  • How Parenting Changes Your Marriage (In Ways No One Talks About)
    Jun 11 2025

    No one really prepares you for how much parenting will change your marriage.

    In this episode, we open up about the ways having kids has reshaped how we communicate, how we love each other, and how we stay connected in the chaos. From tag-teaming tantrums to learning what intimacy looks like on 4 hours of sleep — this is our honest look at what parenting is really doing to us… and for us.

    We talk about:

    • Losing and rediscovering connection as parents
    • The invisible load of parenting and how it creates resentment
    • What “quality time” means in the toddler years
    • How faith and grace are the only way through

    This isn’t a parenting guide — it’s a marriage podcast for couples working together to live a real life.

    Share this with another parent couple who needs some encouragement this week.
