EPISODE #12 – Questions for Couples Journal – Behind the Scenes
Today on the podcast, the Hubs and I are taking you behind the scenes of my new book, the Questions for Couples Journal! We share some stories and memories from the process of writing the book together as a team, and I am delighted to have my very special guest and love of my life back on the show.
As the world comes together to deal with the Coronavirus situation we’re in right now, I want to continue to both bring you coaching tools and concepts that will help your marriage continue to thrive. No matter what is happening in the world, sharing stories and laughs with you is more important than ever. Getting through the heavy stuff always requires a balance with the lighter parts of life!
Tune in to hear details about what you can expect from the book, as well as tips on how you can make your relationship stronger when new challenges, projects, or priorities enter into your marriage.
