We spend months planning a wedding, but how much time do we invest in preparing our brains for a lifetime of connection? 

This episode explores how newlywed couples can build rock-solid emotional habits right from the start. You’ll discover why becoming a "repair expert" matters far more than avoiding conflict entirely, and how practicing joy when life is easy protects your bond when the train inevitably goes off the tracks.
