Our culture has taught us that when something is no longer serving us, when it gets boring or hard or we just don’t want it anymore, then we can replace it with a newer, better or more exciting model. Unfortunately this mindset has been applied to our marriages. We have been fed the lie that a relationship that takes investment isn’t worth it if we aren’t getting all the feels we did at first. But marriage is so much deeper than that. When we choose to prioritize our relationship with our husband and fight for it to thrive, we can experience a love unlike any other on this earth. In this week’s episode of the Resilient Podcast, Sabrina Schlesinger shares her insight on what you can do to help your marriage thrive. It is her passion to show women that you can have a marriage that you enjoy, with a sex life you look forward to and a love that lasts.
