Summary

Let’s get real – marriage isn’t all sunshine and rainbows. Sometimes it can feel more like a roommate situation, especially after years of living together. In this episode, we welcome the wonderful Dr. Liz Jenkins, who brings some serious wisdom on how to navigate those tricky waters. We chat about how common it is for couples to lose that initial connection, and Dr. Liz gives us the scoop on her book, “The Marriage Reset”. She outlines her five-step process to help couples reconnect, including ways to re-establish trust and open up those lines of communication. If you’re ready to ditch that roommate vibe in your marriage and bring back the spark, you’ll want to tune in! MORE WAYS TO CONNECT: Join the Banter Circle or learn more.
