THE episode to listen to if you're marriage has been struggling since becoming parents. Therapist Eli Weinstein discusses all things: communication strategies, staying connected, relationship skills, fighting well and more.
I promise this isn't another "relationship advice" episode. It's legitimately good. 
if your marriage has felt harder since the kids came, this episode is the one i wish someone had handed me. I sat down with therapist Eli Weinstein, author of From I Do to We Do, to talk about the invisible shift that happens to couples in the parenting years, and the actual skills that help you find your way back to each other.
In this episode we dive into:
why marriage feels so different after having kids
the shift couples go through when they become parents
what couples get wrong about staying connected after kids
communication strategies for married couples
how to stay connected to your partner in the baby and toddler years
what to do when your partner isn't on board with working on the marriage
the relationship skills every couple actually needs
how to fight well in marriage
how to argue better with your spouse without it blowing up
