When you become parents, your marriage matters more not less.
Why? Because now, other people are counting on you. The love and teamwork you model sets the foundation for their sense of safety and connection. As parents, you are your children’s role models and they are learning what healthy relationships look like from you. Are you satisfied with what you are showing them?

Something that I share with my married couples and I truly believe is “Growing together in a connected marriage is like growing a garden. It takes patience, commitment and lots of nurturing.” In Florida we have a lot of beautiful places to see the beauty of nature as flowers grow, especially in South Florida. As a marriage therapist, I have the privilege to see the beauty of a relationship as couples learn and grow in couples counseling.

When I am working with couples, one of the topics that usually comes up is the need for self care because one spouse or both feel overwhelmed and exhausted. An essential part of life is taking time for self care and yet that is the part that usually gets cut when life gets busy. There is a famous saying that you can’t pour from an empty cup and it is true. If you have nothing to give because you are depleted, then your marriage, your home life and your work life will all suffer. Self care is not being selfish, it is important to recharge yourself so you can be a better individual, spouse and parent. So find time to go for a walk, go to the gym, read a book, talk to friend or watch your favorite show. Do something for yourself that will recharge you.
