Ep. 21 In-Laws: Making it Work | How to Have a Better Relationship With Your In-Laws

In-law relationships can be great… and also really hard. And what most couples don’t realize is how quickly in-law stress turns into marriage stress.

In Part 2 of my in-laws series, I’m sharing 3 simple strategies that work to help you build a better relationship with your in-laws while also protecting your marriage - with clear boundaries, better communication, and practical scripts you can use in real life.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• The critical role of the adult child in in-law dynamics

• How to set healthy boundaries with in-laws (clear AND kind)

• What to say when things feel awkward, tense, or triggering

• How to stay on the same team with your spouse during family stress

• A simple “pre-game” plan that helps couples avoid conflict after visits

Whether you’re navigating tension with a mother-in-law, father-in-law, daughter-in-law, or son-in-law, this episode will help you create more peace, clarity, and connection - without resentment.
