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.

In this week's podcast episode, we break down the 5 key categories of needs most women have in marriage right now—especially mothers in the thick of parenting. Whether you're navigating newborn life, toddler chaos, or school-age schedules, this conversation helps both partners understand what matters most for staying connected.
