WHOA. This gets deep, everybody. We may have been a little bit too honest in this episode, but honesty is the best policy, right?! (In marriage it sure is!) Join both of us in a very open conversation about some advice that has either been helpful, or not so much, in OUR marriage! Is it really a good idea to “never go to bed angry”?

Plus, we will catch you up on our trip to Hawaii, Maren will do some massive eye-rolling, and we will share some quick tips for marriage success! We are not professionals, we have just been there! We hope you enjoy a short peek into our marriage, and that it allows you to feel free to open up about what has worked (or NOT) for you! Lastly, we will announce the date and time in which we will pick the DISNEYLAND GIVEAWAY WINNER! As always, we’d love your feedback!
