Thanksgiving is right around the corner! While we love gathering, the holiday season can quickly become exhausting if we don't protect our peace. Setting boundaries isn't mean; it's necessary for managing your energy and reducing resentment. This is where knowing your core priorities comes in. Use this simple boundary framework to decide where your time and energy should go: 1. He: Your spiritual health and connection (God). 2. Me: Your personal rest and self-care. 3. We: Your marriage (You and your spouse). 4. Us: Your immediate family/kids (You, spouse, and children). 5. Them: Everyone else (Extended family, work, extra parties, etc.). When your He, Me, We, and Us needs are met, you have more quality energy for Them. If prioritizing your "We" means saying no to an extra obligation, that's okay! Application Question: What is one "Them" obligation are you going to intentionally say "no" or "not this year" to, in order to protect your "Me" or "We" time this holiday season? Let us know in the comments!

So I have been served already. The first court date was a week ago. We stay in separate rooms in the house. Barely talk and when we do it’s usually an argument. Kinda stuck and don’t know how to interact calmly. All I want to do is work out issues but she doesn’t care to discuss anything. I feel stuck and this process is moving faster than I anticipated. Any advice would be great

We want this community to feel like a safe space where we can all support each other's marriage journeys. Let's start with introductions! You can use this simple format: Hey, I'm from ________________. I'm here because ________________. The biggest thing I'm working on in my marriage right now is ________________. Examples: - "Hey, I'm Sarah from Texas. I'm here because we keep having the same fights over and over and I'm exhausted." - "I'm Mike from Ohio. I'm here because my wife and I feel like roommates and I want that spark back." - "I'm Lisa from Florida. I'm here because my husband won't engage in fixing our problems and I'm trying to figure out how to create change on my own." - No judgment here - just real people working on real relationships. The more we know about each other, the better we can support and encourage one another. Drop your intro below! 👇
