Ep. 98: Habits to Adopt in 2026 if You Want a Healthy Marriage

Dec 29, 2025
21 mins

Episode Description

As we head into a new year, I want to talk about what actually creates change in marriage. Not surface level advice, and not big overhauls that feel impossible to maintain, but small, intentional habits that shape how connected, supported, and secure your relationship feels over time.


In this episode, I’m walking you through the four foundational pillars of a healthy marriage and the simple, practical habits that strengthen each one. These are the habits I see make the biggest difference for couples, especially after kids, when time, energy, and patience feel limited. My goal is to help you personalize what works for your marriage so that 2026 feels steadier, more connected, and more supportive than the year before.


Tune in to discover:


• The four pillars every healthy marriage needs to feel good and stay strong

• Why small, consistent habits matter more than big relationship gestures

• Daily and weekly practices that build connection and communication

• The mindset shift that improves conflict without avoiding hard conversations

• Simple ways to reduce resentment and improve the mental load dynamic
