If you ever feel like a completely different version of yourself when you’re under stress—snappy, shut down, or just plain tapped out—you’re not alone. 

Stress doesn’t just impact how you feel in your body. It can totally hijack how you show up in your relationships… especially your marriage.

In this episode, I’m joined by licensed marriage and family therapist Elizabeth Earnshaw, and we’re unpacking how unprocessed stress silently fuels miscommunication, emotional disconnection, resentment, and repeated blow-ups in partnership—even when you love each other deeply.

You’ll learn how stress physically rewires the way you interact, and why you keep reacting in ways that don’t reflect who you really are.

We’re diving into:

✔️ The two types of stress that show up in marriage—and how to tell the difference
 ✔️ Why your brain shuts down communication and turns conflict into a battlefield
 ✔️ How to recognize when you’re about to “pop” and how to stop the spiral

If you’ve ever walked away from a conversation thinking, “Why did I say that?” or “Why do we keep having the same fight?”—this episode is a must-listen.

🎧 Press play to learn the tools to communicate more clearly, love more deeply, and co-regulate more effectively in the moments that matter most.
