Reach Out Via Text!In this Marriage Monday episode, Jeremiah and Savannah Jennings get real about the importance of slowing down, truly listening to your spouse, and being intentional with family time. They open up about how easy it is to slip into “go mode”  juggling kids, work, sports, and schedules until you realize you’re living on autopilot. Through funny stories (like being humbled by their son telling them to “calm down”) and honest reflection, they unpack how listening communicates value, why multitasking kills connection, and how small choices like eating dinner without phones or taking a simple evening walk can change everything. It’s a heartfelt reminder that your most meaningful moments don’t need to be scheduled, they just need to be intentional.Support the show 10% off LMN Software- https://lmncompany.partnerlinks.io/growinggreenpodcast Signup for our Newsletter- https://mailchi.mp/942ae158aff5/newsletter-signup Book A Consult Call-https://stan.store/GrowingGreenPodcast Lawntrepreneur Academy-https://www.lawntrepreneuracademy.com/ The Landscaping Bookkeeper-https://thelandscapingbookkeeper.com/ Instagram- https://www.instagram.com/growinggreenlandscapes/ [email protected] Growing Green Website- https://www.growinggreenlandscapes.com/
