In this episode, we’re exploring one of the most overlooked habits in marriage: micro repairs. These are the small, intentional moments of ownership and reconnection that keep little cuts from becoming big wounds. You’ll learn why big fights rarely start big, how small disconnections quietly erode trust, and how repairing in the moment can strengthen your marriage far more than any grand apology ever could.

Through real examples from men in Better Husband Academy, Angelo breaks down what micro repairs look like in daily life, why most men avoid them, and how learning to repair—and receive repairs—can completely shift the atmosphere of your marriage.

🔑 What You’ll Learn in This Episode:
✅ Why most big fights start with small, unrepaired moments
✅ What a “micro repair” actually looks like in real life
✅ The stories men tell themselves that keep them from repairing
✅ How to build daily habits that make repair second nature
✅ Why receiving your wife’s repairs is just as important as making your own
✅ How consistent micro repairs protect your marriage from long-term erosion

💡 Key Takeaway:
Most marriages don’t fall apart in one catastrophic moment—they erode under the weight of a thousand small, unrepaired disconnections. Practicing micro repairs daily keeps those cracks from spreading. Every small repair is a moment of leadership, a signal that your marriage matters too much to leave small wounds untended.

🔨 Action Steps This Week:
1⃣ Do a daily check-in. At the end of each day, ask yourself, “Did I do or say anything that created distance?” If yes, make a small repair before bed.
2⃣ Shorten your repair time. Track how long it takes you to circle back. If it’s days, aim for hours. If it’s hours, aim for minutes. The goal is real-time repair.
3⃣ Make one physical bid for connection. A touch on the arm, reaching for a hand, a hug—these gestures can repair as powerfully as words.
4⃣ Work on receiving her repairs. When she circles back, don’t grade the quality of her apology. Let it land. Say thank you. Step back into connection.

🧠 Reflection Questions:
❓ Where do I most often create small disconnections without repairing them?
❓ What story or excuse do I use that keeps me from repairing sooner?
❓ How open am I when my wife tries to repair with me—do I let it land or hold back?
❓ What would it look like if I made repair a daily leadership habit instead of an occasional one?
