    Episode 310: Relational Trauma in Marriage: When the Relationship No Longer Feels Safe

You’ll walk away with a clearer understanding of: why certain interactions still feel charged long after they happenwhy effort and “good intentions” don’t always lead to repairhow your body and nervous system may be responding before your mind catches upwhy some couples feel stuck even when they’re trying to do everything “right”what it might mean when a relationship no longer feels emotionally safe—even if it’s still intactThis episode is for anyone who knows something is off, but hasn’t had language for it yet.

    Episode 309: How to Reduce Conflict and Create Emotional Safety in Your Marriage

    Conflict in marriage isn’t usually about the surface issue—it’s about what gets activated underneath. In this episode, I’m breaking down what’s really driving the arguments, shutdowns, and emotional distance so many couples find themselves stuck in. We’re talking about the emotions that are hardest to feel, the coping strategies that keep backfiring, and why reacting in the moment so often makes things worse—even when your intentions are good. You’ll learn what actually creates emotional safety between partners, how to stay grounded instead of reactive, and why regulating your own emotional experience is the key to calmer conversations, fewer blowups, and deeper connection. If you’re tired of feeling like you’re either walking on eggshells or stuck in the same fights on repeat, this conversation will help you see a new path forward. If this episode is describing your marriage, don’t wait for the next argument to try to put these things in place. The help you need is available now to avoid that fight altogether. I invite you to book a consultation call with me and explore exactly how working together in my private coaching program will help you have calmer, more connected conversations that actually end well.

    Episode 308: Stuck Conversations in Marriage: Why You Keep Talking and Nothing Is Changing

    Have you ever walked away from a conversation with your partner thinking, “We’ve talked about this so many times… why does nothing ever change?” In this episode, we’re talking about stuck conversations—the ones that keep looping around emotional needs, help and support, or personal growth… without ever really moving the relationship forward. I break down what’s actually happening beneath the surface of these repeated discussions—especially the common dynamic where one partner has a clear vision and unmet expectations for the relationship and the other doesn’t share that vision, doesn’t fully understand it, or quietly resists it I'll also walk you through what actually needs to shift—not just what to say, but: what to decide before the conversationhow to redirect your energy during itand how to be radically honest with yourself after, especially when the outcome isn’t what you hoped for If you’ve been doing everything you know how to do—and still feel stuck—this episode will help you zoom out, see the pattern more clearly, and understand what might finally help break the cycle. This is the Moment to Get Help: These conversations don’t fix themselves—and repeating them without support often makes things worse. A private consultation call gives you the outside perspective and structure needed to finally break the cycle. You can BOOK YOUR CALL WITH ME HERE And to sign up for my email list, CLICK HERE

    Episode 307: How to Move Forward When Your Marriage Feels Stuck

    In this episode, we zoom out and look at the stuck stage of marriage—what it really is, why so many couples end up here, and the different ways partners try to cope when forward movement feels impossible. You’ll hear why “sweeping things under the rug,” trying harder in the same ways, or emotionally checking out can all keep couples locked in place—especially when you and your partner cope very differently. One of you may want to talk it through. The other may want space. And instead of helping, those differences can deepen the distance. More importantly, we’ll talk about what actually helps couples move forward in a healthy, grounded way—without blame, pressure, or forcing change. In this episode, you’ll learn: What being “stuck” in a marriage really means (and why it’s more common than you think)The hidden impact of different coping styles when both partners feel frustrated or disconnectedWhy progress doesn’t start with fixing problems—but with stabilizing the foundationHow clarity about what you want moving forward changes everythingHow addressing root issues (unmet emotional needs, negative stories, quiet resentment) opens the door to real collaborationWhat it looks like to approach your marriage as a team again This conversation is for couples who haven’t given up—but know they can’t keep doing things the same way and expect different results. If you’re ready to stop spinning in place and start moving forward with intention, compassion, and clarity, this episode is for you.

    Episode 306: How to Love Each Other Well In Marriage: Emotional Skills Every Couple Needs

    If your marriage feels tense, distant, or emotionally exhausting right now, you’re not broken — you’re under-skilled. Most couples who are struggling aren’t lacking love. They’re lacking the emotional tools to handle disappointment, resentment, stress, and unmet needs without turning against each other. So what comes out instead is criticism, shutdowns, defensiveness, and that painful feeling of being alone in the relationship. In this episode, we talk about what it actually takes to love each other well when things aren’t easy — when you’re hurt, triggered, disconnected, or starting to wonder if you’re even on the same team anymore. We look at the real foundations of a healthy partnership: how to understand yourself, communicate without exploding or withdrawing, listen in a way that creates safety, show up with kindness instead of score-keeping, and keep choosing each other even when it feels hard. You’ll start to see where your dynamic is breaking down — and more importantly, where there is still room for repair, closeness, and change. This conversation is for couples who don’t want to give up, but don’t want to keep living like this either. If you’re tired of feeling misunderstood, unseen, or emotionally alone in your marriage, this episode will help you understand what’s been missing — and what it would look like to start doing things differently.

    Episode 305: How to Build Inner Strength and Keep Going When Life Gets Hard

After listening to this episode, you will: See why many people quietly quit on themselves—and how to interrupt that patternUnderstand how to acknowledge disappointment and failure without letting them define youLearn how inner strength is built through staying, not strivingFeel reconnected to the resilient, capable part of you that already knows how to endureWalk away with a deeper sense of self-trust and resolve to keep going, even when things feel heavy This is an invitation to stop underestimating what you’re made of—and to lead yourself from a place of quiet strength, clarity, and commitment.

    Episode 304: Before You Set Goals, Choose One of these 5 Energies

    Before you set another goal, write another list, or map out another plan—pause and listen to this episode. How you enter the year will matter far more than what you put on paper. In this episode, I invite you to consider a different starting point for growth—one that most people skip entirely. We explore why choosing your energy first, before the planning and the doing, becomes the invisible force behind your consistency, your follow-through, and the way you show up in your life and relationships. If you want 2026 to feel different—not just busier or more ambitious, but more grounded, intentional, and aligned—this conversation will give you a powerful new lens. And to continue this work together, I invite you to join my new free challenge: The Well Made Woman: New Year Energy. We start January 1st.
