Are you tired of feeling like your marriage is stuck in neutral? Do you ever wonder why some couples thrive while others just survive?

In this Expert Interview, Jim Ramos sits down with Chris Herb to talk about what actually makes marriages succeed. Chris breaks down the simple, intentional habits that move a marriage from survival mode to steady and connected.

You'll learn how and why your wife is craving your leadership—and what initiating actually looks like. As well as the biggest mistakes men make in marriage and how to fix them fast.
