Avoid Divorce: A Couple's Guide to Rebuilding Love and Connection | Casey and Meygan Caston | #107

In this inspiring episode of Stronger Marriage Connection, Dave Schramm and Liz
Hale welcome Casey and Meygan Caston, founders of Marriage 365, to share their journey from the brink of divorce to becoming marriage mentors. They discuss practical tools like the weekly marriage business meeting, emotional check-ins, and the 60-second blessing to help couples reconnect and thrive. With an emphasis on curiosity, intentionality, and self-awareness, the Castons provide actionable insights to strengthen relationships and build a lasting legacy of love.

Rebuilding love and connection starts with intentionality, curiosity, and the courage to work on yourself. Simple, consistent habits can create a strong, lasting marriage.

About Casey & Meygan:

Just three years into marriage, we were voted the couple least likely to succeed. We literally
hated each other and had no idea how to get back the love and connection we’d once felt.
Through lots of stumbling and trial and error, we did manage to walk back from the brink of
divorce. But it was incredibly hard. Largely because there were no affordable and accessible
resources for us back then. We felt like we were fumbling around in the dark.

So we created the exact resource we wish we’d had: Marriage365. Our restored marriage was
the inspiration to help other couples who were feeling stuck, lost, and confused about how to
reconnect. Today, our app and website reach millions of couples around the world every day,
providing practical advice, tools, and inspiration. You can find all of those resources at
www.marriage365.com. Our mission is to create a safe place for people to grow and ask
questions that is available to anyone. Money or privilege should never prevent someone from
getting the tools they need to better themselves and their relationships.

Insights:

• Meygan: "I think everybody should lift up their head and do an emotional check in with themselves, and pick an area of their life where they know that it could probably be better, health, parenting, work, marriage, and just ask yourself, what's working, what's not working, and what needs to change. And that will be truly a gift of self care for someone listening today."
• Casey: "If you want to make a better marriage, make a better you, it is a message of empowerment, and it means that you can actually work on your marriage by yourself. You don't have to wait and don't have to feel stuck because your partner's not willing to join. That means, as Liz, I think you said, we take 100% responsibility of our of our marriage, and we own it and we they I'm gonna work on myself, regardless
  of you. And I think marriage forces you to work on yourself, like when you're single, nobody can come over and go, You know what? You should really shouldn't say stuff like that. It's inappropriate. Marriage is a great tool for self development."
• Liz: "...the power of the tongue. Your Words have the power to give life or death. Yep, we know that. I just don't think of that nearly enough."
• Dave: "I think that that, honesty, is the key to the stronger marriage connection. I mean, the 60 seconds. It's this intentionality, it's, you know what? But I've never done that, and that might feel awkward for me, but if couples will just do it, adopt some of these positive practices to build that relationship connection. Check in, think of that other person, get curious, ask some questions, and then the sincere compliments,
  really genuinely eye to eye, knee ball, knee or eyeball to eyeball, kneecap to kneecap, looking them in the eye, and sharing how you really feel deeply about them, whether you appreciate about them."
