Show Notes
What are ways your emotional health impacts your marriage? Is one of you more emotionally responsive, and the other naturally stoic? Or do you see emotions showing up in different ways?
In this week’s episode, Candace and Jennie dive into how your emotional health plays a role in your relationship with your spouse. Listen in as they reflect on their own marriages, talk about practical things they do to stay connected to their husbands emotionally, how they resolve conflict, and the deep value intentional counseling has had on them.
“What if my spouse doesn’t want to go to marriage counseling or doesn’t want to work on their emotional health?” This is a common question! Candace and Jennie share their insights and personal experiences with counseling + healing their personal emotional health, and how that has led to healing within their marriages. Because the reality is that you have the power and choice to control your emotional health, and you can bring that into your marriage and family relationships.

Candace + Jennie are wrapping up Season 6 with a special episode all about YOU - our listeners! They are answering several listener questions about emotions, connecting with those in a different generation than you, navigating burnout and finding JOY again, and more.
Every day you are faced with a choice. As you experience different emotions, what will you do with them? How will you respond to them? You name them, but now what?
There is a connection between your emotional health and your body. Just think about what you feel physically when you experience different emotions:
What is your favorite memory from your childhood? What makes those memories good memories?
Two words can push emotions to a deeper place … “I feel.” Do you have community that you can safely share your emotions with? That you can vulnerably say … “I feel” without fear or shame?
