12. How to Connect More Deeply with your Husband in the Busyness of Life & Parenthood: 6 Questions for Meaningful Conversation, to Nurture Greater Emotional Intimacy in Marriage

In the busyness of life & motherhood do you feel like there’s a bit more distance between you & your husband than you’d like?

Do you long for deeper physical, mental, emotional, & spiritual intimacy but not know where to start, how to communicate how you’re really feeling, or struggle finding time to deeply connect with each other?

-Maybe you’re finding yourself disappointed your husband isn’t really seeing you, meeting your needs, or appreciating all that you do.

-Maybe you wish he’d step up more around the house so you don’t have to feel the pressure to do it all or carry so much of the load.

-Maybe your crazy schedules & the emotional disconnect, or the physical changes through pregnancy & postpartum are impacting your physical intimacy.

The transitions into and through parenthood bring HUGE changes into our marriage relationship and all of a sudden it's easy to miss the WE that we had before, and how easy it used to be to feel more connected.

And whenever we’re tired, stressed, overworked or overwhelmed from caring for kids, managing work, the home, & life, it’s natural to feel the strain. Like there's less deep connection & more tension.

You are not alone. This was us too. This can be a big struggle but there is so much hope. This is one of the topics that comes up most often in my coaching.

Even if things are going fairly well and you're great teammates, God doesn’t want you to settle for feeling like passing ships or roommates.

It’s possible to reconnect, grow in intimacy, & experience transformation in your marriage so your marriage feels alive again!

Give this short episode a listen to learn 6 powerful questions to spark deeper connection with the heart of your spouse — this is an easy way to find the time to nurture your marriage & stay more connected, even with little babies & busy work-lives.

I pray this blesses your relationship as it has ours.
