Rebuilding Us: Marriage Podcast

Are you steadily losing interest in your marriage or relationship? Have past hurts, disappointments, or rejection taken its toll on you or your partner? Join me and my husband, Shaun, today, for a conversation about apathy and how it is silently killing your marriage or relationships. Apathy is one of the undetected obstacles that plague many relationships. A partner is repeatedly offended and instead of continuing to move toward his/her spouse, he/she begins to clam up and move away from (or disconnect from his/her spouse. Left unattended that indifference becomes a lack of interest that will threaten to keep you emotionally (and eventually physically) seperated. Many married couples (and those who aren't yet married) experience bouts of apathy and indifference. Is that normal? I would venture to say that there will always be some level of drifting in every relationship, but when it becomes prolonged, that's when it becomes a major problem. Shaun and I share from our experience on how hurt feelings, the silent treatment, and misunderstandings nearly destroyed our intimacy. This is one conversation all married people need to hear. Your relationship is worth your time, energy, and attention. Don't allow the fear of rejection or past wounds to steal from the beautiful possibilities of what can be. Stay with us as we launch season 2 of the podcast where we will dive into all five relationship mistakes that are wrecking your life from my newest ebook, The 5 Relationship Mistakes that are Wrecking Your Life.

Many of us have experienced childhood trauma that, unbeknownst to us, affects our marriage. Today's guests, Javier and Christina Llerena's marriage fell apart after a few years due to unresolved pain, unforgiveness, and a bout with depression. The Llerena's realized quickly that in order for their marriage to heal, they would need to do some real, internal work and surround themselves with a community of faith . . . specifically, other married couples who could support them in their dark season. On this episode, we discuss the value of premarital counseling and what the red flags the Llerena's missed before getting married. There is also a cultural nuance in their marriage . . .

Welcome to Real Relationship Talk, a podcast about marriage, family, dating, friendships, and all things relationships. I'm so glad you're here! I am your host, Dana Che (pronounced Day-na Shay). I have been preparing this show for years, and I have been being prepared just as long. I wanted to create a show where real people with real issues could find real solutions to their real relationships. I want our times together to be fruitful, joyful, and mutually beneficial. To that end, I carefully choose the relationship experts I have on the show with you in mind. No fakers allowed. And, you can trust that I will ask the questions you are thinking. Relationship podcasts abound, so what makes this one different? We will address relationships holistically. For example, you can't really have a solid marriage if you're still wounded from childhood. You can't have fulfilling friendships when you haven't learned how to love yourself. I want you to feel confident in the episodes I share. And, of course, we will always keep it real!
