What Women Want in Marriage, Especially Mothers: Episode 394

Women's needs in marriage evolve—and if you're not paying attention to those changes, disconnection can creep in even when there's love. This is especially true in the seasons of motherhood, when emotional, physical, and mental demands are at their highest.

Whether you're navigating newborn life, toddler chaos, or school-age schedules, this conversation helps both partners understand what matters most for staying connected.
