Marriage & Motherhood - How To Reconnect With Your Spouse After Kids
Motherhood changes everything... including your marriage.
If you’re a mom who feels disconnected from your husband, stuck in roommate mode, or exhausted by the constant tension, miscommunication, or emotional distance after kids, this podcast is for you.
Join Marriage Coach Michelle Purta each week to learn how to strengthen your marriage without waiting until the kids are grown. Each episode offers practical communication tools, mindset shifts, and real conversations that help you rebuild emotional connection, navigate conflict without escalation, and feel like true partners again...not just co-parents managing a household.
This show is especially for you if you want to:
• Communicate clearly without shutdowns or blow-ups
• Reduce resentment and mental load in motherhood and marriage
• Reconnect emotionally and rebuild intimacy after kids
• Create a healthier, more connected marriage in the middle of busy family life
Having a strong marriage is all about learning the right skills, not about being perfect.
This podcast is your weekly reminder that you don’t have to choose between being a great mom and having a deeply connected marriage.

Most couples don’t struggle because they don’t love each other. They struggle because they were never taught how to communicate, regulate, and stay connected under stress.
As I close out the year, I wanted to give you a gift. Instead of another tip or hack, I’m sharing the patterns and lessons I saw come up again and again in my client sessions this year.
These are lessons learned in the midst of busy lives and chances are, you’ll recognize yourself in at least one of them.
In this episode, I break down six of the biggest takeaways that helped my clients transform their marriage in 2025.
If you feel stuck in the same cycles or unsure what to focus on next in your marriage, this episode will help you zoom out, reflect, and choose a more intentional path forward.
