What’s Hard About Marriage + What To Do About It

Marriage isn't easy for anyone. You're taking two people who maybe knew about 70% of each other, committing them for life + telling them - go figure out the other 30% as you go. I'll be the first to say - 5% of the 30% you don't know is discovered when you clean the bathroom for the first time after moving in together. Too much? That feels like maybe too much. But, like always, I went and found someone far ahead of me to help me navigate the really tough parts that we won't always see coming. From communication, to new rhythms, to navigating conflict and of course the complete reset that happens once kids enter the mix. Marriage is hard - but it doesn't have to stay hard. Push play to hear from a couple whose marriage shaped me just by proximity, and now through this conversation.
