On this week's episode, we're gonna be talking about the importance of transparent, healthy, honest communication in marriage.

A lot of times we think about the big/"flashy"/obvious parts of marriage to diagnose how we're doing –frequency of date nights away from the kids, weekends away, etc... It's actually about how we're communicating and engaging each other in the everyday mundane that makes the biggest impact on the overall health of our marriage

Plenty of people get divorced after consistent date nights. They date a lot, but fail to focus on the essential communication skills that are necessary for a healthy marriage.

Let's talk about how you can practically focus on the daily, mundane conversations!
