Summary

When is the BEST age to get married? Is it getting married younger or older? I get that question a lot. And if you know me, you know that my answer is this: It’s not about your age, it’s about your health. But nonetheless, there are pros and cons to getting married young and there are pros and cons to getting married older. So, we’ll be talking to two sets of couples who got married at different stages, and hearing both the pros and the cons from their experience. Today I want to introduce you to Dave and Ashley Willis, who met and married in their early 20s. I loved my conversation with them, and I know you will too!!

0:00.0	Hey, everyone back to the love and relationships podcast. I'm your host, Deborah Felita,
0:23.8	and I'm so glad you're tuning into these candid conversations about love, sex, dating,
0:29.5	singleness, and marriage, as well as mental and emotional health. For those of you who don't know me,
0:35.5	I'm a licensed professional counselor and author of four books.
0:39.4	I also run the popular relationship advice blog, True Lovedates.com, reaching millions of people with the message that healthy people make healthy relationships.
0:50.4	If you've tuned into the podcast before, you know it's a hotline style show, meaning people call in or write in with their questions, and I answer them on this show in short, practical, bite-sized answers.
1:04.2	If you have a question that you want me to answer on the show, send it by email or voice memo to Deborah at true lovedates.com or check out my podcast page,
1:14.3	tru-lovedates.com slash love and relationships. And I'll do my best to get it answered on one of the

1:43.1	In the craziness and busyness of life, we push through
1:46.9	without ever taking inventory of how we're actually doing. Then all of a sudden, we're faced with
1:52.7	things like burnout, anxiety, depression, mental and emotional breakdowns, relationship problems,
1:59.2	and even physical illness and struggles that seemingly
2:02.2	come out of nowhere. But it's because we never stopped. We never took the time to pause
2:07.9	and consider how we're actually doing emotionally, mentally, spiritually, and physically.
2:14.5	I know this because I've been there myself. When Jesus calls us to love him
2:19.7	with all our heart, soul, mind, and strength, that means getting healthy in all of these areas.
2:26.9	But time alone doesn't get us healthy. We have to be intentional about moving in the right
2:32.7	direction. As a licensed professional counselor, I want to share my story with you.
2:38.2	I want to help you get real about how you're actually doing and give you a practical plan
