Feel like your relationship is in a rut?
Yes, a date night can help spice things up. But if you're unhappy with yourself, a night out with your significant other can't fix that. To grow as a couple, both partners need to look inward and bring the best version of themselves to the relationship.
On this episode of Destined to Be, we're discussing how to get out of a relationship rut, explaining what we do to take stock of what's working in our marriage and what isn't and how we communicate our expectations to each other.
We challenge you to change your perception of your partner by focusing on the good and doing things to make them feel special—and owning it when you fall short.
Listen in for insight on why you can't show up for your partner when you don't feel good about yourself and learn how to build a vision of where you want to go as a couple that honors your individual and collective growth.
