Take the First Step Towards a Stronger Relationship.
Showing Up in Your Marriage (For You, Too)
In marriage, we often focus on showing up for our spouse and our children… but sometimes we forget to show up for ourselves.
A healthy marriage doesn’t require you to disappear — it requires you to be present, whole, and emotionally available.
When you honor your own well-being, you strengthen the love you bring into your home.
Showing up for you means:
• Checking in with your emotions instead of pushing them down
• Being honest about what you need, not just what others need
• Making space for rest without guilt
• Taking care of your physical, spiritual, and mental health
• Growing in the areas that help you love better
When you show up for you, you show up stronger for your marriage.

What It Looks Like When You’re Not Showing Up for Yourself
• You feel overwhelmed but keep saying “I’m fine”
• You shut down instead of communicating
• You feel resentment building from unspoken needs
• You’re exhausted but won’t ask for help
• You disconnect from your spouse emotionally
• You forget what brings you joy outside of roles and responsibilities
⸻
Ways to Start Showing Up for You
1. Practice daily emotional check-ins.
Ask yourself: What am I feeling? What do I need today?
2. Set boundaries with love.
Boundaries aren’t walls — they’re clarity.
3. Schedule time every week that’s just for you.
A walk, journaling, prayer, sitting in silence, a hobby — something that fills your cup.
4. Speak your needs without apologizing.
Your voice matters in your marriage.
5. Get support when needed.
Coaching, counseling, or a trusted couple mentor can help you breathe again.
6. Celebrate your growth, not just your responsibilities.
Your personal development strengthens your partnership.

What Does Being Self-Aware Look Like in a Marriage?
In marriage, self-awareness is the quiet strength behind healthy communication, emotional safety, and real connection. It’s knowing your own patterns, triggers, needs, and blind spots—and understanding how they show up with your spouse. When you can see you clearly, you show up better for us.
💔 How Lack of Self-Awareness Can Hinder a Relationship
• Reacting instead of responding
• Difficulty taking accountability
• Misinterpreting your spouse’s intentions
• Holding onto pride instead of practicing humility
• Blaming your spouse for unmet needs you haven’t communicated
• Emotional outbursts that feel “out of nowhere”
• Repeating the same unhealthy cycles without understanding why
❤️ How Self-Awareness Can Strengthen & Enhance Marriage
• More thoughtful, grounded communication
• Ability to pause, reflect, and respond with intention
• Healthier boundaries and emotional regulation
• Understanding your emotional triggers before they spill over
• Taking responsibility for your part in conflicts
• Creating space for empathy—seeing your spouse’s heart, not just their actions
• Building deeper intimacy through honesty and vulnerability
Self-awareness is not about perfection—it’s about growth. When you commit to understanding yourself, you open the door to understanding your spouse. And that’s where stronger, healthier love begins. 💛

💛 Hearing the Heart of Your Spouse 💛
Sometimes the loudest part of your marriage isn’t the words being spoken… it’s the feelings underneath them.
In every relationship, there comes a moment when God nudges us to lean in a little closer—not to respond, not to defend, but to truly hear the heart of the one we love.
Hearing your spouse’s heart means:
✨ Slowing down enough to notice what their silence is saying
✨ Listening past the tone and into the tenderness
✨ Making room for their fears, their hopes, and even the things they struggle to express
✨ Choosing connection over correction
Your spouse doesn’t always need you to fix anything—sometimes they just need to know they’re safe with you.
Safe to speak.
Safe to feel.
Safe to be fully seen.
When we hear each other’s hearts, walls crumble, trust grows, and love gets a fresh place to breathe.
Today, slow down. Lean in.
Ask your spouse, “What’s on your heart right now?”
Then listen—not just with your ears, but with your compassion.
Marriage deepens when the heart is heard. 💛

Are you doing enough?
Let’s talk about it.
Does your spouse feel alone or disconnected… like they’re just a shell with no inner being? Have you taken a moment to ask if there’s anything you could be doing more of—or maybe less of?
There’s no way to really know how your marriage is doing without communication. It truly is the key. Open ears and an open heart. Will you always agree? No. But every person deserves to be heard.
“Be completely humble and gentle; be patient, bearing with one another in love.” — Ephesians 4:2
If you need help communicating, building, or strengthening your marriage—we’re here for you.

“How can I be a better spouse?” or “What can I do to better serve you?”
Two powerful questions that can be hard to ask—and even harder to answer when we don’t fully understand our own needs.
This uncertainty can quietly create distance in a relationship. Have you ever felt like your spouse wasn’t doing enough, but when the disagreement came up, you couldn’t quite explain what it was you needed?
That’s where understanding love languages becomes so important. It’s not just about what we say or do—it’s about learning to love our spouse in the way they best receive it. Because if you’re only speaking your own love language, you might be missing theirs entirely.
💞 Take the time to discover what fills your spouse’s love tank and what speaks to their heart. It’s one of the simplest ways to build connection, understanding, and peace within your marriage.
✨ “Let all that you do be done in love.” — 1 Corinthians 16:14

A little revelation by way of the chickens 🐔
The chickens really love dandelions, so every now and then I’ll pick a few to hand-feed them. Two of them especially enjoy the flowers, but unlike the others, they’re not as aggressive—so sometimes they miss out.
Today, I picked a few dandelions and tried to feed those two individually. But instead of taking what I was offering, they kept running past me to see what the others were getting. Later, they circled back, trying to get what I had originally set aside just for them.
And right then—it hit me.
How often do we do that in marriage? God’s holding something specifically for your union—healing, peace, purpose—but sometimes couples get so focused on what other relationships look like that they miss what God is trying to hand them directly.
Maybe He’s shaping something in your marriage that looks different from what He’s doing in someone else’s. The journey, the process, the oil—it’s not the same. What He’s refining in you and your spouse is unique to your assignment together.
Stop looking down the street comparing your relationship to someone else’s highlight reel. Look at what God is doing right where you are.
There’s something beautiful He’s trying to hand you—if you’ll pause long enough to receive it. 💛

Participation Post 💬
I’m just sitting here thinking about this new generation of marriages coming up… and it made me reflect on a piece of advice that’s always stuck with me. There are so many ways to invite growth, love, and connection into your marriage — so I’m curious…
✨ What’s one (okay, maybe two) pieces of advice someone gave you about marriage that you still remember — and why do you hold it close?
I’ll start…
💛 Take interest in each other’s interests.
This one has been huge for us. It’s opened new ways to connect and spend time together. How can we truly nurture one another if we don’t take time to appreciate the gifts and passions God placed in our spouse?
💍 You are still a wife.
Whew… this one hit deep during a stormy season. Because truth is, sometimes we get rubbed the wrong way and want to stop all tasks (you know what I mean 😂). But God said “’til death do you part” — not “until things go sideways.”
Now it’s your turn — drop yours below 👇🏽 Let’s pour some wisdom into this next generation of marriages. 💕
