As a married couple, we have always believed in maintaining our independence, nurturing our own interests, and, yes, having our own circle of friends. Don't get us wrong, our marriage is our priority, but we've seen firsthand how friendships outside of it can add so much richness to our lives.

Friendships can have a major impact on your health and well-being. And not just your own well-being but the well-being of your marriage or romantic relationship.

Your spouse will not always meet all of your needs. It is important to try to get your needs met in other ways as well, instead of depending on your partner and then feeling disappointed in their ability to always meet your needs.

In this podcast, we're diving into why these friendships are more than just a nice-to-have. From boosting your mental and physical health to helping you weather life's storms, friends are our support system. Plus, they keep things interesting, offering fresh perspectives and encouraging us to chase our passions.

Join us as we explore the myriad benefits of fostering friendships outside of marriage. After all, a happy marriage is built on a foundation of happy, fulfilled individuals - and having friends outside of it is a key ingredient to that recipe.
