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.

Your body isn’t broken. It just needs a different approach.
If you’ve hit your late 30s or 40s and suddenly feel like nothing is working anymore… you’re not imagining it.
The strategies that used to “just work” stop working — and most women are left feeling frustrated, confused, and honestly… a little betrayed by their bodies.
In this episode, I am joined by Health and Fitness Coach Emily Erb to talk about what’s actually happening in your body, why traditional dieting fails, and how to fuel yourself in a way that feels sustainable, supportive, and freeing.
We’re not talking about restriction.
We’re not talking about cutting out your favorite foods.
We’re talking about understanding your body — so you can finally work with it instead of against it.
Inside this episode, we cover:
- Why your metabolism changes in your 30s and beyond
- What “metabolic adaptation” is
- The truth about calorie counting vs macro counting
- Why restriction leads to binge cycles
- How to eat dessert and still reach your goals
- Why protein matters (and how to increase it realistically)
- The real reason most women struggle with consistency
- How to build trust with yourself around food
- Why mindset and inner work matter more than you think
If you’ve been feeling stuck, frustrated, or like your body is working against you… this episode will help you understand why — and what to do differently.
