Balancing love and marriage in the chaos of life isn’t always easy—but it’s always worth it.

This week on Suits & Pajamas, I’m sharing how my husband, David, and I navigate the ups and downs of a busy schedule with love, humor, respect, and a deep appreciation for one another.

Here’s what we’ve learned:

• Make time for each other, even when life feels overwhelming: a quick coffee together or a shared laugh at the end of the day can go a long way.
• Humor is a relationship lifesaver: whether it’s laughing over his terrible timing or my endless to-do lists, we always find a way to keep things light.
• Respect is key: we honor each other’s time and priorities, knowing that balance isn’t about perfection—it’s about effort.
• Appreciation matters: a simple “thank you” or acknowledgment goes a long way in making the other person feel valued. 

Tune in to hear how we manage to keep the spark alive while juggling the demands of life.
