Creating Boundaries in Your Marriage (Episode 36)
In this episode, we talk all about boundaries in marriage and how setting up intentional guardrails can save your marriage. In a culture that undervalues marriage, it’s vital that we are adamant about coming together and protecting ourselves and our spouses. The time to set up these boundaries is not after something happens but before. We have sat across from so many couples that have told us that they wish they would have done this before because it would have saved them a world of heartache and pain.
Marriage is sacred and should be treated as such. We discuss how we remain accountable to one another, what boundaries and guardrails we have in place, and how we believe that by doing this you can protect and guard your relationship, your family, and your future. From open phones, passwords, and access to each other’s accounts we don’t hold back.
Join us in a conversation that we hope will get you thinking about what guardrails you can set in your marriage.
What I Wish I Would Have Known Before I Got Married
In this episode, we share honestly about what we wish we would have known before we got married. We received A LOT of advice, some unsolicited, some helpful but there are so many things that we wish we would have known. We are going to share it with you and we want to hear what you wish someone would have told you. There were times when we were newly married that we both felt like we were looking at a stranger. Who did I marry?
Marriage is full of layers and as time goes on different things come out into the open and are revealed that oftentimes feel very out of the blue for one of you. The goal now is to navigate those things well; with grace and compassion but that doesn’t mean that you are not a bit shocked when they come up.
Julian literally thought that being married meant he would be having sex whenever he wanted…rude awakening. And Brittany was a bit disappointed when she discovered Julian couldn’t fix everything like her dad could.
Make sure to listen and let us what you wish someone would have told you before you got married!

Comparison Kills
Tune in to the Young Dumb and in Love Podcast as Julian and Brittany dive into the topic of how comparison can be the silent marriage killer. We've all been guilty of peeking over the fence, thinking the grass is greener on the other side. But, as they discuss, constantly comparing your relationship to others can drive a wedge between you and your spouse. Discover how to shift your focus back to your own marriage and leave comparisons behind.
From Pit to Promise
Join us as we share honestly about two summers ago when Julian came home and told me that he had lost his job, I was in shock. In that moment I knew that I was faced with a choice to react out of fear or take a breath and react from a place of love. By the grace of God, I chose the latter. We talk openly and honestly about what the past two years have been like for us and what we have learned. Julian opens up about what it was like to grieve the loss of what he thought that he would do for the rest of his life, as well as what it has been like to pivot and trust God with the details. He shares how wives can support their husbands when they are walking through a season of struggle.
Let’s all be honest; we want the pretty and the perfect in marriage, and the truth is life is hard, and tough things happen. We must be able to be strong and stand firm in what we know that we are meant to do. These last two years have taught us so much and we have learned to lean on each other more than ever before.
Cheers to tears.

Communication Can Save Your Marriage
Good communication is essential to a successful marriage. When couples are able to openly and honestly express their needs, wants, and feelings to each other, they have a much better chance of creating and maintaining a healthy relationship.
It can be difficult to keep communication open and positive, especially during times of stress or disagreement. One way to ensure that communication remains constructive is to practice active listening. This means really hearing what your partner is saying, without getting defensive or judgmental.
Responding to Chaos
Today we had the opportunity of talking with Tevin & Morgan Lucas about their journey of being newlyweds, new parents, and uprooting their entire life in the midst of it all. When life gets hard you have the ability to choose how to respond to the chaos. You can fight and let it ruin your marriage or you can choose to face it head-on together and grow! If you choose to grow you will look back one day and use it as a foundation for future challenges that may come your way.
Your marriage requires you to be a team. Teammates cheer each other on. Teammates win together. Teammates lose together. Teammates grow together.
