In today's episode, I'm debunking the myth that sacrificing more of what you want will eventually bring you happiness. In fact, the opposite is true. If you keep sacrificing for the sake of your marriage or your family, you will just get resentful and that kills any chance you have of ever being happy.

If you want to know what to do when you have sacrificed too much and you feel resentful, be sure to register for the Ditch Decades of Resentment Webclass I'm hosting on Thursday, December 8th. Get all the details and sign up here: https://secretsofhappilyeverafter.com/resentmentwebclass.

In today's episode, I'm talking about how compromise is holding you back and destroying your intimacy and connection. Everytime you compromise, you are giving away a small piece of yourself or something that is important to you. Compromise doesn't honor you or your partner. Nobody wins and the result is resentment, the number one killer of all intimacy and connection.

So, what do we do instead of compromise when we are dealing with a disagreement or conflict? I'm teaching you what to do instead and exactly how to do it. Tune in for a step by step process where everyone wins.

In today's episode, I'm talking about the power gratitude has to change the way we feel about another person. We don't even need to share our gratitude with that person in order to benefit from feeling it and looking for ways that person is blessing our life.

My favorite quote from this episode is to imagine if we could only have tomorrow the things we were grateful for today. That one sentament would forever change the way we thought about our blessings. I challenge you to think about all the ways in which your partner is blessing your life and share that list with them this Thanksgiving.

In today's episode, I'm helping couples who feel too busy for their marriage. Most of the time when I ask couples if they are taking the time to date and connect intimately on a regular basis, they will say that they are too busy. People think that when the kids get older or they reach some level of success or financial milestone, then they will make time for their relationship.

The problem with this kind of thinking is that if you haven't properly invested your time, energy and financial resources into your marriage, when challenges come and you need the strength that comes from an intimate friendship forged over time, your relationship will not be able to weather those storms. Here's what to do instead.
