I’ve been married almost as long as I’ve been a marriage therapist. You’d think I’d have marriage figured out...but I didn't. If you looked at my marriage from afar, everything looked great, but in reality, I was so unhappy! Balancing my marriage, my kids, and my career seemed impossible. I wanted a “modern marriage” but I couldn’t figure out to make it work and I definitely didn’t expect to struggle. Does this sound familiar?

In this episode, I share some of my own struggles in maintaining a healthy marriage mindset and share practical ways to assess and identify your marriage mindset and improve it! If your marriage mindset is dragging your marriage down, there is hope for your marriage.
