈

Whether your household lives and breathes football from September to February or you couldn't care less, this episode isn't really about the game. It's about what happens in a marriage when one person is all in and the other is along for the ride (or not on the ride at all).

In this lighter, fall-themed episode, Christian marriage coach Jane shares four things football season, or any seasonal tradition, can reveal about your marriage, plus a simple two-minute homework assignment that can save you a whole lot of frustration and resentment.

If you just finished the marriage series with us, consider this your exhale. If you're new, welcome, friend. You're in the right place.

In this episode, you'll learn:

This week's homework: Have a two-minute conversation before Saturday: "What does this weekend look like for you? Which games matter most? Here's what I'd love if it works…"

Scripture: Ecclesiastes 4:9, "Two are better than one, because they have a good return for their labor."

Is your marriage ready for a reset?

What happens when a couple becomes really good at managing life together but forgets to intentionally live life together?

You raise the kids. You manage the schedules. You go to work, attend church, pay the bills, take care of the house, and keep everything moving.

And then one day, the kids are older. The house is quieter. Your careers change. The busy seasons begin to slow down.

And you look across the table at the person you've been married to for 25 or 30 years and wonder:

“What are we building now?”

“What are we moving toward?”

“What is our marriage actually for?”

In this final episode of my six-part series on building a connected marriage, we're talking about shared purpose, -and why having a shared vision, shared values, and something meaningful to move toward together can profoundly strengthen your marriage.

I'll share a deeply personal story from my husband's family during World War II about Kees and Christina and the little Jewish girl they risked everything to protect. Their story is a powerful example of what can happen when two people are bound together by something bigger than themselves.

We'll also explore:

And I'll leave you with one question I hope you and your spouse will sit with:

Your shared purpose doesn't have to be a grand calling. It might be raising children who know they are loved and know God, creating a welcoming home, serving your community, supporting each other's dreams, creating a family legacy, or simply becoming the kind of couple whose marriage blesses the people around them.

Your purpose is personal and unique to you as a couple.

And you don't have to have all the answers today.

You can start with a conversation.

What matters most to us?

What do we want our marriage to stand for?

Who do we want to bless?

What kind of legacy do we want to leave?

And what do we want to experience together while we're here?

If you've been listening to this six-part series and realizing that you and your spouse could use a reset, I'd love to invite you to my free marriage masterclass:

This is designed to be a meaningful date night for the two of you, -an evening of turning toward each other, noticing what may have been lost, and beginning to create a marriage you love coming home to.

Come as you are. You don't need a perfect marriage. You simply need to be willing to turn toward each other.

Join Jane for her FREE Marriage Masterclass:

"FIND EACH OTHER AGAIN" A fun and informative 60-minute workshop to help you and your partner learn to reconnect.

You'll discover why loving couples can lose emotional connection, the patterns that create distance, and simple shifts that can help you begin finding your way back to each other.

And if you can, come with your spouse.

Make it a date night. Sit beside each other. Give your marriage one hour of your attention, -not because your marriage is broken, but because it matters.

What happens when you still love your spouse, but you don’t really like your marriage anymore?

After years of raising children, managing a home, working, solving problems, and navigating life together, many couples slowly become good partners but stop being lovers, friends, and deeply connected companions.

That’s exactly where Jane Copier found herself in her own marriage.

In this episode of Happy in the Middle, Jane shares the vulnerable story of realizing that she loved her husband but didn’t want to spend the rest of her life in the marriage they had created. Rather than settling for emotional distance, she and her husband made the courageous decision to let their old marriage die so they could intentionally create something new.

Jane explores what it really takes to restore intimacy, including the often-overlooked connection between the thoughts we think about our spouse, the feelings those thoughts create, and the actions we take toward them.

You’ll discover why proximity isn’t intimacy, why resentment can change the way we see our spouse, and how becoming genuinely curious about the person your spouse has become can begin to bring aliveness back into your relationship.

Most importantly, Jane offers hope: a cold marriage isn't necessarily a dead marriage. You may not be able to recreate the marriage you had when you were younger, but you can create a new marriage that is more intentional, honest, connected, playful, and intimate.

If you've been thinking, “This is us,” Jane invites you to join her free Marriage Masterclass, Why Good Couples Slowly Grow Apart, where she'll unpack why loving couples drift apart, and the simple habits that can help them find each other again.

Because sometimes the marriage doesn't need to end, the old version of the marriage does.

And something better can take its place.

Have you ever looked at your husband and thought, “I love him… but I don't know if I actually like him anymore?”

Maybe you still love each other, but somewhere along the way, your marriage became more about managing life than enjoying life together. Between kids, work, schedules, responsibilities, bills, and the endless demands of daily life, you may find yourself wondering:

When did we stop being friends?

In this episode, Christian Marriage Coach Jane Copier shares a powerful perspective on how to rebuild friendship and emotional connection in your marriage. You'll learn why the way you feel about your spouse is deeply influenced by the thoughts you repeatedly think about them, -and how the stories you tell yourself can either create distance or help you reconnect.

This is not about pretending your marriage is perfect or ignoring real problems. It's about becoming aware of negative thought patterns, choosing to see the whole person you married, and intentionally creating new opportunities for fondness, admiration, curiosity, laughter, and connection.

In this episode, you'll learn:

Jane also shares the powerful reminder from Proverbs 17:17:

“A friend loveth at all times.”

What might change if you began intentionally looking for what you appreciate about your spouse instead of continually collecting evidence against them?

Sometimes friendship doesn't return to a marriage in one grand moment.

Sometimes it comes back one thought at a time. One expression of gratitude. One shared laugh. One memory. One conversation. One date.

What does it really mean to feel emotionally safe with your spouse?

In this episode, Jane Copier, The Christian Marriage Coach, explores why emotional safety is one of the most important foundations of a connected, intimate marriage. 

Learn what emotional safety is, what couples often misunderstand about it, what destroys it, -and five practical ways to create more safety, trust, vulnerability, and connection in your relationship.

Have you ever wanted to tell your spouse something important, -but stopped yourself because you were afraid of how they would respond?

Maybe you're tired of the defensiveness, the arguments, or the feeling that you have to carefully choose your words.

You may love each other deeply and still struggle to feel emotionally safe in your marriage.

Emotional safety isn't about never disagreeing, avoiding difficult conversations, or making sure your spouse never feels uncomfortable. It's about creating a relationship where both people can be honest, vulnerable, imperfect, and different while still feeling loved, respected, and valued.

Jane explores:

You'll also receive a simple Marriage Reset exercise you can do with your spouse this week to begin creating more openness, trust, and connection.

Because a strong marriage isn't one where you never hurt each other.

It's one where you know how to find your way back to each other.

Have you ever looked at your spouse and thought, “I love you… so why don't I feel as close to you anymore?”

You're still married. You still love each other. You're raising your family, managing the household, making plans, and showing up for life.

But somewhere along the way, something changed.

You haven't necessarily fallen out of love.

You may have simply drifted apart.

In this episode of Happy in the Middle, we explore why good couples can slowly become emotionally disconnected, -and why that doesn't necessarily mean your marriage is broken.

Drawing on research from relationship experts John and Julie Gottman, I'll explain the importance of bids for connection, the tiny everyday moments when we reach for our spouse's attention, affection, understanding, or companionship. 

We'll also explore why so many marital problems aren't actually problems we can permanently solve… and why that's okay!

Most importantly, this episode offers hope.

Your marriage may not be broken. You may simply need to find your way back to each other.

Listen in and learn practical ways to begin reconnecting, including one simple question you can ask your spouse today:

“What is one tiny way I can turn toward my spouse?”

This episode is the first in a six-part series exploring the foundations of a deeply connected marriage, including emotional safety, communication, friendship, intentional connection, and shared values, vision, and purpose, -all grounded in faith in Jesus Christ.
