The Saucy Marriage

This was a tough one.

But I talk through my very current challenge with you here in this episode because I know we all need to get real honest about this part of our lives and our marriages.

When it comes to tragedy, death, and loss, we often have gaps in our conversation and preparedness.

And as much as we want to run down avoidance street on this one, there's just no escaping it.

So let's talk about filling that gap this episode.

• If one of you is going through something painful, how does your marriage suffer or thrive?
• Beyond a will, are you really prepared if one of you passes before the other?
• How you've got to break any silence or secrecy around money in order to make things easier in the long run
• And so much more ...

So go ahead and eavesdrop on today's sauce!

This was the kind of interview I got caught up in myself as I listened back. 

It was really personal for me and my guest and we were in such flow!

How did being a child of divorce impact our marriages?

It was a subject that hit close to home and Marcus Fuller was such a phenomenal guest and conversationalist. His honestly and openness will challenge you, encourage you, and convict you in your marriage.

In this episode, we tackled…

• What it was like being a child of divorce
• How we as children actually saw and felt our parents’ decline in the marriage
• How our experiences shaped our current marriages
• What hard lessons we had to learn about ourselves in our marriage 
• The communication pitfalls we worked to climb out of
• How we had to recognize the “darker” parts of the way we showed up in order to grow from them
• And so much more

It’s interesting because during the episode, Marcus and I discovered so many parallels between how we showed up in our marriage and what we had to learn to have healthier ones.

Whether you’re a child of divorce too or are just married with children, this is a MUST listen.

Today's episode is a Marriage Mindset Remix Moment!

I often hear from people who feel as if they've lost themselves in their marriage OR that they fear being lost in their relationship.

They know there is so much they want to do and be a part of in this world before they leave it and wonder if that's possible for them.

I feel you!

But your marriage can be a part of that value, a significant part. Perhaps, just not in the way you think.

How do we stay grounded to self in the midst of a marriage seeking to thrive in a pandemic?

How do we create the life of value we want without losing the connection in our marriage?

The simple answer to that one: use the connection to help create the value.

Eavesdrop on today's sauce to see what I mean.

We say things we don't mean in anger, frustration, or hurt.

Or maybe we did mean them, but we wished we could get a do-over to say it differently.

We want to feel heard, trusted, and connected, but there are these pesky things we do without too much thought that completely block that!

In this episode, I talk about 3 actual phrases you need to drop from your arguments with your spouse.

Why you need to drop them

What happens if you don't.

And my own personal "adventure" story in making a choice that probably helped to save my relationship early on.

Financially Mismatched?

They may not say it aloud much, but there are couples out here who are warring inside because they feel disconnected from their spouse .... spiritually.

Maybe you don't practice the same religion.

Maybe you feel you're connected and more devout and are uneasy about the idea that your spouse is not.

Maybe you explore your spirituality more freely than your spouse and worry that sharing that with them will freak them out or have them look at you differently.

Maybe you're praying alone and it's started to feel lonely because you long to pray with your spouse.

My sister-friend, Mindset & Business Coach, Auguste Crenshaw, and I sat down to have a candid conversation about all of the above.

In her business and her life, spirituality permeates everything she does. And she's had quite the journey!

So lean in and take some time to eavesdrop on the Sauce.

Ahhh, the good 'ol days!

When you got out of bed when you wanted to and not to an "alarm clock" in the shape of your beautiful child.

When a sitter was not a requirement of date night.

When eating that box of donuts didn't show on your waistline.

When you could act a fool and not have it documented on social media.

AND when it comes to our marriage, there are often times we remember and smile.

And while that's great... healthy even!

How do you make sure you're actually moving your marriage forward to create intimacy and closeness and not pulling backwards (consciously or unconsciously)?

Well, let's get into it on today's episode!

• the biggest mistake we make when trying to get closer in our marriage that we often don't realize we're making
• how to look on the past fondly but use that move into the future (and love on the present)
• the ultimate check-in to make sure you're marriage is on track to maximize connection
