    Are you feeling empty in your empty nest marriage? Have you experienced a slow fade regarding your feelings for each other? Would you like to move from being frustrated with your spouse to being fascinated? Jill and Mark Savage can help with that. If you are missing your wedding day connection and have turned into roommates instead of lovers and loving partners, this podcast is for you. It’s time to: Stay Curious Learn Each Other & Grow Together In the empty nesting years, many couples grow apart. Yet, it’s proven that couples that grow together stay together. But that isn’t by chance. It takes intention, commitment and leaning into to your Creator and to each other. Jill and Mark have been married for 41 years. Most of them were happy years. Yet, during their years of struggle, their hearts were miles apart. After navigating infidelity on Mark’s part, a dark year and a four-month separation, they put the broken pieces of their relationship back together and began to have different kinds of conversations. They dug deeper, listened better and learned more about fine-tuning the inside rather than symptom-treating the outside of their relationship.   Now, Jill and Mark are committed to helping other couples upgrade their marriages too. Listen in and learn how your marriage can be full and fulfilling – even in the empty nest.   To reach Jill and Mark: Coaching - Mark and Jill Savage     To reach Charlotte: Charlotte Guest
