Field Guide for Marriage- A 24/7 Marriage Podcast

Why Living Like You’re Single While Married Isn’t Working

Javier & Shannan Labrador Season 5 Episode 61

 Marriage isn’t meant to be a solo act. Trying to live independently while expecting your spouse to just go with it creates distance, frustration, and disconnection. In this episode, we’ll dive into why true freedom comes from unity, not independence, and how shifting from “me” to “we” can transform your marriage.
