The Marriage & Motherhood Podcast

Let us know how you enjoyed this episode!

Resentment is something everyone feels from time to time throughout the life of their marriage.

While resentment is common in marriage, it doesn't have to tear your marriage apart so that you two are eternally miserable in a co-parenting roommate dynamic or send you straight down the road to divorce.

What if you started seeing resentment as a valuable clue to how you can make your marriage better? So that you can feel closer and more satisfied in it?

In this episode of The Marriage & Motherhood Podcast, I share:

- How resentment is a normal feeling to experience and how healthy couples handle it
- What resentment is rooted in
- The impact resentment has on your relationship when left undealt with or when you don't have the proper tools to deal with it
- What's going on behind the scenes when we act from our resentment

Thanks for listening!
