Ep. 254 - Your Marriage Isn’t Behind How to Assess What You Actually Want Next

Описание: As the year comes to a close, it’s easy to start mentally grading your marriage. You notice other couples at holiday gatherings. You scroll past smiling family photos online. And before you know it, comparison creeps in.

In this episode, I break down why comparison is so damaging to your relationship—and what actually helps instead.

You’ll learn:

What comparing sounds like in your marriage

How comparing your marriage keeps you stuck instead of helping you grow

Why your marriage should be viewed in seasons, not years

The difference between judgment and curiosity in conflict and connection

How reflection—not comparison—creates clarity and forward momentum

A practical way to assess what’s working, what feels hard, and what needs attention

This episode is for you if:

You’ve been feeling disconnected or “behind” compared to other couples
The holidays have amplified frustration or self-doubt about your relationship
You want to start the new year with clarity instead of shame
You’re craving partnership, direction, and a shared focus moving forward
