Description

In today's episode, Dr. Corey Allen joins us for a deep dive into fictional, but incredibly common, marriage scenarios that reveal surprising truths about desire, conflict, and emotional maturity.

We explore how sexual and relational struggles aren't mistakes—they are intentional invitations to grow up, become more courageous, and see our spouse more clearly.

In this episode, we cover:

  • Why sexual struggles are built into the work of marriage

  • How meanings—not the issue itself—drive most conflicts

  • How to own your part in the marriage

  • Why many husbands unconsciously hedge their investment

  • The danger of "minimum requirement" sex

  • What real married love is

  • What is actually better than "being happy" in marriage

If you're ready to see your marriage challenges from a whole new angle, this episode will change the way you think about intimacy and growth and the purpose of marriage.
