Marriage & Motherhood - How To Reconnect With Your Spouse After Kids
Motherhood changes everything, including your marriage.
If you’re a mom who feels stuck having the same arguments on repeat, disconnected from your partner, or like you’ve slipped into roommate mode filled with resentment and tension, you’re not alone and your relationship isn’t broken.
Welcome to The Marriage & Motherhood Podcast.
I’m Michelle Purta, mom of 3, marriage coach, and I help couples understand and shift the communication patterns that keep them stuck so they can rebuild connection, strengthen their partnership, and feel like an "us" again.
Each week, you’ll learn how to navigate marriage and motherhood with better communication, emotional awareness, and practical conflict resolution tools that actually work in real life.
We go beyond surface-level advice and focus on what’s really driving the disconnection like reactive cycles, emotional shutdown, miscommunication, and unresolved resentment.
This podcast is for couples who want to:
- break the cycle of repeating arguments
- communicate clearly without shutdowns or blowups
- resolve conflict in a way that builds connection instead of resentment
- move out of roommate mode and back into a connected partnership
You’ll learn the skills to shift your patterns, improve communication, and create a more connected, supportive marriage while you're knee deep in parenthood.
Because a strong relationship isn’t about avoiding conflict. It’s about knowing how to move through it together.
If you’re ready to stop having the same fight and start feeling like a team again, you’re in the right place.

Before you can create the relationship you want with your partner or your kids, you have to build a healthy one with yourself.
Many women lose themselves somewhere between wife and mom. The roles pile up, the needs of others take over, and suddenly the woman underneath feels like a stranger. But the truth is — every relationship you have mirrors the one you have with yourself.
In this powerful conversation, I’m joined by Evelyn LaVasseur, an Identity Coach who helps women reconnect with who they are underneath all the roles. Together, we explore what it means to have a relationship with self, how our upbringing shapes that connection, and why reclaiming it is essential for a fulfilling marriage and experience of motherhood.
Listen now to learn how to improve your relationship with yourself and watch how doing so shifts your relationships for the better.
