Navigating Different Seasons
It never fails. It seems like once we get our marriages steady and on firm foundations, we encounter a season of change that throws all our hard work on its head and forces us to start the process over again.
Whether it is a season of change with employment, children, health issues, or finances, it inevitably challenges our ability to grow together through them.
So, how do we navigate changing seasons successfully?
Start by acknowledging a new season has emerged...
Remember to communicate transparently about all aspects of the new season, share your fears, and address the uncertainties or insecurities it introduces into your relationship...
Work as a team to maintain closeness, intimacy, and transparency despite the changing season, checking in with each other regularly to reinforce your commitment or resolve developing fissures...
