Quit Keeping Score | Ep. 266

Hey there, welcome back to another episode of the Married Into Crazy podcast with Snooks and Lovey! In this episode titled "Quit Keeping Score," we dive deep into the traps of scoreboarding in relationships. Lovey, freshly shaved and feeling 10 years younger, joins me (Snooks) as we reflect on our 27 years of marriage—the good, the bad, and the hilarious. We share our personal stories, from my stalkerish ex breaking into my home to Lovey's two heart surgeries and our near-divorce. These experiences shaped our mission to lift up the covenant of marriage through this podcast and our coaching programs. Join us as we discuss why keeping score is toxic to relationships and how forgiveness can set you free. Discover practical tips on letting go of resentment and focusing on the good qualities in your partner. Remember, we're a team, and marriage is a marathon that requires stamina and resilience.  Hit that subscribe button and leave a review to stay connected.
