Show Notes

The Coronavirus pandemic is straining many relationships—some to the breaking point. So, what can we do to keep our marriages strong, even in the most challenging times? Listen in as Katie and Jesse Ewell and Lindsey and Jeremy Nicks join Brooke to offer insight on keeping a marriage healthy for the long term.

Question Highlights

  • How are you managing stress now so it doesn’t impact your spouse?
  • What is one thing women can do right now to put themselves first that would elevate their husbands and families? And how does a husband benefit when his wife puts herself first?
  • How do use faith to navigate the hard times?
  • How do you course correct when life gets you off track? What can we do to build consistent healthy habits?
  • Do you know your spouse’s Love Language? What is the best way you show it?
  • What is your best tip for working together as a couple?
  • What can listeners do this week to make their spouse feel special on a date (even if they’re still in lockdown)?

In this episode, you will learn about…

  • How putting yourself first helps you show up as a better partner and parent
  • Why putting our kids first and relying on our husbands to fill us up doesn’t work for women (and what to do about it)
  • How to walk with your partner through hard things versus trying to fix it for them
  • Jesse’s strategy for stacking prayer and worship with your established, non-negotiable habits
  • Replacing worry, doubt and fear with gratitude first thing in the morning
  • How Katie benefits from the notes of appreciation video Jesse has sent every day—for the last 6 years!
  • Setting boundaries around work and play time as a married couple who works together
  • How to improvise a pandemic-friendly version of a date you would love to go on (e.g.: backyard camping)
