What do you do when the person you love most struggles—and you're left carrying the weight of it all? In this episode, we’re diving into the emotional toll that comes when your spouse isn’t okay, and life looks nothing like you expected.

We’ll talk about the silent burden of unmet expectations, how to show up with grace (even when you’re tired), and what it looks like to stay connected when everything feels out of sync. Whether your spouse is facing burnout, depression, or just a heavy season, this episode will give you the tools, encouragement, and hope to navigate it together—without losing yourself in the process.

You are not alone. And even in the hard, there’s a way forward.
