A Little Q&A Session

Art of Spousing

In this episode of "The Art of Spousing" podcast, hosts James and Lisa bring their unique perspectives to the table, discussing the complexities and joys of marriage and family life. We start off with a light-hearted reflection on our own experiences, setting the tone for an episode filled with warmth, humor, and insightful discussions.

They revisit a compelling Q&A session from a Re Engag gathering, focusing on pressing questions that resonate with many married couples. A significant part of the conversation revolves around the intricacies of nurturing intimacy in marriage, especially when balancing the demands of parenting. They introduce the concept of 'parent office hours,' a practical approach to carving out precious time for each other amidst the busy rhythms of family life.

Diving into the theme of trust and transparency, James and Lisa discuss the delicate balance of managing personal devices and friendships within a marriage. Emphasizing voluntary transparency over control, we share our thoughts on building a foundation of trust and openness in a relationship.

Addressing the often-misunderstood dynamics of parenting, they challenge the notion that children are a distraction to marriage. Instead, they explore how children can actually enrich the marital bond. We offer strategies for handling different stages of child development, emphasizing the impact on marital health and unity.

The conversation also covers the sensitive topic of setting boundaries with extended family and in-laws. James and Lisa stress the importance of prioritizing the marital relationship while maintaining respectful and healthy relationships with extended family members.

Lastly, they touch upon the importance of spiritual guidance in making major life decisions. James and Lisa highlight the need for unity and collaboration within marriage, especially when faced with significant choices.
