Summary

This week we are recording from our car, so sorry in advance for the audio. But we have a good topic for you: choosing your battles. We talk about when it makes sense to dig in and fight for something that really matters, and when it is better for your sanity, marriage, or parenting to let it go. From the small arguments that are not worth the energy to the big moments that shape life together, we share some laughs, a few stories, and hopefully give you something to think about the next time you face a battle of your own.
