13. Marriage: Make it Last
Ask anyone who is married and they will tell you it's hard work. If they say it's not, they're lying. I talk with marriage therapist Mike Vaughn about some strategies we can use to improve our relationships. He talks about the importance of maintaining a friendship and how to get through an argument in a way that's honoring to your partner. Mike also tells us about the positivity/negativity ratio and the number positive interactions you need to have with your spouse to combat one negative encounter. Here's a hint: it's not one to one. And Mike tells us the one thing you should never do when you're having a disagreement with your spouse. Instagram: @Colleen_Odegaard www.ColleenOdegaard.com www.SureHopeCounseling.com
