Do you struggle getting on the same page with your spouse in times of struggle? On today’s episode, we discuss an issue that a lot of parents struggle with, and it’s none other than actually parenting.

How do you get on the same page regarding parenting with your spouse?

What can I do to repair a crumbling marriage?

How can I become a better role model to my kids and build a stronger bond with them?

How can I continue to raise my kids properly during the shutdown?

James and Beth Deppa welcome the owners of Badass Family Coaching, Matthew and Kimberly Mullin. They have been married 19 years and have 3 young children.

No matter how much you and your partner love each other, when kids enter the equation, it can become difficult to maintain that same level of attention and compassion. This leads to a slippery slope in your marriage that could end badly unless you become aware and nip it in the bud as soon as possible. Matthew and Kimberly tells us that it all starts with both parents getting on the same page, and working from there.

2 MAJOR POINTS DISCUSSED

●  When marital problems arise, you have to work on yourself before you can work together. Ego plays a huge role in most conflicts, and it’s no different—though it’s potentially a more dangerous factor—in marriage. Communication and empathy are huge keys in solving marital issues; but how can you properly communicate with and empathize with your significant other if you’re unable to fully admit, out loud, your own faults? Dig deep and come to terms with what your flaws are and let your husband or wife know that you’re aware, and that you’re willing to change. It’s only when you’re able to be truly humble and honest with each other that you can both take steps to address the issue together.

●  Put in the effort to make each other feel appreciated. Being married doesn’t mean that both spouses have to give 50% each to make things work. Rather, marriage requires 100% from both spouses. When problems arise, it almost doesn’t matter whose fault it was. Arguing will only cause you to drift apart, and the conflict will never be resolved regardless of who initially made a mistake. Both will feel unappreciated. You need to give to get. You both have to come together  and see things from each other’s point of view. That’s when you come to an understanding, figure out how to solve the problem, and thank each other afterwards. You’ll also come to appreciate each other more after the fact.
