How to Be More Self-Aware to Break YOUR Patterns That Affect the Marriage: Episode 391

How to Be More Self-Aware to Break YOUR Patterns That Affect the Marriage: Episode 391

Marriage isn't static; it evolves, and to thrive in it, you have to evolve too. Often, it's the resistance to this truth, not just the circumstances you face, that makes marriage feel more difficult. Satisfaction goes down, frustration goes up. That's why personal growth and self-awareness are non-negotiables in a long-term marriage.

In this episode, we unpack what "personal growth and development" actually looks like in a relationship. You'll hear six key areas to reflect on and bring more awareness to within yourself, before turning to what you want your partner to change. Growth starts with awareness, but we'll also share specific ideas and actions you can take in each area. This is the path both partners must walk individually so the marriage can continue to evolve in a connected, fulfilling way.
