In our lives we have sources of income, sources of food, sources of security and so on. Our marriages are also a source, and the benefits we receive from our marriage rely on a reciprocal cycle of give and receive.

But what do we do when it feels like we're always giving but the other person isn't? Here's a 4-step process to repair and restore that give and receive cycle back into our relationships. This technique also works across any other types of relationships - among family, friends and coworkers too.

What even is marriage?

From this episode, engaged couples will understand better what they are signing up for, and a thing or two about trust, including how to improve how much they can trust their future spouse not to hurt them in future.

Plus, a story or two from a pilot's wife's world.

"You're going to be married forever so you want it to be good if that's the case."

"Sometimes we've already decided in our mind what that person's already thought, or what their conclusions are. We actually haven't asked them."

Annika and Peter work together as Pastors of a successful local church - so they need to have a successful marriage! In this episode they generously share some of the insights they've had to gain and some of the joy they experience from being in it for the long term.

It's super important to be happy in your marriage. You can and should be happy in marriage not because your marriage is good but because you are happy and have mastered the art of being happy.

How do I do that when I constantly have to pick up after people, do more than my fair share of washing, or get nagged at by my spouse?
