Description

Have you ever looked at your spouse and thought, “How did we get here?”  
You’re in the same house, but it feels like you’re miles apart. You reconnect for a moment only to have it fall apart all over again. Chronic disconnection is incredibly painful. The spark is gone. Conversations feel forced. You wonder if you'll ever feel close again. 

In this episode, we’re unpacking the top 7 things that cause disconnection in marriage.

From emotional shutdowns to hidden resentment, from unspoken expectations to unhelpful thought patterns, these erode connection until it feels like you’re just roommates instead of soulmates.

If your heart feels distant but you still long to reconnect, this episode will help you understand what’s been ruining the closeness.
