    EP 104: Military Leadership Principles that are Good for Your Relationship
    May 15 2022

    Welcome to the Relationship Fitness Podcast! A big part of making a relationship great is learning how not to f*** it up. We all have to learn from our mistakes! I’m taking military leadership principles and applying them to relationship fitness. Join me to learn more!

     

    Be a leader in your relationship

    Being a leader doesn’t mean being the boss who is always in charge and makes all the rules. That kind of leadership won’t work in relationships. The best relationships have co-leaders, where each partner is a leader. In the military, leadership is all about getting people to do what needs to be done; in a relationship, each partner has to exert leadership in their role for things to go smoothly. 

     

    Great leaders build up and encourage others to be leaders

    The most effective leadership is about creating a team of future leaders. If you want your team or partnership to work effectively, communication is the key. Each person has the way they like to communicate, and not every person responds well to authority and commands. In a relationship, you have to learn how to communicate in ways that your partner responds to and understands. You want your partner to be their own kind of leader in their role in the relationship. 

     

    There is no black and white when it comes to communication

    I know what it’s like to have very different communication styles in marriage. My military background contributed to my communication style, and my partner didn’t respond to it or completely understand it. If you’re in this situation, you have to continue to learn and grow in order to relate to your partner and coexist in harmony. Understand that sometimes you are the leader, and sometimes you are the follower. A good relationship requires give and take in many of those gray areas. Always remember that a leader can be the coach AND the cheerleader. Never stop being the biggest cheerleader for your spouse!



    ***Leave me your feedback. I’d love to know how you are applying good leadership and communication in your relationship. Share the podcast with someone else who can use some Relationship Fitness. Your relationship fitness matters! You are not just raising children, but someone’s future spouse and someone’s future parent. Go out there and be loving, kind, patient, and generous! Let’s help save the world--one relationship at a time!

  • EP 103: Relationship Tips for Every Couple

    EP 103: Relationship Tips for Every Couple
    May 8 2022
    Welcome to the Relationship Fitness Podcast! Today’s episode is about relationship tips that every couple can use. These tips may sound like common sense, but as I’ve heard many times, “Common sense is not always common practice.” Join me to learn more!   Don’t take things for granted You can’t rely on how things appear on the surface, but you have to dig deeper. This certainly applies to relationships. When it comes to making connections and maintaining closeness with your partner, you have to pay attention to the deep things. Just dealing with surface problems will only lead to divorce, alimony, child support, and a host of other undesirable situations that won’t fulfill the dreams you have for your life.    Relationship tips every couple can use   Reintroduce meaningful communication into your relationship. The keyword there is meaningful. Be diligent about talking with each other, no matter how busy your lives are. Don’t leave your communication on the surface level.    Don’t become demanding in the way you speak to your spouse. It’s important to still be NICE to each other. If you can’t be nice, you are already on the slippery slope to divorce.    Be sincere about your love. Don’t relax and take your love for granted. Be “on purpose” with your love for your partner.    Share hobbies together. You don’t have to do EVERYTHING together, but there needs to be some activities, tasks, or fun things that you can both enjoy together.   Acknowledge freely. Continue to find reasons to acknowledge your spouse and say “thank you” every single day. The little things matter and they add up over time to build your true love connectedness.   Go to bed together. Different schedules may make this difficult, but it’s important to unwind and disconnect from everything (and everyone) else together.  ***Leave me your feedback. Let me know how you are improving your connection with your spouse. Share the podcast with someone else who can use some Relationship Fitness. We can help others in their relationships.

  • EP 102: Why Love and Passion are Not Enough

    EP 102: Why Love and Passion are Not Enough
    May 1 2022
    Welcome to another episode of the Relationship Fitness Podcast! We all know that love and passion should be parts of every great relationship, right? My message today is that love and passion are not enough to make your relationship extraordinary. Love and passion are just emotions that we feel inside, and they can only affect your relationship if you take action on them. Join me for more!   It really is “all in your head” I remember a time in high school when there was a certain young lady who caught my eye. I thought she was the ideal dream girl for me, and I had so much passion and puppy love for her. The problem was that I could never tell her how I felt about her because I felt unworthy and feared taking that risk. In my mind, though, I was in love with her. The lesson applies to our adult relationships in that so much of our relationship happens only in our thoughts. All our perceptions, self-doubt, emotions, and limitations we feel are part of an internal dialogue that is constantly running in our minds.    Get out of your head It is not enough to have passion in your head and love in your heart for your spouse. Even the empathy, compassion, patience, and kindness we feel toward other people is not enough if it just stays in our heads. We have to show these feelings in our actions. We can tell someone that we love them every single day, but those are empty words if they aren’t backed up by actions. We need to do the little things every day to show our partner that our love goes far beyond our words.    Make connections Whether it’s with your parents, siblings, children, or your partner, you have to do the things it takes to make human connections. It could be as simple as reminiscing about good times in the past and reflecting on memories, and that’s a great way to connect as long as we don’t get hung up on the past at the expense of the present. Don’t be content to let your relationship live in your head. Be proactive in your communication and connection. Show your partner every day that you love them and are living up to your vows and promises. ***Leave me your feedback. I want to hear how you are taking action to show your love and passion and how you wish your spouse would take action in showing love to you. Be a Relationship Warrior who fights hard for your marriage. Your relationship fitness matters! You are not just raising children, but someone’s future spouse and someone’s future parent.
