Summary
When your spouse doesn't open up, doesn't communicate the way you want, or seems emotionally unavailable, it's easy to believe that connection is impossible. This is a story many women tell themselves. But what if this belief is actually what keeps you stuck in frustration and resentment?
In this replay episode, I sit down with my mentor Brooke Castillo to explore a radically different approach to marriage.
We dig into why feeling connected to your spouse has nothing to do with whether they share their feelings or help with the dishes. Brooke shares her philosophy on unconditional love and why she believes your spouse's only job is to be there for you to love them - not to meet your needs or follow your manual for how a good spouse should behave.
