| 0:00.0 | Hello and welcome to the Empowered Couples podcast. We're here you get modern, non-boring relationship advice for you and your partner to communicate like pros, fight smarter, and stay in the same team no matter the challenge that you face. I am one of your host, Aaron Freeman. And I'm Jocelyn Freeman, but you all just know us as the Freeman's. And this episode is a motivational moment for if you're going through a rough patch in a relationship. |
| 0:21.5 | Now, these are new episodes that we're doing. And the whole intention is that within just a few |
| 0:25.9 | minutes, you can shift your energy and your focus, right? And when you're motivated, you are |
| 0:31.7 | in more action, which is what we're hoping for. Now, if you're going through a rough patch, |
| 0:36.5 | which, Aaron, is it only |
| 0:38.3 | certain couples that go through rough patches? Only the person listening. No, it's all couples, |
| 0:43.9 | all relationships, all marriages go through rough patches. And as we'll go into, it's really not |
| 0:51.0 | so much circumstantial. It is what you've been making out of it. |
| 0:55.1 | Yes. So you're not alone. That's the first thing we want you to know. And even if all your |

| 1:23.1 | get past this. But Aaron, what's the famous quote that we've all heard? What you resist only persists. |
| 1:28.8 | And it's so true. If you resist that you're in a rough patch, that you're going through a little bit |
| 1:34.0 | of a hard season, it will persist because then you're not tackling it head on. So we have to |
| 1:41.1 | sometimes just face it. Okay, we're in this season because then you actually have power. |
| 1:47.0 | What about Aaron? |
| 1:47.6 | Is it good? |
| 1:48.3 | You know, should I just avoid what's going? |
