Do you and your partner have the same argument over and over?

PRINCIPLE #3: Turn toward your partner

I’m curious: how does your partner respond when you…

… talk about your day?

… are sad, upset, or stressed out?

… have good news to share?

Don’t underestimate the importance of these responses, which we’ll explore at our upcoming couple’s workshop based on “The Seven Principles for Making Marriage Work” by John Gottman.

You’ll walk away with concrete strategies to respond to each other with presence, sincerity, and compassion - the key to successful marriages.

Scheduling s*x sounds depressing, I know.

But research shows that putting it on the calendar makes it more likely to happen, and (assuming your relationship is otherwise healthy and harmonious) it can actually be exciting.

Want to try it?! Here are five helpful tips:

1) Timing - experiment with unconventional times like Monday mornings before work, Thursdays on your lunch break, or Saturdays during the kids’ naptime. PRO TIP: consider when the partner with lower libido tends to be in the mood and plan around that.

2) Circumstances - discuss non-negotiables to minimize last-minute barriers. Phones silenced? Candles lit? Dishes done? PRO TIP: bad smells are a major turn-off... ask your partner’s honest opinion about showering, fresh breath, and deodorants/colognes.

Recently, I got sick of the formal, salesy, impersonal nature of business newsletters. I decided to ditch them and instead share my personal, informal take on life, love, s*x, and motherhood in short, easy-to-read emails so the SPARK community can get to know me on a deeper level.

Many of my clients question whether they chose the right partner.

They fixate on all the negative aspects of their relationship, and fantasize about what it would be like to be with someone else.

But the reality is–there’s no such thing as the perfect person. There will always be things that align and things that don’t. It’s about chosing the combination of things you’re willing to live with long-term.

So before you jump ship, consider talking to a trusted professional and getting their honest feedback because, to quote Joni Mitchell, you don’t know what you’ve got ‘til it’s gone.

PRINCIPLE #2: Nurture fondness and admiration

Why did you choose your partner?

What are some strengths they bring to the table that you’ve maybe started to take for granted?

How can you build a culture of gratitude and appreciation to help buffer the tough times?

We’ll explore these questions and more at our upcoming couple’s workshop based on “The Seven Principles for Making Marriage Work” by John Gottman.

You’ll walk away with concrete strategies to nurture more fondness and admiration in YOUR marriage.
