How to Handle Stress So it Doesn't Negatively Impact Your Marriage: Episode 433

How to Handle Stress So it Doesn't Negatively Impact Your Marriage: Episode 433

Stress is unavoidable. Between the state of the world, work demands, parenting, and the pressure to keep everything running, most couples are carrying more than they realize. The problem isn't stress itself, it's how easily it spills into your marriage. When stress goes unmanaged, it shows up as tension, miscommunication, defensiveness, and feeling like you're constantly behind or letting each other down. And suddenly, the relationship that should feel like support starts to feel like another source of pressure.

In this episode, we talk about how stress moves through your life and into your relationship—and what to do before it quietly erodes connection. You'll learn how to create more margin, emotional awareness, and intentional connection so stress doesn't run your interactions or your home. Because when your marriage is supported, everything else in life—parenting, work, and decision-making—becomes lighter and more sustainable.

If you want to protect your relationship from getting pushed to the bottom of the list, join our 30-Day "Prioritizing Us" Couples Challenge⭐️. It's designed to help couples stay connected and proactive during busy, stressful seasons through small daily actions that strengthen your foundation.
