40. What Premarital Coaching Can Teach Us About Lasting Partnership | Kory McBride

Do we really know what we’re signing up for when we say “yes” to a marriage?

In this episode of Love with Francesca, I sit down with premarital counselor, Kory McBride, to talk about why premarital counseling isn’t just for engaged couples, it’s one of the most powerful tools for women already in long-term relationships who want clarity, emotional fairness, and a healthier way forward.

In this episode, we explore: ✨ The real purpose of premarital counseling (and why it’s not just for engaged couples) ✨ The difference between infatuation and choosing love with your eyes open ✨ How expectations, especially unspoken ones, damage relationships ✨ What it actually means to “grow together” versus over-functioning or fixing ✨ The giver-taker dynamic and why over-giving leads to resentment ✨ Why boundaries and “rules of engagement” matter during conflict ✨ How childhood, past relationships, and role models shape how we love ✨ Why winning an argument is never worth damaging the relationship

Whether you’re dating, engaged, married, or reflecting on your relationship patterns, this episode offers grounded wisdom and practical insight into building a partnership that lasts.
