Marriage is fucking hard. I heard a quote recently where someone asked the secret to making marriage work. The response was, “We never wanted to get divorced at the same time.” Marriage can feel like a roller coaster. Then add the obstacles of children, work schedules and stress, and daily ups and downs and you may find yourself miles apart from your partner. What happened to the fun? What happened to the intimacy and connection? Where the hell did it go?
Did you know that 60% of problems between a couple are perpetual problems, meaning there is never any real resolution? Instead, the same problem keeps arising and you keep finding ways to argue and fight over it or find small, temporary fixes. When conflict continues to occur between a couple, it can quickly feel like you are against each other, a “you vs. me” mentality. The shift we are looking for is the mentality of “we vs. problem” where you and partner are united against any problem that comes your way. You can kick it around, consider options, and tackle the issue together as masters of your marriage.
It’s time to make your marriage the priority. It’s time to reconnect and reignite the fire that was once there. It is possible to salvage and repair what has been broken. There is hope.
If you are ready to improve communication, conflict resolution, and overall connection and friendship, then I am ready to start the journey with you. My goal is to help you and your partner rekindle the fun and fire that brought you together in the first place. I hope to offer a safe and supportive place to identify unhelpful dynamics that create conflict in the first place and provide you with tools and skills to shift towards a culture of respect and appreciation.
Whether you have been married for 2 months or 20 years, you and your partner are the most important person in each other’s lives. Call or email today to schedule a free 10-15 minute consult to learn more about becoming masters of your marriage.
