Year-End Marriage Reset: 3 Questions to Rebuild Intimacy

Is your marriage stuck in survival mode as you crawl toward the end of the year? In this episode of the Weaponized Marriage Podcast, we walk through our own year-end marriage reset and the 3 questions that helped us rebuild emotional safety and intimacy. This is for married entrepreneurs and busy parents who feel like they’re always bracing for impact and want to feel connected again.

What You’ll Learn / Highlights

• The simple 3-question framework: what to let go of, what to rework, and what to invest in in your marriage for 2026.

• How Kendra went from walking on eggshells to feeling safer sharing how she really feels.

• Why Ryan’s instinct to “do more” was actually hurting intimacy—and what changed when he focused on equanimity and emotional safety instead.

• The real difference between coexisting and co-creating your marriage (and how to tell which one you’re in).

• A practical end-of-year exercise you can do with your spouse to talk about what’s working, what’s not, and course corrections—without it turning into a fight.

• How to redefine slowing down as “letting the miracles catch up to you,” especially for high-achieving, hustle-mode couples.

• Why counting your wins in marriage first changes the energy before you talk about problems or vision-casting for 2026.
