Marriage, Support and Communication: A Start-Up Story

Is our marriage more like a Start-Up or a Merger?

We talk about Arthur C. Brooks’ article from The Atlantic, “Why the Most Successful Marriages Are Start-Ups, Not Mergers.” It was a quick read that left us with much to talk about. Listen in to how we operate in our marriage as we ponder if we are a Start-up or a Merger.

There are, and have been, shifting dynamics within our partnership as we’ve grow as individuals and as partners. As we keep moving forward together on this journey, we know our foundation is based on communication and empathy. What works for us? What works for you?

Laura wants to go on more date nights and they both wonder if Keith is on the verge of a midlife crisis!? 🏎️ 🤨

It’s always good to check in and see what is and isn’t working.

Thanks for joining us.
