Sadia Jalali, LMFT from Muslim Bliss joins us today to talk about how to develop ourselves before and during marriage in order to make it work. Gone are the days when marriage was the panacea for all things: mental illness, neurodiversity, land or money disputes, homosexuality.....marriage is a blessing but it's not a cure. In fact, there are so many cultural approaches to marriage that do not jive both Islamically, or for Americans raising Americans. Let's start approaching it with realistic expectations and not with the fantasy-driven views that our mother cultures often taught us. We break the cycles of trauma here today.
