Nurturing Your Marriage :: Brent and Janis Sharpe [Ep 299]

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Marriage can be really hard. You start out so in love and excited but over time the daily strain of work, home, and parenting makes it challenging to connect with your spouse. Add a global pandemic and the strain is just overwhelming. </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">My guests Brent and Janis Sharpe are both Licensed Marriage and Family Therapists who have been married for 42 years. They are passionate about helping couples have healthy and thriving marriages even in the hardest of times. </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“Most marriages are dealing with malnutrition. They're feeding everything else in their life… all the demands of children, the demands of taking care of a house, the demands of their job. And by the end of the day, they're just spent and they don't have much energy to move back towards each other. So finding little ways that we can move back towards one another and care for each other is significant.”</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">We talk about healthy habits that we start right now to give our marriages a boost and they aren’t what you might expect. What is so encouraging about the tips they share is how simple and small these habits are and the big impact they can make.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Don't miss the 90/10 lie! </span></p> <h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">Connect with Brent and Janis: </span></h2> <ul> <li style="font-weight: 400;"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">Website:</span> <a href= "https://www.brentandjanissharpe.com"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">brentandjanissharpe.com</span></a><span style= "font-weight: 400;"> </span></li> <li style="font-weight: 400;"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">Counseling Practice:</span> <a href= "https://www.lifeconnectioncounseling.com/"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">lifeconnectioncounseling.com</span></a></li> </ul> <h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">Links Mentioned:  </span></h2> <ul> <li style="font-weight: 400;"><span style="font-weigh
