Marriage Mission Statement

In Episode 9 of Asking For A Friend, therapist and co-host dive deep into what it truly means to protect your marriage — from creating a couple's mission statement to the importance of daily check-ins that go beyond a surface-level "How was your day?" They explore how feeling heard and seen is at the root of most relationship struggles, and why consistently coming back to each other emotionally is the foundation of a lasting partnership. The episode wraps with a cliffhanger on physical intimacy, setting the stage for an honest conversation about how sex and closeness evolve over time — and why letting it fall off the list can turn your spouse into a roommate.
