Marriage - Learning to Forgive

In marriage, you have to give a little and expect a little. No one is perfect, and we can not go into a relationship thinking we will change the other person. The only person you can change is yourself, which is one thing you need to remember in a relationship. Today we talked about our relationship. We have been together a long time and have been through most trials that a relationship will face, and we made it through to the other side. We talk about everything from arguing about what food we are going to eat to infidelity. We are not scared to share the bumps, bruises, and skeletons, along with all of the good.

Why Listen To The Standing Stronger Podcast

The Standing Stronger Podcast was first launched in 2014 and has since garnered over 1 million downloads and has been listened to across the world. The show started as we navigated through the murky waters of mental health and then began to morph into a show about success in life, marriage, and business.Then, as it tends to happen, life got in the way, and we took a hiatus. We are beyond blessed to announce that we were able to grow our businesses, our life, and our marriage during that hiatus. We are excited to bring the show back and look forward to sharing the journey with you every Monday.
