Description

Join hosts Dr. Ryan and Kendra Hewitt on the Weaponized Marriage Podcast for a late-night conversation about the delicate balance between saving and supporting in relationships. In this episode, they dive into real-life stories, including their own, to explore how enabling can hinder growth and how true support empowers transformation. With candid reflections and practical wisdom, this episode offers couples tools to foster healthier dynamics and grow together.


Key Takeaways:

Saving vs. Supporting: Saving a spouse can enable stagnation, while supporting them encourages personal growth and accountability.

Letting Them Sit in the Pit: Allowing a partner to face their challenges without rescuing them can lead to meaningful change.

Taking Responsibility: Personal happiness and healing are individual responsibilities, not burdens for your spouse to carry.

Leading by Example: Healthy marriages thrive when partners inspire each other through actions, not control.

Growing Together: Couples should embrace growth at their own paces while supporting each other’s healing journeys.


"Your happiness and your healing is your responsibility." – Dr. Ryan Hewitt
