Did you know the average couple waits six years to get help for challenges in their marriage?

That's six years of struggling and feeling like something's off.

I'm wondering why you can't seem to change things.

We're being busy is overdone.

or send us an email to hugs at oneextraordinarymarriage.com.

On today's show, we're talking about the midlife crisis,

what it is, how it can impact the marriage, and what to do about it.

There's a quote from Gail Sheehy that talks about this and she says,

as we approach midlife and our middle 30s or early 40s,

we are not prepared for the idea that time can run out on us

or for the startling truth that if we don't hurry to pursue our own definition of a meaningful

existence, life can become a repetition of trivial maintenance activities.

So we're talking about today, we're talking about the midlife crisis,

but before we get there, we open every one extraordinary marriage show with a hug.
