Have you ever wondered how to keep the spark alive in your relationship and fend off the threat of monotony that might edge you toward divorce? Join me, Cindy Hovington, along with Amy Morin, author of "13 Things Mentally Strong Couples Don't Do," as we uncover the secrets to a flourishing partnership that benefits not just you and your spouse, but your children as well.
We discuss the delicate balance of setting boundaries in a relationship can feel like walking a tightrope, but it's a vital act for maintaining a healthy connection. We reveal how to introduce boundaries with sensitivity and strength, even in well-established relationships, and take a closer look at the underlying issues that trivial squabbles can mask. If you're ready to challenge the myth that your partner should be your everything, this episode is for you.
Lastly, we tackle the pervasive challenge of martyrdom and how to foster a more equitable partnership through delegation and open dialogue. With these actionable insights, Amy and I guide you in strengthening your bond and renewing the joy in your journey together.
