Ep 80: The unspoken truth of Marriage and Grief with Miscarriage and Infant Loss W/Kate Carson
***Trigger warning*** Infant loss, miscarriage, grief
This week's episode features Kate Carson, a former teacher, engineer and now a love, sex and life transitions coach. Kate talks all about her own grief with late term pregnancy loss, miscarriage and not only keeping your marriage strong through those experiences but also the different secondary experiences that come as a result of those states- lactation after late term pregnancy loss, the sexuality changes that happen because of depression and grief, etc. If you've experienced any of the traumatic circumstances that Kate talks about in this episode, I encourage you to reach out to her for somatic help.

Ep 79: 10 Tips for Men to Enhance Their Marriage and Positively Impact Their Kids
1. Show Affection and Love Towards Your Partner
Kids learn a lot by observing their parents. When you show affection and express love towards your spouse, you’re setting a powerful example. This teaches them about healthy, loving relationships and the importance of emotional expression.
Action Tip: Make a habit of daily gestures of love—whether it’s a kiss, a hug, or a simple “I love you.” Let your children see and feel the warmth in your marriage.
2. Communicate Openly and Respectfully
Open, respectful communication between partners is crucial. It teaches children how to express their thoughts and feelings constructively.
Action Tip: Practice active listening and speak to your partner with respect, especially during disagreements. This shows your kids how to handle conflicts healthily.
3. Share Household Responsibilities
When men actively participate in household chores, it demonstrates equality and teamwork. This not only lightens the load but also models the importance of sharing responsibilities.
Action Tip: Divide household tasks and be consistent in your contributions. This balanced approach fosters a cooperative and supportive environment.
4. Be Present and Engaged
Quality time with your spouse sets a foundation for a strong relationship. Being present and engaged also shows your children the value of giving undivided attention to loved ones.
Action Tip: Schedule regular date nights or spend time together after the kids go to bed. This strengthens your bond and creates a stable family dynamic.
5. Support Each Other’s Parenting Decisions
Consistency in parenting is crucial for a child's sense of security. When parents support each other’s decisions, it provides a united front.
Action Tip: Discuss parenting strategies and agree on rules and consequences. Back each other up in front of the kids, discussing any disagreements privately.
6. Show Gratitude and Appreciation
Expressing gratitude strengthens your relationship and sets a positive example for your children. It teaches them to appreciate and acknowledge the efforts of others.
Action Tip: Regularly thank your spouse for the little things they do. A simple “thank you” can go a long way in maintaining a happy marriage.
7. Encourage Each Other’s Personal Growth
Supporting your spouse’s personal development and interests is vital. It shows your children the importance of growth and self-improvement.
Action Tip: Encourage your partner to pursue hobbies, education, or career goals. Celebrate their achievements and be their biggest cheerleader.
8. Maintain a Sense of Humor
Laughter is a key ingredient in a healthy marriage. It helps diffuse tension and fosters a joyful atmosphere at home.
Action Tip: Find reasons to laugh together—whether it’s through sharing funny stories, watching a comedy, or simply being playful. This positive energy rubs off on your children.
9. Demonstrate Conflict Resolution Skills
Conflict is inevitable, but handling it well is what counts. Show your children that disagreements can be resolved calmly and respectfully.
Action Tip: Practice problem-solving together. Use “I” statements to express feelings and work towards mutually beneficial solutions. This teaches your kids invaluable conflict resolution skills.
10. Prioritize Family Time
Balancing work and family can be challenging, but prioritizing family time is essential. It strengthens your bond and creates lasting memories.
Action Tip: Dedicate specific times for family activities, like game nights or weekend outings. Being together as a family unit reinforces the importance of family connections.

Customer Reviews
Much needed podcast!
The episode on emotional safety really touched me especially after dealing with childhood trauma
Practical, Honest, and Effective!
I started listening to the podcast well before I knew God’s plan for our marriage, thanks to a gentle nudge from a dear friend. I was desperately seeking tools to supplement the two years my husband I had spent in marriage counseling, resulting in minimal change to our marriage.
In keeping with pilot wives theme (full transparency, I am a farmer’s wife), it was like we would gain momentum on the runway, take off, and soon after… be right back where we started with the same old, same old, rinse and repeat patterns and behaviors. We were exhausted, desperate, at the end of our rope while our hearts and mind’s remained conflicted on where to go from there.
As a current client of Recognizing Potential, Kam’s coaching, by the grace of God, has transformed our marriage just shy of six months of working with her.

Feeling empowered
I’m someone that loves podcasts. I usually have a hard time listening to single person pods, but I LOVED this one and had no problems at all. After listening to one episode I felt so motivated to make changes in my life that will make me happier and fulfill my highest self.
